Heng Leong Carrot Cake
41A Cambridge Road, #01-13, Pek Kio Market and Food Centre, Singapore 210041
Opening Hours: 7:30am – 3:30pm (Tues – Sun), Closed Mon

There are a couple of Carrot Cake stalls at Pek Kio, all with their own fans, but I guess my vote goes to Heng Leong. By a slight margin.

Really, $2 HANDMADE Carrot Cake, where to find?

Most Carrot Cake stalls are already using the factory-supplied radish cakes, so we should treasure gems like this.

The pierces are cut into larger-than-usual cubes (could be too chunky for some), with a sizable portion of egg.

The Dark Carrot Cake was tastily on the sweet side, but it could do with more chai poh and may be overly charred on some parts.

Tong Siew Fried Rice
41A Cambridge Road, #01-23, Pek Kio Market and Food Centre, Singapore 210041
Opening Hours: 1pm – 10pm (Thurs – Tues), Closed Wed

You will notice a big $3 on the signboard. (This used to be $2.50 not too long ago.)

This is a simple and homely stall selling three dishes – Fried Rice ($3), Fried Hor Fun ($3) and Prawn Egg ($4).

The Fried Rice ($3) has a straightforward and humble preparation, included with egg, shredded chicken, sliced fish cake and topped with mini sliver fish. I loved the cut green chillies.

I won’t say that the Fried Rice was exceptional or had very strong wok-hei (would personally prefer more), but it is still a simple old-school dish which is both filling and quite affordable.

Old-school flavour and price that is hard to find now.

(Note: While the closing time indicates as 10pm on Google, they usually sell out way before that.)

Sin Kee Nasi Lemak
41A Cambridge Road, #01-34, Pek Kio Market and Food Centre, Singapore 210041
Opening Hours: 5am – 1pm (Fri – Wed), Closed Thurs

This is actually one of my favourite Economic Bee Hoon stalls in Singapore.

A reason why is that the bee hoon tasted freshly fried, and ingredients were usually at least warm (and not cold after being left on the trays for a long while).

The economic set starts with $2.70. If not, the base price for the bee hoon or kway teow starts with $1, and you can add ingredients of fried chicken wing, Taiwanese sausage, chicken hotdog, ngoh hiang, luncheon meat, tau kua, fish fillet or fish cake.

Each item ranges from $0.50 to $1.20.

The bee hoon is typically flavoursome complimented with a tangy punch of sambal, best paired with one of the piping-hot crispy wings.

Sheng Seng Fried Prawn Noodles 生成炒虾麵
41A Cambridge Road, #01-40 Pek Kio Market and Food Centre, Singapore 211041
Tel: +65 6299 3981
Opening Hours: 11:30am – 5pm (Tue – Sun), Closed Mon

Sheng Seng Fried Prawn Noodles 生成炒虾麵 has a certain nostalgic taste that its regulars like.

Popular for its value-for-money Hokkien mee, the stall offers its specialty starting at $3.00. Also available at $4, $5, $6.

This wetter than usual version consists a good portion of a mix of thick and thin bee hoon and yellow noodles, served with thin slices of sotong, halved prawns, pieces of fishcake, egg, home-made sambal chili and some lime on the side.

For the price, you get a decent heap of noodles with prawns and squid with an old-school flair.

Tip: There is another Sheng Seng Hokkien Mee at Toa Payoh Lorong 8 Market & Hawker Centre, very popular and apparently run by another family member.

Pin Wei Hong Kong Style Chee Cheong Fun
41A Cambridge Road #01-25 Pek Kio Market & Food Centre, Singapore 211041
Tel: +65 8180 2013
Opening Hours: 6:30am – 2pm (Thurs – Tues), Closed Wed

It is not usual to find fresh, hand-made Chee Cheong Fun in Singapore’s food centres, because of the required skills and dedication in making it.

Pin Wei Chee Cheong Fun is one of the few stalls that offer this dish Hong Kong-style, and is also listed in the Michelin Guide with a “Michelin Plate”.

Each requires a thorough process of steaming, filling with ingredients, transferring and cutting, be prepared to wait.

There are 4 variants available: the plain Cheong Fun ($2.20), Char Siew ($3.00); Prawns ($4.00); and Scallop ($4.50).

I initially thought that the Prawns would be a more ‘boring’ choice, but it turned out to be no-less-delicious with fresh prawns used.
Plus, it was evenly distributed and such that you get one prawn per piece scooped up.

The watery Hoisin-like sauce below coated the delicate rolls, that would be satisfying as you let it slip down the throat. Pin Wei Hong Kong Style Chee Cheong Fun (Pek Kio)

Double Spring Teochew Lor Duck
41A Cambridge Rd, #01-48, Singapore 211041
Opening Hours: 8am – 3pm (Tues – Sun), Closed Mon

This hawker stall is a prized gem of the Pek Kio Food centre, serving delicious Teochew Lor Duck Kway Chap.

