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 itโs 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.โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ

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. Itโs 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. Itโs not the best fish soup but itโs 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 itโs 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 thereโs nothing much to complain for its generous portion at just $3.50. Good and affordable, nothing special about the ingredients. Thereโs a very good economical bee hoon stall but itโs all the way in Jurong East. I absolutely love their bee hoon/mee goreng with ngoh hiang. Maybe itโs 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, theyโre 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 Grannyโs Pancake at Hong Lim Food Centre. Moreover, this was served cold. Not sure why? Got them in the morning. Shouldnโt it be fresh and hot? Probably wonโt have them ever again even though itโs $0.60 compared to Grannyโs 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.

A plate of classic traditional dry Wanton Mee with soup on the side, had add chicken feet $5 only.
Tasty indeed.
A homemade bowl of goodness ๐ the tauhuey ($0.70) is perfectly smooth. The cane sugar syrup had a slight herbal taste to it!
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.
A sizeable bowl of tasty sliced fish soup ($5 + $0.50 for rice)! Was surprised by the sweetness of the soup as it didnโt seem to have the usual garlic or dried cuttlefish. It was a generous serving of vegetables and fish!
