Hawker To Try

This stall is now definitely one of my fav stalls here at Ci Yan Hawker Centre/CC. The noodles are well fried, very aromatic and tasty. The wok hei is great. Must try if you like Hokkien mee and if you're in Hougang area. Yummy yummy yum yum yum! Posted by Ah Leong San 2016 November 7.

Pretty awesome white beehoon, always worth the drive. They do some pretty good omelettes too. #hawker #zichar

Finally tried this! Told us there's an hour queue but arrived within 30min. Nothing can scare me off! Enjoyed the fried lard and sliced pork, coupled with the prawns and juicy goodness. The flavor and wok hei are enjoyable, but felt that the servings are a little small for $15.

During my trainee days in the army, I would always look forward to this mouth watering and sinful plate of hokkien mee. My family had just relocated to Toa Payoh, and we were out on a mission exploring the good food around our new house. The first time we went we had to wait more than thirty minutes, and the friendly aunty gave us their name card so that we could call in advance the next time. I thought it was good but didn't think much of it until the following week in camp. Maybe it was the appalling camp food, or the tough training I was under, but I had a sudden intense craving for this luscious prawn noodle. Needless to say, this plate was my motivation to get me through the many arduous weeks to come. Even now, looking at this picture makes me salivate! Tian Tian Lai (come daily) indeed. #Hawkerpedia

New found hidden gem. A claypot full of crispy shrimps, crunchy cabbage and tender chicken pieces.

Not crazy about the Char Siew at Siang Yuen though. #love #yummy #foodporn Guess I need to go back to church more often. :P

Certified by my dad (old HK foodie) and @eileenongxt. Even though they had been there for so many years, they still remained a very low profit. A true hidden gem!! 💎💎💎

[East Coast Lagoon Food Village] Continuing on my hawkerhopping initiative with some Hwa Kee Barbeque Pork Noodles ($6 portion). First time trying it and the star of the dish definitely has to be the char siew which they prepared in the stall. Sweet, slightly charred and super addictive. Why have you only appeared in my life after so long?

Prices are at $3/$4 a plate. This plate ($3) although slightly dry, has a savoury and "wok hei" flavour that comes with lots of lup cheong, bean sprouts and cockles that will keep you wanting to get another plate!

I have long wanted to try Kacang Pool after seeing many Malay folks at this hawker centre tucking into it with gusto. Today was the day I did. The stall I ordered from was "Kacang Pool Mustafa" (#02-118) and I chose to add an egg in mine too.
The thin, non-spicy brown gravy that's bulked up by mashed kidney beans wasn't starchy at all. Lifting it from one-dimensional mildness were pungent raw onions, sliced green chillies and fresh lime juice. To eat, I tore off pieces of the warm, toasted bread roll, swished them through the Kacang Pool before popping the gravy-soaked bread in my mouth.
Would I have this again? Yes, definitely. It's comfort food that's simple, unique and tasty.

I'm not usually a fan of hokkien mee, but this pot of goodness is awesome! Noodles fried in thick, flavorful seafood gravy and topped with crispy roasted pork and pork lard, it's one of the better ones I've tried. $10 portion is good for 3, 2 if you're really hungry; they're also pretty generous with the prawns and roasted pork!