The testament of their taste and quality is the long queues of loyal customers that form as soon as the stall opens. With the amount and quantity of ingredients in their dish, pricing is a total steal.

You can go for the Lor Duck Porridge ($2.50), Lor Duck Rice ($3, $4, $5), Lor Duck ($5, $8. $10), or Duck Kway Chap ($3.50, $5.50).

I think a draw is its rather yam-my rice.

The signature Teochew Lor Duck Kway Chap ($3.50) comes loaded with ingredients. Along with the tender and well-seasoned duck, you get that light herbal taste with every spoonful.

Xin Heng Kee Chicken Rice
41A Cambridge Road, #01-14 Pek Kio Market & Food Centre, Singapore 211041

Again, another long queue stall.

The snaking queue is a testament of the great quality and taste of their dishes. And the pricing is very affordable, priced at $3 for a plate of Chicken Rice, Roasted Chicken Rice, Braised Duck Rice, Char Siew Rice, or Roasted Pork Rice.

I ordered a Mixed Chicken which is still pretty inexpensive at $4, and the chicken was very tender and flavourful in each mouthful, with aromatic rice complimented well by dark and thick soya sauce.

Not mind-blowing, but certainly above the average. Note: stall has varying closing hours, but usually sold out just after lunchtime.

Xin Mei Xiang Zheng Zong Lor Mee 新美香卤面
51 Old Airport Road, #01-116 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Opening Hours: 6am – 2pm (Fri – Wed), Closed Thurs

Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee attracts queues of diners eager to taste and re-taste their famed Lor Mee.

Aside from the recognition it received from the Michelin Guide (it has a Michelin Plate), another feather in its cap is the Ctrip Gourmet List award. It was also awarded as People’s Choice for Local Food during the City Hawker Food Hunt in 2018.

The sauce, a key element in a good Lor Mee, was quite unlike any others I had before – thick and flavourful as it was prepared with five-spice and other seasonings.

The balance of being vinegary and spicy was done just right.

If you like the pan-fried fish (red snapper) in your Lor Mee, go for the bigger bowls.

Ah yes, there is another similar-sounding Xiang Ji Lor Mee (#01-81) in the same food centre, if you happen to crave and Xin Mei Xiang is closed. Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee (Old Airport Road Food Centre)

Hua Kee Hougang Famous Wanton Mee 華記后港祖傳馳名雲吞麵
51 Old Airport Road, #01-02 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Tel: +65 9620 1543
Opening Hours: 8am – 10pm (Mon, Wed – Sun), Closed Tues

The Hawker Centre is known for two competing Wanton Mee, both facing the road side.

Hua Kee Hougang Famous Wanton Mee 华记后港祖传驰名云吞面 is the one without the electronic queue display; while Cho Kee Noodle is located two stalls on its right.

Hua Kee serves up a variety of noodles, from Wanton Noodles, Dumpling Noodles, Fried Wanton Noodles, Chicken Feet Noodles, and Shredded Chicken Noodles with Mushrooms.

The signature Wanton Mee ($4.00, $5.00), has eggy noodles that are chewy yet smooth in texture.

These noodles come with an interesting gravy sauce, which leans more on the sweet side and goes well with the spicy-smoky chili sambal to balance off the sweetness.

What really gave it its edge and extra bite was its fried shallot, chilli sauce filled with seeds and oily crunchy pork lard. (Note: Customers have complained about “arrogant service” here, just so you know.) Hua Kee Hougang Famous Wanton Mee (Old Airport Road Food Centre)

Whitley Road Big Prawn Noodles 威利大蝦麵
Blk 51 Old Airport Road, #01-98 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Opening Hours: 9am – 8pm (Tue – Fri), 9am – 9pm (Sat – Sun), Closed Mon

Through the years, Whitley Road Prawn Noodles has been known to be one of the best prawn noodles stalls in Singapore.

It offers Hae Mee in both the dry and soup versions, with options which also comes with pork ribs and pork liver.

Most people seem to go for the Big Prawn Pork Rib Noodles ($5.50, $8, $10, $12) or the Three In One ($8, $10, $15) with pork ribs, liver and tail.

The prawns were chunky and tasted fresh – could be sweeter though; while the pork ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender.

Interestingly, I preferred the dry version. The noodles were coated in a spicy-savoury and home-made chili paste with some zing. Whitley Road Prawn Noodles (Old Airport Road Food Centre)

The other famous Prawn Noodles stall at the same food centre is Albert Street Prawn Noodles, along the same row.

