    This is the best chwee kueh in Singapore, in my opinion. My wife and I love it very much! The taste is nostalgic and amazing! Can't find it anywhere else in Singapore. Great video, Greg! Keep it up!

      This is definitely the best chwee keuh to me too. Other stalls may give me more cai po but i still prefer this stall version.

    you’re absolutely spot on! One other reason why i love this stall’s chwee kuey is the fact that the chwee kuey itself has 口感, the firmness of the rice cake perhaps speaks of the use of more rice flour than in other stalls. And yes the use of pork lard provides a fullness that is the draw for me!

    Garlic and sesame seeds are ingredients you can find in the dried radish topping in other stalls in place of pork lard for fragrance.

  • @arvs0z
    @arvs0z 3 года назад

    I agree, this stall's cai poh is kind of an acquired taste. I didn't like it at first try. But because I would normally order it every time I order from the hor fun stall (which is also good) and crave for chwee kueh, I prefer their topping now compared to other stalls. It is kinda expensive though so now I would only get their kueh if the black carrot cake stall's queue is very long hahaha

    Do try the Mee Siam from 老潮州 in the same hawker centre. Probably the best Mee Siam in SG. The gravy has a very unique flavour, more emphasis on the tau cheo and they do add (what i believe is) tee poh to it as well!

      Yes that’s true. There was a Govt push for healthier hawker food in the 1970s/80s so a lot of hawkers switched to vegetable oils and that pushed the price of pork lard up (lower demand)

      Hi Jason, actually I've grown up eating all the three big name chwee kueh stalls - bedok, Ghim Moh and Jian bo (Tiong Bahru). Jian bo has been franchised out since the 1990s. they now have 17 outlets across singapore. doesn't mean that it doesn't taste good though. as the saying goes, one man's meat is another man's poison. thanks for watching :)
