Regularly sold out well before their official close of business each day, this beloved stall has been serving their hearty rendition since the 1960s.
.
The generous portion has a base of dense chewy soft compressed rice cakes with grainy sweet flavour, in a rich creamy broth of turmeric, galangal, lemongrass, coconut milk, toasted grated coconut, and other spices, resulting in a punchy sweet savoury earthy spice flavour.
.
Stacked high with soft stewed vegetables (cabbage, string beans, jicama turnip) with vegetal sweet spice flavour, a bouncy whole hard boiled egg with eggy sweet flavour, and spongy tofu bean curd with grainy sweet notes.
.
Their unique garnish of fried ikan bilis / anchovies lends a contrasting crispy crunchy texture, and robust salty savoury flavour to alleviate the richness.
