Jurong West 505 Market & Food Centre

Back after 12/12/23

Peanut wasn't v sweet, quite generous

Their pancake is soft and chewy, with some alcohol, very different from the norm and closer to the Chinese steamed cakes actl

Featuring my favourite childhood snack - 𝐓𝐮𝐭𝐮 𝐊𝐮𝐞𝐡 from Du Du Cooked Food 嘟嘟熟食! They used to cost $2 for 4 back when I was living near the market, but these bite-sized treats are now still affordable at $3 for 5 pieces (blame shrinkflation for the price hike)!  
 
The steamed kueh is soft and pillowy, comes with a generous serving of filling and more importantly, retains its texture even when cooled (but best eaten warm for the best flavour experience)! They come in two flavours: the more traditional neon-orange coconut filling or the ground peanut/brown sugar mix, though I prefer the former for its lightly toasted coconut flavour.

What’s best on a rainy day? A bowl 🥣 of hot porridge.

This was thick and creamy; and comes with tons of tender liver, topped with fried shallots, spring onions, fried dough fritters and a raw egg.

Smallest portion, the fish isn't generous but taste wise I believe it's still the best I've had. The fish soup itself was full of umami and amped up with the fried garlic?, the fish slices were tender and the chili is probably their biggest secret. It's deep and complex with a nice hit of bitter heat, really packs a punch but you just can't stop. Had this for years and so far haven't had a better fish soup (expensive for the portion but still insane queue everyday)

Tried the Penang Hokkien mee prawn noodle from this stall. It’s $3 for the small bowl, which is very decently priced and so affordable. I like that the bean sprouts don’t taste very very raw. The soup is also very flavourful. They are also very generous with the other ingredients as well. Perfect for a cold weather!
