Since I did this post on a Peek into Our Grocery Cart, a reader and friend was kind enough to share with me a lobang to buy fish! :D (She empathized, having many mouths in her family to feed too, that fish can be very dear to buy...) Thank you so much A.! So touched you took the time to care and share!
It's at a wholesaler in Jurong called Song Fish Dealer. I haven't gone before but I'll take her word for it and will be visiting soon! yay!
She writes:
You may wish to buy salmon from the wholesalers...we get ours from Song Fish. The last time I bought salmon, it cost $18/kg and with 6 to 7 pieces prepacked, it only cost less than $40. They sell a whole lot of other stuff too...including frozen food. Opposite them is Ben Foods, also sell wholesale...they are the ones who bring in Farmland Meat Patties. Only thing is Ben Foods open to public only on Saturdays, starting at 10am. Song Fish opens at 8am I think. If you do go, bring cooler bags or a big styrofoam box filled with ice to store the chilled purchases.
By the way, they do sell fresh batang fish, salmon, pomfret, prawns, squid etc. And they will scale, clean, cut and pack it to your specifications. The downside is, they only accept NETS or cash....
I get my fish from Fassler - they have a price list online, (and do delivery over a certain amount) or you can visit them in Woodlands. Check it out! :)

Hi Ed,
thanks for the lobang! Yes, I did try Fassler in Woodlands before. That would be a good place to get frozen fish. Thumbs up!
blessings,
