The fishball noodles from #17 Teochew Fishball Noodle at Geylang East Market are a delightful treat, offering a savoury taste experience with a good mix of ingredients including sliced mushrooms, minced pork, fishballs, and sliced fish cakes.
Priced reasonably at only $4 per bowl, this dish is not only tasty but also value for money.
Definitely worth revisiting!
Was craving for a bowl of Teochew meepok bakchor mee!
Got it satisfied at Geylang East Centre Market!
Stall has quite a long queue at all times of the day breakfast and lunch!
Are you a mee pok or mee kia person? It is MEE POK for me!
And always with special request of no pork liver!
At half the price of usual mango sticky rice, nothing to complain about this.
From a no-name stall selling Hong Kong-style ccf and porridge. Helmed by an elderly man, it looked very old-school. What's most unusual was the sauce, which consisted of sesame oil, more common for local plain ccf. Although the skin was thicker than preferred, respect for making it fresh upon order.
Finally got the chance (3rd in queue) to get this for lunch because the queue here is usually long (est 30mins) during peak hours. This shop is ran by a old couple where only the uncle cooks while the aunty takes order from customers.
We ordered a bowl of sliced fish soup each and shared a plate of braised duck. Dayum! The fishes were fresh & succulent and the braised duck was done perfectly - fragrant, soft, tender and flavourful! 🤤 They also serves braised duck tongue only on Wednesdays.

Jin jin Hokkien prawn noodles

What an unexpected find in this Hawker nested within Aljunied.
This Hokkien prawn mee has hit all the right notes for me and when you see that this shop has many regulars - you know why .
The prawn slices were very fresh and the pork slices were very tender and non fatty .
The star of the dish was the QQ kway Teow and kudos to these broader kway teow . Paired with the homemade sambal , each mouthful is such
an enjoyment. Simply un un-believable.
Mix in some prawn soup into your noodles and mix up all that sambal - really the best tasting prawn mee for me that’s not too greasy and not too salty .
For 3 dollars - this is really a gem .
I could not help noticing that the "Lor" or gravy is without eggs, it was sort of disappointing. The gravy itself is not as robust and starchy compared to many other places too. I would recommend adding the chilli sauce and garlic, and give the bowl of noodle a good toss. The addition of the chilli and garlic will give the flavour a boost. I enjoyed the luscious topping of braised pork belly which is tender and juicy. The noodle was also well cooked, not over done, still have not al dente texture. As for the fried fish, while it is chunky, the batter is lackluster. It was pre-fried and not crispy.

I'm a huge fan of fish soup, which to me is tasty, healthy, and easy on my tummy. And I'm always searching for good ones to rotate around.
🔸
Swee Min brought me to this stall yesterday, and I like it enough to come here again today. The batang is fresh, and served in a clear soup that's flavoured by 酸菜 and 四川菜, yet these weren't too strong so that the subtle flavours of the soup due to the use of fish bones and tomatoes is still evident. (This means that it's very different from the Arcade fish soup which also uses 四川菜).
🔸
And interestingly, you can order braised duck and their parts as side dishes (swipe to see an additional side dish of braised duck). I like to have my rice with the braising gravy!

Got this bowl of porridge while waiting for our fish soup and after we noticed a regular flow of customers patronizing the stall. Porridge was thick and smooth with well seasoned pork slices and meat balls. It was a pleasant surprise!

The platter even comes with some sliced cucumber and salted vegetables. The special thing I like about the roasted chicken is the crispy skin. You can see from the picture, a layer of crispiness sits on top of the tender chicken.
I’m a noodles gal and don’t quite believe in takeaways for saucy or soupy noodles. ESP these egg noodles. I mean why have bloated noodles??!
But these! Delicately coated in onion and pork lard oils — a generally clearer sauce mix THAT IS FULL OF FLAVOUR, somehow are noodles preserving their bites well up to 4 hours into the dabao? HOW?!
One of my favourite sat morning breakfast takeaway for the past 6 years 😌
Be pleasantly surprised by their umami dumpling bombs filled with crispy fungus besides the usual suspects of mince and onions

Came back for the fish soup from Ng Soon Kee and also got ourselves a chicken chop! Checks all the boxes for a good chicken chop - crisp skin, juicy meat and a good gravy. Fries could be served hotter though!

The recent cold weather is making me crave for a hot bowl of lor mee. They sell lor mee with different toppings like chicken chop, pork chop, shredded chicken or the usual lor mee with battered fish.
I ordered the normal lor mee with battered fish, half hard boiled egg and bean sprouts. I feel that it’s missing the ngoh hiang and flavour in the gravy. Not the best lor mee but it definitely helps to settle my cravings 》$3

My first and last try before they closes (contract ends) on 31 Dec 2017. They sell laksa, pork ribs noodle soup, pig tail prawn noodle, prawn noodle and curry chicken in claypot.
The laksa comes with beansprouts, cockles, fish cake and prawns. It has a light creamy broth but I feel it's missing the richness of the coconut milk. Pretty decent but not wow.

The soup here is peppery, robust and well balanced with the tanginess of salted vegetables. Not to mention that they are open to customisation and generous with their portions. The usual comes with lean pork, meatballs, large intestines and liver but my favourites would be lean meat and meat balls as I don’t take liver. Oh btw, they have tasty homemade ngoh hiang that cost $1.50 each. It’s meals like this that makes me look forward to weekday lunches 》$3.50 + $0.50 Rice
