About 27 Teo Hong Road
27 Teo Hong Road (Singapore 088334) is a conserved pre-war shophouse in postal District 2, on the short street linking Bukit Pasoh Road with New Bridge Road. It is strata-titled and managed under MCST 1509. The ground floor is known to food lovers as the address where the patisserie and restaurant Mad About Sucre opened in 2015.
Published detail on the building itself is thin, so this page covers the conservation area around it. Bukit Pasoh was among the first historic districts protected in Singapore. URA gazetted it on 7 July 1989, together with the other Chinatown sub-districts, Boat Quay, Little India and Kampong Glam. Shophouses along Keong Saik Road were added in April 1990, and more on Teck Lim Road in October 1991.
