It’s hard to compare prices as some of the brands they carry are quite different from those you find at mainstream supermarkets. There are multiple Toko Warisan outlets across the island, but some may not carry frozen food or groceries. Click here for more store details.

The Meatery is the brainchild of husband and wife team Renga and Sophina. Finding it hard to get halal prime meat in Singapore supermarkets, they set up this halal gourmet butchery serving up cuts of premium imported meats, selected from ethical sources that don’t promote the use of antibiotics, GMOs, or growth hormones. Aficionados can indulge in premium beef selections including Australian Black Angus, Aus F1 Wagyu MS4/5 and Japanese A5/MBS10 Miyazaki Wagyu.

To make entertaining easy, it also offers services to bring out the best in your meat. These include a complimentary marination and meat rub service, and cutting and slicing your meat just how you want it for special dishes like yakiniku or shabu shabu. The custom BBQ Packages are also useful: based on your group’s size and preferences, they can recommend the right mix of halal meats (beef, lamb and chicken cuts) that are perfect for a barbeque with the option of marination, sous-vide and delivery for your convenience.
