Leng Kee Fish Soup (Bukit Timah Market & Food Centre)

Nothing too fancy here, just a simple bowl of fish soup that is nonetheless my go-to every time I have cravings. The fish soup here just tastes naturally sweet and I think even completely MSG-less. The braised beancurd skin with taupok and egg is my fav here - every ingredient has been braised for a sufficiently long enough time that all the goodness from the sauce has been soaked up.

While there are other more famous fish soups at Bukit Timah hawker centre, this one run by a husband and wife power duo just tastes more homely!

My most frequent place when I have fish soup craving. Fish slices are generous and the jasmine white rice is cooked to perfection. Hate it when I get mushy or overcooked rice. Uncle works on the orders really quickly so the queue here is nothing like the one at ABC brickworks.

When you're feeling under the weather, turn to this nourishing bowl of Teochew-style fish soup with white rice. Housed in Bukit Timah Food Centre, their Sliced Fish Soup ($4.50) sees fresh Batang slices, silken tofu, lettuce and tomato swimming in a sweet and light broth. If you come early enough, have the unique Fish Roe add-on ($1.50) that Burppler Muriel AvdH loved for its rich contrast to the firm slices of fish and silken tofu. The best part? You don't have to wait long for your bowl.

One of those stalls that give a decent amount of fish. Love the light clear soup and fresh slices of fish. Although the soup may not be as good as the one at ABC brickworks, the queue here is more manageable.

I usually prefer the milky fish soup broth, but Leng Kee is an exception! The clear fish soup broth is so flavourful 😋

The portion is super awesome as well as uncle doesn't scrimp on the ingredients at all! Get the $8, it's super worth it and can be shared between 2 people! ☺️

The lighter clearer soup kind of fish soup! I prefer this over the murky/milky kind of soup. This comes with a generous amount of Batang fish slices. They only sell the non fried ones!
