    When you order Char Koay Teow make sure you get the right one because there's TWO! The good one is the one facing the main road. Ask before taking because the other one is sneaky in pushing their CKT.

    Apom is very good. Stall has been operating for 80 years and is now managed by different generation, but still awesome.

    If the hokkien mee is closed, don't miss the apom made using clay pot over charcoal fire. Definitely worth a try and eat while hot.

    Definitely try the sweet apam in the morning and apam in the evening. Love the apam choices in the evening which includes eggs in your apam.

    Better to prebook the apam manis to avoid disappointment. I was lucky and managed to persuade the uncle to sell us 2pc despite all already prebook by outsiders. Open at 6am, stall close at 9.40am

    Koay teow and assam laksa is good. Wan tan mee's noodles taste great with the mushroom sauce and the wan tan is peppery which I like. The char siew was not too great

    wantan mee moved next door (Wantan Mee House).This is a lesson for y'all: don't argue with one of ur golden geese when ur coffee/tea tastes weak&bad.We no longer need to be subjected to ur bad drinks

    Famous for wantanmee. Their sauce is different from normal soy sauce, it is made from those "Yee Mee glutinous" type. Coffee was ok, nothing special. Mee goreng by the Indian uncle was good.
