Healthy Lunch in the CBD: Warm Soup and Popiah With the Calories Listed

Most "healthy lunch in the CBD" lists say the same thing: a cold bowl of greens, grains and protein. That works for a lot of people. But some days you want something warm, you have under an hour, and you would like to know roughly what you're eating without building a bowl ingredient by ingredient.

This guide is for those days. We run two outlets in the CBD, at Tanjong Pagar and Raffles Place, and we publish calories for our soups and popiah. Below are the lunches we would point you to, with our published calories and the online prices on 11 November 2026, plus how to get them to your desk if you can't get away.

Traditional Popiah Souper Combo

Soup and popiah, with the calories listed

Our everyday lunch is a Souper Combo: one hand-rolled popiah, one bowl of soup and a focaccia bun. Pair a roll with a Regular (270 ml) bowl and most combinations land under 500 kcal. The figures below are for one popiah roll plus one Regular bowl of soup. The bun isn't included in the calories.
Lunch (1 roll + Regular soup) Calories Combo price online
Traditional Popiah + Classic French Onion 340 kcal $12.60
Seafood Wasabi Mayo Popiah + Classic French Onion 381 kcal $16.00
Sweet Thai Chicken Popiah + Classic French Onion 382 kcal $15.50

Sesame Chicken Popiah + Classic French Onion 409 kcal $15.00
Traditional Popiah + Boston Clam Chowder 436 kcal $12.90
Traditional Popiah + Souper Shroomy 457 kcal $12.60

Combo prices include the focaccia bun and are the online prices on souperstar.sg on 11 November 2026.

The full list of all 16 pairings, 14 of them under 500 kcal, is in our guide to soup and popiah pairings with calories. For per-item numbers, see popiah and soup calories.
Classic French Onion

Three ways to keep track of the calories

  1. Stay with a Regular bowl. A Large bowl holds about half as much again, so the calories go up with it.
  2. Compare the soups. Classic French Onion is 96 kcal a Regular bowl. The creamy soups (Creamy Tomato Basil, Boston Clam Chowder and Souper Shroomy) range from 157 to 213 kcal.
  3. Decide on the bun. The focaccia bun that comes with a combo isn't in the figures above. Keep it, share it, or save it for later.
Traditional Popiah

Why soup and popiah works at your desk

A popiah is a fresh roll, not a fried one: a thin handmade wheat skin, 56 kcal per piece, wrapped around slow-cooked turnip and vegetables. It's easy to eat between meetings, and it doesn't need reheating. The soup is the warm part of the meal. On a rainy afternoon or in a cold office, that is often what people miss most when they settle for a salad.

Our recipes are the same at every outlet and online, so the published calorie numbers apply whether you eat in, collect or order delivery.

Not on the calorie list (yet)

We also serve salads, stews with three-grain rice, Salmon Dashi Chazuke, sandwiches (at Guoco Tower only) and Chef's Special soups such as Creamy Thai Tom Yum. These haven't been tested yet, so we don't publish calorie numbers for them online, and we'd rather not guess. If you're counting, stick to the soup and popiah pairings above.

Some popular non-tested picks, with online prices:

Caesar Chicken Salad or Classic Roast Chicken Salad, $11.80 each; or add a soup and bun as a Salad Souper Combo, from $19.50.
Black Pepper Chicken Stew Combo, $16.50, with three-grain rice, mini salad and a focaccia bun.
Salmon Dashi Chazuke, $17.50: dashi with a hint of plum over three-grain rice, with salmon, nori and spring onion.

See everything on the in-store menu. Menu items may vary by outlet.
