Overview

Kernel is a new Newmarket spot built around one ingredient: corn. The menu runs Taiwanese comfort food — generous braised pork rice sets, corn-forward sides, and fresh-pressed corn juice — served in a playful corn-themed space just off Broadway on Nuffield Street. Open seven days for lunch and dinner, it's an easy weekday feed or a low-key catch-up after work.

    Interesting eatery with great store and concept. Food was great, dessert was great. Portion is very generous and the variety in it. Will be back again when we around newmarket

    Walked around Newmarket and found this hidden gem. I went here, it might be their opening day and fell in love with the food since. I’ve been back multiple times, mostly for takeaway. The food has been consistently great! Tried multiple of their main items and all of them are amazing so far. Food is super tasty, portion extremely generous for the price and the quality has been top-notch. The staff there are always nice and prepares the order very quickly. My go to spot every time I go to Newmarket. Shout out to the homie at the cashier counter, he’s always there every time I visit! My orders have always been prepared by him each time and they’ve always been good.

    I tried the braised pork and salmon pocket breads. The portion was just right, and the braised pork had a really rich flavour. The salmon was also one of my favourites. I’ve also tried their corn drinks and corn ice cream before, and both were quite unique. I really liked the corn pancake as well — it had a lovely corn aroma with a slight sweetness. Definitely worth trying.

    Found the kernal milk drink quite interesting. Definitely is unique. The girl serving me could be a bit nicer and not have a buzz kill attitude.
