Hawker

The 𝐘𝐮𝐚𝐧 𝐘𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐧 ($𝟓) has the crispy flaky exterior you’d expect from a good cruffin, but the interior was a bit too greasy for my liking. Also, the flavour of the yuan tang filling just wasn’t there. Leaning heavier on the coffee side, it lacked a strong tea aroma, and tasted rather one-note.

The gravy was delightfully creamy and nutty, a good amount of sweetness coming through without being too cloying. It has a light fragrance, preventing the sauce from being too overpowering. I love how it wasn’t oily or watery, and the sauce coated every strand of the thin vermicelli noodle.

I really appreciated how generous he was with the ingredients, consisting of cockles, lean pork slices, cuttlefish, prawn and kang kong.

Even without considering the delivery factor, the gravy of the 𝐋𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐞𝐞 🥢 was top notch! Unlike most other places where the gravy gets too watery after mixing, this gravy stayed perfectly gooey and sticky til the last drop 🤤
Also, they’re not kidding about the spiciness 🥵 My weak spice tolerance failed me, but I still kept finding myself reaching for more

Their 𝐋𝐚𝐤𝐬𝐚 🌶 came with a generous amount of ingredients! A good amount of cockles, tau pok and fish cake. However, while containing all the components of a good laksa, I think it could do with a richer gravy.

I can see why the 𝐌𝐞𝐞 𝐒𝐢𝐚𝐦 🍜 is their signature dish! The thick gravy has a deep and rich flavour. I loved the pronounced nuttiness and the rich creamy flavour from the fresh coconut milk! Had a nice old school taste 🥰

Their drinks really set them apart from other stalls, they’re unique and I would say, distinctively better. Their traditional drinks are done really well, especially their coffee. I picked up a 𝐊𝐨𝐩𝐢 ($𝟏.𝟓𝟎), opting for the Siew Dai (50% sugar), which i recommend since their original tends to be a little sweet. The coffee was rich and aromatic, with a deep flavour you don’t find in your usual hawker kopi! I haven’t tried many of their modern drinks but their 𝐘𝐮𝐚𝐧 𝐘𝐚𝐧𝐠 ($𝟏.𝟕𝟎) was delicious! The 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 𝐓𝐞𝐚 ($𝟐.𝟓𝟎) is very sweet, as with their other drinks, but you can pick your sugar level, and it was nonetheless what you’d expect from a good thai milk tea! Their portions, even for the regular size, are very generous!

On the other hand, I wouldn’t say that their food is something to shout about. The 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐚 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 𝐓𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭 ($𝟓.𝟏𝟎 for the set) is a unique twist on the usual kaya toast, with a matcha spread. It was smooth and milky, with a rather subtle matcha flavour, and I think that the flavours were overall too subdued. It’s just not flavourful enough, a novelty item that I wouldn’t prefer over any kaya toast. Their 𝐊𝐚𝐲𝐚 𝐁𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭 was alright, but my complaint is that the toasts were rather soft, lacking a crisp bite.
