Hidden gem in Sengkang that serves up one of the best Char Kway Teows in Singapore.
This is a true-blue Singaporean classic and perhaps one of the most quintessential, old-school version of char kway teow — without the limelight of a Michelin star, that is.
The Holy Trinity of their char kway teow dish:
1) Kway teow with a unique texture;
2) Crunchy chunks of cai poh;
3) Fresh crispy pork lard.
This char kway teow has a superb, moist yet wobbly texture, and it's stir-fried with an artful amount of wok-hei. The play of high heat and quick manoeuvring, plus the Maillard reaction between the kway teow, yellow noodles, minced garlic, fresh cripsy pork lard, cai poh and sliced Chinese cured sausages, releases an intense wok hei and complex flavours that are signature of their time-honoured craft.
I'm super glad that there's such a legendary char kway teow stall here in the Northeast part of Singapore! Sinful bliss, or blissful sin... whatever you call it!
