I have long heard about Rolina Curry Puff but all this while, I had assumed that it is the name of a Muslim woman selling it.
After some snooping around online, however, I realized the truth was far from it!

On the contrary, the business was started by Uncle Tham, who learnt his craft from a Hainanese sailor when he was 19. To make a living, he began selling his handmade Hainanese curry puffs in front of Novena Church.
And, if you have not already guess by now, Rolina is actually a mispronunciation of the word "Novena" by a customer.
