A&W @ AEON Bukit Indah, Johor Bahru

A&W, you are dearly missed. Please come back to Singapore soon. Since A&W’s exit from Singapore in 2003, I’m sure many Singaporeans like myself who had grown up with one of our favourite childhood fast food chains must be craving for its root beer floats, waffles, coney dogs and curly fries for a long time.
