Look at this beauty! — Super crispy, eggy coating with soft radish cubes and bountiful of ‘chye poh’ [a.k.a. preserved radish]. 😲

Still 1 of my favourite Chai Tow Kway around.
He zhong has been around for over 4 decades already, surely it wouldn't last so long if the food was good.
The eggs were crispy.
The carrot cake is self made daily, unlike some places that bought their carrot cake from supplier.
Generous amount of cai poh in every bite.
Served in layers of crispy goodness.
Only available in White. Don't be goondu and order black.
Specialising in only the white version, their rendition features symmetrical cut squares of deliciousness.

The family-run stall by Teo Boon Kuang has been serving since 1973, and daughter Alberta Teo has come on to carry on the legacy.
.
Their carrot cake is soft and moist, marinated in garlic and fish sauce, the egg covering each side and holding it all together, almost like a pancake.
.
Nicely springy with crisp edges, and lovely savoury sweet eggy salty flavour, with a bit of spicy kick.

These chunky blocks of radish cubes are cooked with a generous amount of chai poh that gives some sweetness that complements the savouriness. It is well charred to a crispy exterior with chilli that was smeared while the interior is firm and soft with flavours coming from the egg, chye poh and garlic. This has got to be one of the better white carrot cake I have tasted and not to mention how it was priced reasonably cheap 》$3
Really generous amount of egg given, and the texture of the carrot cake is chewy and good. Every bite is fragrant with just the right amount of crisp and not too oily too. Recommend 👍
Look at how beautiful the colour of their carrot cake. You will never go wrong getting a plate from them, starting with the price of just $2.50.
If you are having your meal here, make sure don’t leave without a small plate of their carrot cake. Enjoy how fluffy the the strong taste of egg in every bites.
