This is my third attempt to patronise this stall with the first two in vain, once they were not open and another time they just sold out. At 11.55am, I was literally the last customer.

They only do the white version these days although it is evident from their signboard they used to do the black version as well. Their style is thick cut, pan fried till crispy on the outside and lots of egg! I mean seriously I saw them adding two eggs for a $3.50 serving.

Soft CB now so that means I cannot enjoy it piping hot there and then but need to tabao and the 30 mins journey home did not help. Making allowance for this, I judge based more in the flavour. Strong taste of fish sauce and it balances the sweetness of the Chai Poh. Every mouthful is a delight because of the thick cut carrot cake and the generous amount of egg.

I don’t mind coming back earlier in the morning when soft CB is over to try it piping hot.
