(1) I don't eat that anymore cos its fattening. But that day I saw a char kway teow stall (only sells char kway teow) at a very old hawker centre at Queenway/Farrer area. Sorry, I don't really know the name of the place, but I know how to go there.
(2) Out of convenience, I usually buy mine from Fengshan hawker centre. Fengshan is what I call it - don't know if its the actual name or not.
(3) Durian everywhere also got mah. Outside Bedok NTUC Fairprice....go at 9 pm, cheaper cos they have too many boxes and reducing number of customers. Of course the other choice is Geylang (Sims Ave) which I don't think you wanna go.
(4) Sorry, I don't eat hae mee.
(5) The best one I've had is at Ang Mo Kio central, the hawker centre which is rectangular in shape (the other one is roundish). There are two stalls together in the corner. Anyone will do.
Question is: Are you sure you wanna spend so much time and energy running around for S$2-3 plates of food? -
got 2 stalls....both oso not bad.....though i prefer the one with the lao auntie....but some ppl prefer the other one.....i think they are side by side....
not sure if they are still around....haben been back to eat for quite some time le...
and if u are there, do rber to check out the dessert stall at the other side... -
Oh yah, durians are now available whole year round....but in October, the places may be limited.

oei, i don't have the resources to make annual trips leh. so if i return, must try my favourite local food lah. but then, u don't know names one, only know how to go.
we hv char kuay teow and hae mee here also but not the same. that's why i wanna eat good ones. and if i'm gonna gain calories from eating, i better make sure it's good or i love it.
i hv a driver (hopefully) so i should be able to get around. besides, i have nothing on my agenda except to visit my dad who is ill. so, what do one do in sg except eat, right?
we hv durians here too but thai durians. i wanna eat local durians. especially the bitter ones and the d24 or izzit sultan durians. oh, i can't wait. i am gonna go on diet from now on and then pig out in sg. my friends just returned from m'sia and each gained 5lbs!!!! i better lose those 5lbs before i fill it up in sg.
thanks vm, gentlerock. -

Oooh, sorry to hear about your dad. Nothing critical, I hope.
I'm still in SG now, trying to clear up my housing loan as soon as possible. heeee.....from the way things are going, I think I'll owe the bank money till even after my retirement.
How long will you be here and which area will you be staying at anyway? May be easier to recommend something knowing the above information. -
Orh, sorry lah, misunderstood lah.Originally posted by ditzy:They didn't operate for two years but now they're back in action, if they're not operating, would I tell you in the first place?
Okay, then this one I can just walk there. They are still one of the best yah? -
Oh, I just realised you were talking about satay beehoon too. haha. They're still there....just had it 1-2 months ago. I used to eat there when young because I lived at Yio Chu Kang road area (nearby).Originally posted by FireIce:i think me and gentlerock toking abt the same one....

That Bedok corner hawker centre has been renovated and looks like a resort now....wooden tables and chairs outdoors, mini palm trees, etc. And the kang kong jiu fish stall is still there and still charging 5 bucks for it. They also own the very expensive cheng tng stall beside it. And I heard they own a string of landed property somewhere too.Originally posted by littlestream:Oh, izzit that S$5 a plate one? Across from Bedok army camp izzit? Eh, my info is like 80s info.
But the one I was referring to is opposite a JC (only opened for dinner). Its at a hawker centre about 5 minutes drive from Bedok Corner. OK OK...I'll find out the name of the place and inform you later. Its high time I learned names anyway.
There's another famous satay beehoon at Bedok Lagoon hawker centre (also renovated), sold by hawkers whom I call "gentle giants with ballet fingers" (they look like bodybuilders). but unless you're willing to line up for a long time, I say better to forget this one. -
