Kway Chap

10 Reviews

Kway chap isn’t commonly a dish that’s eaten at supper. But this stall at Bishan does a version good for night owls. It opens from 8.30pm in the evening all the way to 4am the following morning. In fact queues start to form at 8pm and this continues through the evening.

We ordered kway ($1 each) and it was smooth and silky, but didn’t had a lasting impression of the broth. For $16 (for four), there was braised belly pork, small intestine, large intestine, pig skin, fish cake, tau kwa, tau pok and boiled egg. The innards here were cleaned thoroughly and doesn’t have a bitter, gamey smell - the most important factor in determining if it’s a good rendition. Chilli sauce here is worth a mention where it’s sourish spicy. The type of sauce that complements the braised delights well.

I would say this is a decent bowl of kway chap for those who want to fulfil their late night cravings.

Tried this place’s Signature Noodles ($5) and the soup was pretty good! It had a mild fish taste (but not fishy) and was really light. There were lots of ingredients inside, including a meatball, fried fishball, pork slices, meat chunks, dumpling, seaweed, egg, and wolf berries. I really liked the mushrooms in the noodles too surprisingly. Sadly, the noodles in this dish wasn’t my favourite, because their mee kia is on the thicker and flatter side, and the noodles could have been harder. Still worth a visit to this coffee shop though, because there were many yummy places here and it’s a large space! (Originally wanted to try the kueh chap here, but it only opens from 8.30pm to 4am since it’s a supper spot, so next time I guess.)

A surprise find for me over here as I was looking for a quick lunch, the Ban Mian (S$3.50) from Xiao Yu Er is perhaps an underrated item in the coffee shop as most of the limelight were on the Kueh Chap and Fish Maw Soup from neighbouring stalls.

Much as the noodles and minced meat were on the average mark, I liked the soup the most. It's rich and tasty, and seemingly passed the thirst test (ie. flavour not supplemented by MSG).

Craving for kueh chap in the middle of the night? Head down to KPT at Bishan St 22 for a mouth watering meal of kueh chap. This stall opens from 8.30pm to 4am and one can choose from a variety of braised items (3 layer pork, intestine, egg, taukua etc). Pair it with the kueh and chilli, and i guarantee that your stomach will thank you.

You can try Kway Chap at Block 284 Bishan Street 22. Opens from 8.30am till 4am. They are off on every alternate Sunday. I really like their kway tiao and the soup is drinkable! You can order fishcake, preserved salted veg, taupok, pig's skin, pork belly, big intestine head, big/small intestine. Take your pick! I love their big intestine head! They braised it until so soft and no porky taste!
