Waterloo Street Hawker Centre
A visit to the Guan Yin Temple landed us here. Its a place suitable for a group of my relatives, cause there's bound to be something for everyone's tastebuds. There are plenty of local food to choose from; prawn mee, carrotcake, vegetarian, indian, malay, bah kut teh, mixed rice... basically everything. I merely took a few shots of the "more-deserved-to-be-mentioned" foods.
-Tow Seng Wan Tan Mee
This is a 2-woman operated stall, in which one of them annoyed me by speaking in hokkien to me even after i made it so obvious that i DO NOT understand it. They were rather confused with orders as well.
Wanton Noodles Dry ($2.50)
Lookwise it was pretty tempting to me. A neatly presentable plate of wanton noodles with acceptable-looking charsiew.
The noodles were overcooked until it pretty much expanded to thick strands. It was very soft and felt somewhat like soggy maggie noodles. But the good thing is, i actually like eating my maggie mee soggy (: Their charsiew was another thing i liked, although not well-marinated but lean and just of the right toughness. The fat wantons filled with peppery minced meat were compact and chewy.
However, the inadequate sauce made the noodles really dry and put down the entire dish. The chilli did not impress as well. overall, its still a decent wanton noodle stall.
Indian Rojak ($7.80)
The price is shocking for hawker fare!! But truthfully speaking, the portion was quite alot. The best part among the pile was the grilled sotong, which was extremely soft and squishy. Good potatoes as well, and all went well with the sweet gravy.
-Zheng Xing Cooked Food #01-96
A humble looking, dimly lit stall which sells freshly cooked desserts like bubor hitam, green bean soup and the ever-popular tau suan. The long queue gathered infront of the stall can well indicate how good it is.
Tau Suan
We ordered one of almost everything they have, but i shall just focus on the deep bowlful of tau suan. According to my uncle, it is the best you can find. Loads of you-tiao given. Get it before it is sold out.
Overall: A decent meal for everyone but the place was a little stuffy and dark. Cheap and filling food.
