Fishball noodles: Some of the fishballs fr Chao Zhou Fish Ball Noodle #01-20 r bigger than golf balls! Home-made, they r bouncy & hv bite. Savour the taste over plain noodles. Yum!
Hainan XiaochiDecember 24, 2017The traditional handmade Hainanese Kueh, known as "Yi Bua " and their Laksa are their signature dish. A must try in this hawker place. Can find them on the Facebook... hainanxiaochi
- TingJune 26, 2015Great food found here in the mature estate of TPY. The hawker centre had been renovated and is bright and airy. Don't miss the oyster omelette and cendol from Dove Desserts.
- Fried bee hoon. Islandwide chain Hup Lee operates here at #01-11. Expect the same menu, incl nasi lemak & crispy fried chicken wings. Bee hoon is offered in light & dark soy sauce. This combo $4.10
- Vegetarian options: vegetarian bee hoon (#01-37 popular), fried carrot cake, popiah (fresh spring roll), beancurd, chwee kueh (steamed rice cakes), yutiao (dough fritters), pancakes, local desserts
- Fried bee hoon. Economic Fried Bee Hoon & Noodles #01-26 sells affordable breakfast. Fried noodles not as flavourful as nearby Hup Lee #01-11. Ran out of vege dish at 9:30am when I was there
- Penang fried kway teow. Get ur fix from Bao Kee #01-41. Run by an elderly couple. Besides the mild 'wok hei', I appreciated the fact that they used fresh prawns
Torzin SJuly 11, 2015Nice food court that has many well known shops from popiah, fried oyster and chendol. A nice place to have good meal with wonderful starter, main dish and dessert.- Char kway teow. Toa Payoh Fried Kway Teow 01-51 sees lots of regulars during meal times. CKT is wet & fragrant. Don't let the lack of queue fool u. Place an order & tell them ur table number
- Chai tow kway (fried carrot cake): So love d old school style at Xin Ji #01-60. It's chunky pieces, just like d good old days. Can taste d smokiness of d frying pan. Shiok!
- Ban Mian. Homestyle & generous bowl from Grandmother Handmade Noodles #01-12. Lots of vege. Soup served with egg white. $3.50 for this bowl, w egg added
- Roasted meat: Locals hv a little secret. Hong Wen Charcoal Roasted Meat #01-61 sells out of char siew, roasted pork & duck by 9am on weekends! Tried getting wantan noodles but char siew was long gone!
- Wantan noodles. Sampled A) Guang Zhou #01-41, B) Tanjong Rhu #01-49, & C) Hong Wen Roasts #01-61. B is the well-rounded winner. A has nice wantans but salty. C has the better char siew (BBQ pork)
- Prawn noodles: What I like abt Toa Payoh Hokkien Prawn Mee #01-36 is their robust soup. Natural-tasting & thick, full of prawn stock. Thumbs down 4 no 'taugeh' (bean sprouts) or 'kangkong' (spinach)
- Did u know? The neighbourhood & roads r named after Melaka-born Choa Kim Keat. He made his fortune in the tin business w Straits Trading Company. Source: Remember Singapore blog
- Chendol from Dove Desserts #01-21. Home-style goodness. Thoroughly enjoyable. Opens from lunch to pre-dinner
- Bak Chor Mee (minced meat noodles). Forgettable bowl from Lau Pa Sat Minced Meat Mee #01-02. Ingredients appear factory-made
- Vegetarian bee hoon. Bee hoon from Ru Yi #01-29 had a wetter style, compared to Yu Yuan #01-37. Nothing outstanding about dishes
- Popiah: True to locals' feedback, Old Long House Popiah #01-03 is definitely 1 of d better popiahs. Generous filling (unlike those @ Newton Circus), & nice punchy combo of garlic, chilli, sweet sauce
- Kaya butter toast set ($3.20). 157 Coffee House #01-57 uses traditional bread. Well-toasted & generous with kaya spread 👍🏼
- Economic rice (chai png). Lai Heng #01-08 is popular because it offers freshness & variety, as well as being affordable 👍🏼
- Industrial fans. The food centre has been installed with such HVLS fans, so it’s generally cool & breezy throughout the day
- Chicken rice. Decent serving from Lai Lai #01-18. Rice was aromatic. Chicken meat could be more springy. Chilli sauce was punchy!
