I went to Lau Pasat on Sunday long, long time ago when there's not many customers. The fried oyster was very well done (very crispy and not nuan-nuan) because the cook took time to prepare it. It was a Malaysian Chinese cook. The China lady was in charge of preparing the Chai Tao Kueh and it was also very crispy. We waited for some time although we were the only customers. I don't know if they would take time and heart to prepare these two dishes if there's crowd waiting in line.
I think when I was small (1960 to 1975), I lived in a parallel world of SG. People 50 & above don't remember when I mentioned the black and white chai tau kueh had different kinds of dough. If the hawker sold black ones, he wouldn't sell the white ones. The black kueh cake was harder and he used a string to cut it into small oblong cutes. He would not tiak tiak tiak the kueh into a mess, but stir fry them, ensuring they remained as intact individual cubes. The outside was crispy and a little chow tah. If you bought a 5-cent one, it would be served in a broad, open cone made of army leaf. You could use a tooth pick to pick them up one by one . The Malaysian char kway kak is different because the hawker also tiak tiak tiak the kueh into a mess. Had anyone of you here eaten this version of black carrot cakes in the past? Also, it was LITERALLY street food and the hawker used firewood. EL lesson: If you say, "His father literally kicked him out of the house", it means his father lifted up one of his legs, used his foot with violent force to step very hard on his butt, and he fell forward and landed hard on the ground.
I don’t like the messy one, I prefer the finger size cai tao kuek the 50s to 60s year type. There is one stall in a coffee shop at Bedok upper Changi road next to block 58.
