A couple who run a fried kway teow stall in Ang Mo Kiu were suffering from illness and had to let their son, who was in special need, take over the important task. After a "food podcast" shared their story online, it caused quite a response and attracted many diners to queue up to support it. Some people are known to have even bought 50 packs of fried rice noodles in one go.

The Mangjiajiao Clam Fried Kueh Tiao stall located in Block 409 of Ang Mo Kiu Road 10, a delicatessen center, was already very popular among residents in the area. However, as the chef's father suffered from cancer and his mother suffered a stroke, they taught the fried Kueh Tiao craft to Special needs son.

In an interview with the food podcast Bestfoody, the mother revealed that she had no strength in her hands after suffering a stroke, and her husband subsequently suffered from cancer and was unable to control the spoon. The couple originally planned to close the stall, but after hearing the news, the diners expressed their reluctance and suggested that they teach their skills to their son.

The mother said that her son was slow to develop and was born differently from other children, but the current situation has improved a lot.“ Will be willing to communicate with others now, I didn't like talking to them before.”

The father also revealed in the interview that his son currently has six or seven successful husbands and hopes that diners can come and try his son's craft.

“I am semi-retired. If (my body) can recover, I will take it down and continue doing it.”

According to the reporter's observation, even though it was past lunchtime, there was an endless stream of diners coming to visit, the mother and son were very busy, and the father was not there at the time.( Picture: He Tingting)

"8 Vision News Network" visited the stall at 2:30 pm today (9th) and found that although lunch time had passed, there was an endless stream of diners coming to visit. Mother and son were very busy. The father was not present at the time, and the mother was not. Don't want to be interviewed.

The reporter also learned that a customer had bought 50 packets of fried kway teow in one go, and the waiting time was once as long as an hour.

Among them, many customers come here to support them after reading online stories about this family.

Diners: Very good stir fry​

Cheng Wei-hsin, who recently moved to the Ang Mo Kio area, told reporters that after she learned about the situation of their family of three from a friend, she came to support them with actions.

“I think it is not easy for their family, and it is not easy for special groups to live. They can be so independent and self-reliant. I think they should support it.”

Jianliang, who lives in the Hougang area, also said in an interview that he also decided to come down to visit after seeing the report.

“I know it's not easy for them, I've been sick, and my neighbor is in special need and understands his struggles, so I have time to pack up.”

Chen Jinfu, who lives in the Huangpu area, revealed that he also has a son with special needs in his family, so he can understand the difficulty of being a parent and the needs of children with special needs. Although it was his first time visiting, he thought that his son had been fired very well and would come often in the future.
 
tragedy stems from those PCB garbage zhams I see.... even the brain damage (yea now termed as special needs hoping to somehow blunt the effect) could possibly be caused by those multiple childhood vaccines.
 
this ''kind'' customer very wicked lah.........................why ?..............

1) 50 packets at one go...........you want the special needs guy to die, is it ??

2) make the hawker happy today.................then tomorrow sad................no business..............

In addition, this makes other customers who also want to support the family dulan, give up and go home, because now instead of 2 min, they have to wait over 1 hour for their order to be cooked.
 
All the ministars should be buying 1000 packets a day for 10 years. They can afford it and people will benefit from this 'generosity'.
 
Why donch he just give the money to the family or donate his CDC vouchers to them ?

After paying for all the costs & hardwork they probably only profited $50 at most

This Google Translate cannot make it

yah hor.................maybe this ''kind'' customer wanna sabo the hawker lah............... :biggrin:
 
Why he didn't buy just one packet, give her a hundred dollar bill and say keep the change?

Because if you want to do it that way, might as well close down the stall and beg full time outside the Waterloo Street temple.
