Old school fried kway teow with or without cockles option. Stall is manned by 2 ladies. Pricing is either $5.50 or $6.50. However the $6.50 size is really very small, like your regular size. So unless you are a very small eater, choose the $6.50 option. Everything is self service, and expect to wait at least 10 min if you are 3rd in queue. The kway teow is slightly wet and has a good amount of taste. Overall quite satisfying. But big eaters, consider $6.50 plus another $5.50 plate. Stall located in a laid back coffeeshop with ample seating during weekend afternoon.

This char kway teow is a dark, luscious, and very slightly “wet" masterpiece that has more soul than a jazz club. Each strand of noodle is well coated in a savory soy sauce, and kissed by a flame. The lup cheong is caramelized, the cockles (hum) are plump and juicy, and the bean sprouts provide just enough crunch to remind you that you’re technically eating vegetables.

This is my No. 1 after researching 11 places! In my humble opinion, this place is better than Hong Lim and Zion Road. Of course, it also depends on your personal styling preference. Here are its pros (which could be cons for you): Good balance of sweet and salty, leaning slightly toward the salty side. So it is not overly sweet. The kway teow portion is larger than the yellow noodles. Because of this, the wok hei bonds better with the kway teow. As mentioned above, the wok hei is pungent. You smell it before you even taste it. The egg texture is interesting. There are cooked pieces as well as powdery bits woven into the noodles. To be clear, this is a drier style, not the wet style. The chili, sweet sauce, soy sauce, and garlic are very well harmonized. Nothing dominates; the flavors integrate nicely. The portion is small, so you do not get saturated. It feels just right. Of course, some people may think it is a bit pricey, but Singaporeans do not eat like laborers or farmers anymore—come on! I am making this place my regular spot whenever I want my Char Kway Teow fix. They were sensitive enough to customize my plate with “No Cockles” and “No Sausages,” which I appreciated very much. They are quiet people—steady and accommodating. The chef is not much of a talker, but she is clearly focused on the work and on maintaining quality. Loved it, and I will certainly be returning again soon.

Taste decent. The sweet kind of char kueh tiao. Seems like there’s a queue most of the time. Was lucky I didn’t have to queue when I was here. We know rental is high, wasn’t expecting a $5.50 plate of char kueh tiao to be so costly. It’s not the price, it’s the quantity of the food served. It’s easily half of typical plate of char kueh tiao you get from any other hawker or kopi tiam.

Taste is pretty average, what you’d expect a CKT to taste like but nothing outstanding. Portion wise is a little small, don’t even consider the small ($4.50) option, even the medium ($5.50) is just sufficient to fill my tummy (not a big eater). Positives is that there’s ample parking around and the coffeeshop is airy. I wouldn’t go back specially just for this, but if happen to pass by, wouldn’t mind eating again.