Ht WongOctober 18, 2019HOM AROY THAI FOOD is so far the most authentic Thai food I ever try in Singapore Hawker Centre. Delicious n reasonable price.- Vegetarian bee hoon. Basic plate $2.50 from Yu Yuan #01-37. Soy crisps were a tad salty. Opt for some sauce for a wet meal 😁
- Pancake. Granny's Pancake is yummy but shouldn't there be a limit on how fluorescent orange the filling should look, before the sweetened grated coconut looks radioactive?
P Y WongSeptember 24, 2013The sauce is well made and thr mang kwang well cooked. Could be better if they put in chinese sausage and prawn slices. Still one of the best popiah around. ..
Try Economic Fried Bee Hoon Noodle at #01-26. Traditional fried vermicelli served with pickled green chillies.
- Hainan XiaochiDecember 24, 2017The traditional handmade Hainanese Kueh, known as "Yi Bua " and their Laksa are their signature dish.
- There's a stall @ d mkt #01-110 that sells fresh(!) coconut milk, so that u dun hv to. Gr8 for curries & kuehs. Nice ;-)
- Cephas TeoSeptember 4, 2015Master Chicken, Stall#01-18, Yummy Boneless Chicken Rice from $2.50 onwards. Operating Hours:1000-1900 (Tue-Sat), 1000-1530 hrs, Closed on Mondays.
- Thai food. Unimpressed with the padthai ($5) from Hom Aroy Thai Food #01-10. It lacks aroma
- Entrance to toilets has the popular dragon-inspired mosaic mural. Find the dragon playgrounds at nearby Blk 28 Lor 6 & Blk 240 Lor 1 Toa Payoh
- Braised duck rice: Tried fr Kway Chap stall #01-32 based on 4SQ tips. Disappointingly, duck meat lacked d fragrance dat accompany a good braise. Their herbal soup was also too salty :-P
Jeffrey AwOctober 11, 2012New HK style wonton mee tasted pretty good esp the roast duck, usually sold out by afternoon. Located beside the good old carrot cake stall.
Liew CHSeptember 26, 2011Chao Zhou Fish Ball Noodle is nice freshly hand make fish balls but only available Thurs - Sun business so darn good the long queue may make u give up !- Duck noodles ($4). Average preparation from Lorong 7 Kway Chap & Braised Duck #01-38. Duck meat was salty
Teo Li JieDecember 14, 2011Carrot cake stall is the best!! Homemade carrot cake; soft & fragrance. The chicken rice beside it also very nice
- Coin-operated pay phone. Find this at the back of the wet market
Goh BengJanuary 18, 2013Shi Xuan Chee Cheong Fan and fried bee hoon is very good. Think only open for breakfast
For good breakfast, yam cake and chee cheong fun at "House of Delicacies" is a must!- Jeffrey AwOctober 11, 2012Beef noodles world best and all the uncles ever so friendly. Happy eating... just too bad I've decided to abstain beef.
Jenny TohSeptember 28, 2013Todea like my b'dae heeeee , luch billy treat me now at toa payoh lor 7 sea food rest oso my frist time here .. Yummy yummy ..!!!
One of the best fishball noodles ever. Totally worth the calories!
Economical Rice from #01-08 has got to be the cheapest in the ENTIRE country! $2.20 for 4 dishes, incl fish!
Hainanese Laska is pretty nice and reasonably priced @$2.50
Zheng KaixiangSeptember 17, 2011Hai nan xing zhou beef noodles. Try the dry one with a big bowl of soup with beansprouts. Will nt regret...
