hawker (carrot cake) π§
Hands down the best carrot cake in SG!! I canβt identify what exactly they added that makes it different and a clear cut above most other renditions, but this was absolutely delish. We ordered a large portion ($5) - it usually comes with premium ingredients like shrimp, but we opted to have a larger plate of carrot cake instead. Very tasty!!
Portion ($4) is really substantial! The carrot cake was nice and chewy, with a just the right amount of spice. Didnβt appreciate the pieces of hei bi inside though!
Requested to have our first meal out at Pek Kio specifically for its fish soup buttt it seems like things are not quite back to normal! The hawker centre was more crowded than it usually is on a weekend, but all 3 fish soup stores were closed :-( settled for carrot cake ($3) instead! Turned out to be a good choice - portion was really large and had lots of egg, cai poh and chilli :-)
One of the popular stalls at Pek Kio with a perpetual queue! Got the white carrot cake ($2) - generous with egg, but found the carrot cake itself rather mushy and the chilli lacking.
This dish looks really unassuming since itβs so easily found in hawker centres, and ABC market is known for so many other dishes! But this carrot cake ($3) from the stall in the middle row is easily one of my favourites in SG and a staple on my table. Particularly love the thin layers and how itβs coated with egg fried to crispy perfection, the generous portions and the sour chilli!
Scored a huuuge portion for a steal ($3)!! Soft and eggy with small bites of cai poh, the edges were crispy and centre chewy. The chilli packs a punch too! Definitely one of the better carrot cakes Iβve had π
