What started as an impromptu exploration in the Whampoa area led me to a new favourite popiah place at 968 Popiah! You’d be hard-pressed (pun maybe intended) to find a popiah shop which is this generous with the mang guang (braised turnip/jicama) in each of their freshly wrapped rolls, and only for $1.80 each! Ingredients are simple and no-frills (with the usual boiled egg, lettuce, beansprouts, sweet sauce and chilli), but this place gets the fundamentals right in flavour and texture. The radish was moist & flavourful, and even the crunchy bits were yummy! I dabao-ed some for my parents & the popiah rolls did not become soggy after the long trip home!⁣

Saw that they also incorporated a Japanese twist to the popiah in the form of Sushi Popiah, perhaps it's something worth trying next visit! 🤪⁣