Ru Ji Kitchen
51 Old Airport Road, #01-37 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Opening Hours: 7:30am – 2pm (Tues – Sun), Closed Mon

Ru Ji’s Fishball Noodle ($3.00, $4.00, $5.00) features these popular hand-made fishballs and fishcake in a light, clear broth, with dry mee pok or mee kia served separately with sambal chili, crisp pork lard, sprinkled with chopped spring onions.

Given the choice, I say go for the mee pok which was cooked just right with a delicious you can say al-dente bite.

Springy, and neither too dry nor too soft.

If you are not up to too much spice, order ”少辣” (Shao La, less chilli) so that the spicy, savoury sauce at the bottom of the noodles are just enough to coat the noodles once mixed. Ru Ji Kitchen (Old Airport Road Food Centre)

Roast Paradise 烧味天堂
51 Old Airport Road, #01-121 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Opening Hours: 11:30am – 3:30pm (Mon), 11:30am – 6pm (Tues – Sat), 11:30am – 5:30pm (Sun)

Thick, fatty, charred, KL style Char Siew with a tinge of sweet-stickiness on the outside. This is what Roast Paradise is known for, attract long lines every day. (They are also co-owners of the popular Fook Kin 福劲 at Killiney Road.)

The stall serves up Roast Pork and Char Siew Rice and Noodles ($4 – $5.50).

The Hakka Noodles ($4.00) which is not commonly found, is worth a try. Served with minced pork and sprinkling of lard and sesame oil, this was a cross between Bak Chor Mee and Mee Pork (and to me, Gao Ji Yong Tau Foo), except that this has lighter seasoning.

Blanco Court Food Centre Kwap Chap (3rd Storey) 多丽哥粿汁
51 Old Airport Road, #01-135 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Opening Hours: 11am – 3pm (Wed – Fri, Sun), 10:30am – 3pm (Sat), Closed Mon, Tues

This stall has several names, from “Blanco Court Food Centre (3rd Storey)”, “Blanco Court Kway Chap” (unofficial name) to “To-Ricos Guo Shi”, so it may get a bit confusing for newbies or tourists.

They have sets for or 1 or 2 persons, and you can order an add-on if you like additional ingredients or innards.

The favourite part in the entire plate was the intestines, cut in large bite-size pieces, are spongy tender yet not springy. Interesting to note that the stall does not offer small intestines.

The other highlight was the kway itself, broad yet thin and slippery smooth.


The fragrant soy sauce broth was mildly sweet and herbal, complemented by the aroma of fried shallots. Blanco Court Food Centre Kwap Chap (Old Airport Food Centre)

Qiu Rong Ban Mian
51 Old Airport Road, #01-30 Old Airport Road Food Centre, Singapore 390051
Tel: +65 9739 8618
Opening Hours: 9:30am – 9pm (Mon – Sun)

Surprisingly, their soup base turned out to be one of my favourites – quite under-rated I thought.

Qiu Rong Ban Mian has changed locations over the years (previously from Roxy Square), but the stall still has the same friendly couple serving their piping hot bowls.

Uncle and auntie have been successfully running the stall for over 20 years now.

However, a first-time customer may just miss out on their Ban Mian offerings, as the signage is more prominently featuring their Pork Ribs Soup and Chicken Mee Suah in Red Wine ($4.00).

Offerings include Sliced Fish Ban Mian ($4.50), Tom Yam Seafood Noodles ($5.00), Mee Hoon Kway + Prawn ($3, $5) or You Mian ($3.00).

While I thought that their Mee Hoon Kway’s texture was pretty ‘standard’ and decent, it was their rich, flavourful soup with fried ikan bilis that gave a salty kick and crunch that made a difference.

Comforting homemade noodles to warm you up and satiate your cravings.

Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow 老夫子炒粿条

Tel: +65 83333 4828
Opening Hours: 11:45am – 10pm (Mon – Sun

I have tried Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow 老夫子炒粿条 at Old Airport Road quite a number of times in the past. But it was never a stall I would purposely go, it was more like a ‘by-the-way’ “Let’s try CKT” kind of experience. Many customers come here during of its inclusion in the Michelin Guide with a “Bib Gourmand”.

There is also Dong Ji Fried Kway Teow (#01-138) in the same food centre that some of my friends preferred.

Offering both the black or white versions, Lau Fu Zi’s Fried Kway Teow ($5.00, $8.00, $10.00), are all cooked-to-order, each plate fried individually.

The dish carried a well-balanced flavour, and surprisingly not very oily.

Its consistency was more on the dry side, which some diners may like or don’t like, depending on one’s preference.

Also, it lacked of the strong wok-hei (there was still some). Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow (Old Airport Road Food Centre)
