Smaller than expected, not wet and not dark, but ticked many boxes and satisfying.
The uncle is no longer frying the noodles, and has been taken over supposedly by his daughter. The wok hei is still present in every strand of the rice noodle but there is a lack of savouriness. Perhaps a touch more of fish sauce might help elevate the flavour? Also, the regular portion is $4 and if you order the $5 portion, it comes with a single prawn which is not really justifiable for the additional cost.

🍴 Dong Ji Fried Kway Teow
📍 51 Old Airport Road, Old Airport Road Food Centre, Unit 01-138, Singapore 390051
If I am around Old Airport area..one of my favs...
Uncle Teng has been serving for well over 40 years, frying each order one at a time.
.
Known for being generous with ingredients, their version is also a little more premium than elsewhere, with crisp garlic chives, bouncy squid rings, and juicy deshelled prawns within.
.
Also doesn't skimp on the wispy egg, crisp bean sprouts, chewy lup cheong / dried cured pork sausage, tender fish cake, and plump blood cockles.
.
The noodles carry decent wok hei / breath of the wok, and the dish is less greasy too. Bold smoky sweet savoury salty flavours here. Nice.

Saw a few recommendations of this stall in Old Airport Food Center. Stall owner fries each order one by one. For 4 dollars you get a small plate of Kway Teow with lots of fish cakes, Chinese sausages and two large prawns. The Kway Teow is drier than normal, for wok heat, the prawns are very fresh. But overall nothing to shout about. For those who like their CKT less sweet, more savoury and drier.
Savoury stir fried rice noodles to warm your tummy. One of the must tries at this food centre.
