I decided to order another variation - seafood ($6) plus add on rice (50 cents) beside their famous fish soup. But tbh seafood they got a lot of ingredients such as fishball, Yong tau foo, also abalone 😯 beside their normal fish. They invested too much ingredients for seafood version tbh. Really enjoy their soup broth tbh even though a lot of fish soup stall at there and its just literally best of best tbh.
One of high recommendation stall frm food website. I ordered Fish Soup ($6) topped w Rice ($0.50). But I felt that fish soup was quite comforting and plain (not much taste). They put a lot of fish pieces and vegetables inside the soup.
Rainy day calls for fish soup!
The key to good fish soup is the broth, I’d say. Clear yet flavourful and having absorbed all the essence there is, I can see why they were spotting a queue when I popped by.
There are a myriad of options available here - fish slices or fried fish, rice or bee hoon, various combination such as fish maw soup, red grouper fish head soup etc, I’m sure you’ll find something you enjoy here!
If you’re feeling peckish, order their fried beancurd to go with your fish soup, it’s both crispy and chewy at the same time!
Ordered the Char Siew ($4) , Prawn ($5) & Scallop ($6) Chee Cheong Fun. The Char Siew was scatter around the Chee Cheong Fun so every part of it you will likely get the Char Siew whereas for the Prawn & Scallop is one big piece type.
Overall, the filling inside is nice but is not something I would come all the way for it.
Paid a premium ($4 for small, usually $3) in view of CNY surcharges - rather unpalatable price given that this plate was average at best. Broth was on the thin side and overall sorely lacking in wok hei!
This chee cheong fan was silky and doused generously in a rather sweet light soya sauce with sesame oil and topped with lots of sesame seeds. The sauce may be a bit sweet for others, but I quite liked it. My parents also enjoyed the chilli that they have. They make each sheet freshly, steam it, and roll it up, so it was quite a wait (about 30 mins) and it’s exacerbated by the fact that people tend to order 5 plates or even take away 10 packets! Still, worth it if you have time and patience.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The prawns in this were fresh and crunchy, and I preferred it over the char siew one that I took away, because the char siew was a bit too sweet when coupled with the soya sauce. It’s stall 01-25 at Pek Kio Hawker Centre if you wanna try it out!
From Delicacy Fish Soup. Despite the good reviews online, there was barely any queue. The soup is clear and light with dried sole fish added to it. What I liked best was the thick chunks and good portion of fish. It’s not the best fish soup but it’s above average.

The bee hoon tasted a little weird at the beginning, like there was this extra charred or plastic taste. Not too sure if it’s from the styofoam box or whatever. But it had a very distinct taste and only from the bee hoon. The other ingredients were fine and well there’s nothing much to complain for its generous portion at just $3.50. Good and affordable, nothing special about the ingredients. There’s a very good economical bee hoon stall but it’s all the way in Jurong East. I absolutely love their bee hoon/mee goreng with ngoh hiang. Maybe it’s time to travel to the West.

Good alternative to YTF or Fish Soup when you feel like having something warm and easy to digest. Decent portion and it seems like they make their own fishballs? Well, they’re called Jia Le Handmade Fishball Noodles...

Stall with the longest queue in the market - longer than the wtm - because......?
It is value for money. At $3, they are generous with the ingredients and (especially) the noodles. Taste quite good, but nothing special.
The charsiew is ok (lean type). Wanton is plump and good. Noodle with sambal chilli and dried shrimp is shiok.
The charsiew and wanton are good supporting cast to the star - Mee with chilli.
Yum.

Not as thick or shiok as Granny’s Pancake at Hong Lim Food Centre. Moreover, this was served cold. Not sure why? Got them in the morning. Shouldn’t it be fresh and hot? Probably won’t have them ever again even though it’s $0.60 compared to Granny’s Pancake which costs $1. $0.40 really makes a huge difference.

The sliced fish soup ($5) here is a little pricey but well worth it! They are very generous with their fish and vegetables, and the soup is extremely flavourful. Love that their meesua ($0.50) has a great bite and soaks up the soup nicely!

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 :-)
The skin fresh made upon order, very thin and pair with char siew that not overpowering, served with light soya sauce.
Beside char siew, also have plain, prawn and scallops.

The fish soup ($5) is extremely fragrant, with a base made from flat fish and augmented with garlic & shallots. There is a tinge of bitterness from the bitter gourd! The stall is very generous with its fish and vegetables.
Bought a small plate to share! Their red sauce packs a real punch. Loved how the ngoh hiang was generously packed with meat, and the light crispness of the crackers ($5 total)!
The skin is super light and airy. ASMR community will definitely have a field day listening to the crunchy crisp sound when you sink your teeth into it.
