The one dish you must try from Chef Chik (stall #01-36) at Haig Road Market Food Centre is this “Steamed Prawns in Garlic Sauce”. Perfectly-cooked crustaceans aside, it is the bed of #cheecheongfun arranged beneath that got my jaw meeting the floor. What a simple but smart idea - it adds so much to the dish because those silky-soft steamed rice rolls end up absorbing the sweet prawn juices and insanely fragrant garlic sauce. I couldn’t stop eating them once I got started. It’s pretty much a one-dish meal when you think about it.

Do note this stall has unusual operating days and hours. They are only open from Wednesdays to Saturdays and while lunch is served from 11.30am to 2.30pm, dinner is a brief and rather awkward window of 4pm to 5.30pm.
