Xiang Wei Fried Kway Teow (Taman Jurong Food Centre)

Traditional style CKT fried in batches and then finished off individually. The $4 portion is enough if you are not particularly hungry.

The fried kway teow has some wok heat when served. It is the wetter version and comes with sliced Chinese sausages and fish cakes. They also add bean sprouts and Chye Sim but what also liked about it is the large cockles that this stall uses, unlike the small peanut sized cockles that seems to be the norm these days with even the big CKT names. Nice.

Simplicity.

A mountain of shaved ice topped with canned fruit cocktail, nata de coco and served with a calamansi lime. Yums. 😋

Did I mention today is winter solstice?

With some luck on my side today, I spotted this unassuming dessert stall runs by an elderly couple that sells glutinous rice balls [a.k.a. tang yuan 汤圆 — traditionally served on this day as a symbol of reunion] in sweet ginger soup.

Though these were frozen, ready-made ones, we really have nothing to complain about.

As what better way to end the winter solstice on a sweet note than these glutinous rice balls stuffed with sweet fillings including peanut and sesame paste. 🫶🏻

This winter solstice is special to me ‘cause it coincides with my dad’s birthday.

We headed to 海珍 for a simple dinner, after work today.

Their signature dish — Red grouper steamboat is a definite Must Try! if you happen to be around Taman Jurong area.

A plate of freshly sliced red grouper meat in thick chunks served with a pot of flavour-packed, light brownish rich broth loaded with cabbage, yam, tofu, tomato and seaweed that’s so addictive.

Mark my words, you will be asking for refills [like me] for sure!

Thrilled to uncover this umami dish at a hawker centre zi char stall at Taman Jurong — These pan fried 🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐 [a.k.a. ‘gon jin har lok’ in Cantonese | 干煎虾碌] ain’t your average looking ones.

These are plump, crunchy and each one is coated with sweet, savoury and addictive sauce.

The high point of this dish is digging the chock-full of roe inside the prawn heads. And I have to thank the uncle for deshelling all the prawns which makes eating it a breeze. 🫶🏻

Quite mild filling but somehow very endearing, super soft skin when it's hot and fresh in the morning. Not bad at all
