Hawkers With A Passion

Hawkers With A Passion

There are times when you eat at a Hawker stall and walk away feeling moved by the insistence of the Hawker to produce only the highest quality and best tasting food even it means at the expense of his own time and profit margins. I hunt for stalls as such and document them here.

The purest and most authentic black sesame paste by far :)

You won’t get any of that starchy , gooey nonsense here - all you get is real grounded black sesame in a smooth creaminess .

The desserts here are also very comfortably sweetened - not too sweet at all .

Desserts are on rotation basis and you can choose from a variety of peanut paste , Bo bo cha Cha , red bean and green bean sago soup , dumplings in longan ginger soup / black sesame paste .

This stall probably deserves a Michelin 🥰.

For those of you whom dislike the Hae go smell or are allergic to that -

This is a good rojak to go to because it doesn’t use shrimp paste.

The homemade sauce is tangy and so appetising.

Freshly cut fruit rojak smothered in a sauce that is not too sweet and has a nice spicy kick.

Not cheap at 5.50 but the quality of the ingredients used justify for the price .

If you say quiche - I say marche.

One of the best versions of quiche for me .

Jam packed with full of ingredients and just enough pastry to hold the quiche together.

Quiches flavours are on rotation :) so you get a new surprise everyday.

Served warm !

Pretty good not wet not dry mee siam .

Tangy and slightly thicker sauce.

Would be nice if the vermicelli was slightly more tender but still very delicious overall .

At least the sauce is not sickeningly sweet .

Firm rice rolls , best homemade chilli .

Let the picture do the talking 🥰

You can never go wrong choosing rice rolls when you don’t know what to eat in the morning 🤩

Interesting vibes in the coffee shop .

Go for the dumpling noodles ( check out my earlier post ) 🥰

Nested in an old old coffeeshop at Onan / crane road 🥰

Don’t look left or right -
Just dive in straight to these plump shrimp dumplings with huge fresh prawns inside.

As good as the ones my mum used to make for us - all the good stuff inside .

They also make a pretty good wanton noodles but go for the shrimp dumplings.

Well roasted HK style char siew and crisp pork belly - pretty underrated stall at the first floor of Hong life hawker .

Chef Jackson used to work in various high end cantonese restaurants so you get then bang for your buck here .

Must also try his char Siew wanton noodles. QQ noodles and a good homemade chilli sauce .
Delectable!

Amazing curry fish head sauce - one of the best I have tried .

You won’t get any of that starchy , milky or sweet kind of curry here. The curry sauce was robust and piquant. The curry was came with generous amounts of cabbage , aubergines and lady’s fingers .

The only downside is the very small fish head at 28 dollars - and the fish was not too fresh .

Maybe I bring my own fish head next time 🤣

Very delicious and fresh Kuehs from kueh Ho Jiak hidden at the row of stalls behind hawker Chan.

For 2 dollars , you can do a mixture of 4 Kuehs.

My favourite will always be their sweet potato ondeh ondeh . QQ and tenders and bursting with a generous gula meleka filling .

Comfort food

Really value for money meal - for 3 dollars , you get 6 pieces of Yong Tau Hu plus an authentic Hakka noodles with your choice of minced meat or ikan billis toppings .

The ingredients are fresh and the noodles are QQ .
The soup is also light and not overly seasoned.

A very hearty meal at a cheap price :)

Carrot cake , prawn mee and Char kwey Teow

Pretty good and moist CKT from a stall in the middle row which doesn’t quite have a name.

Pretty good wok hei and generous portions .

I dream of food .
