Ah Pui, who reopened Ah Pui Satay in April this year at a Toa Payoh stalls heart after a one-and-a-half-year break, was famous for his slender Hainanese-style charcoal-grilled meat satay.

The stall later left to open a standalone restaurant on Smith Street with his 57-year-old servant, Ang Thiam Seng ( also known as Seng ), but the pair ended their relationship in November 2022 due to Ah Pui’s precarious health.  ,
