Kim Lee Carrot Cake 金利菜头粿 – Sims Place, Singapore

Fried Carrot Cake, Singapore

Sims Place Market & Food Centre is my regular haunt when I was back in Singapore and this carrot cake stall is the one I frequent quite a bit. I’ve tried all the fried carrot cake stalls there and this one has the traditional taste (古早) that I remember from young. This stall is very specialize, only one product in 2 different flavors, unlike those you see elsewhere with fried carrot cake, fried hokkien mee, fried kway teow and fried oyster omelette all in one. The steamed carrot cake is self-made (they have a steamer within the stall, hence the tenderness maintained and so is the price, which is why they still can sell at prices of $2 and $3. Try it for yourself, and you’ll be surprise by what you’ll be tasting. 🙂

$2 only, portion is like some other stalls' $3. Between the black and white ones, I like the former 'cos of the nice 'burnt' sweet sauce taste.

Fried Carrot Cake @ 49 Sims Place

Fried Carrot Cake

Back to my favourite eating place at Sims Place Hawker… tried out this carrot cake stall before and went back to feature them.

The humble little stall at the corner in the middle rows... middle age couple running the place. Lady is preparing the plain carrot cakes by cutting them into smaller pieces by pushing into a mould cutter which the man is doing all the frying.
Mum loves the white version which is original Teochew style. Loads of egg is added into the frying.
This is the Singaporean black version. I like the black version cos it has sweet sauce added into it and after frying it has a very nice burn taste... and this stall does it very well.

Rating: 5/5

Taste: Very nice. The carrot cake is homemade. That makes the carrot cake a lot nicer and different from the rest of the stalls.

Portion: Above average.

Price: $2.00 a plate only…

RTE: Yes!!!

Location: 49 Sims Place #01-30 (middle row furthest from the carpark & toilets)

Fried Carrot Cake

Had a lunch appointment with Joy today and wanted to bring her try one pretty good Wan Tan Noodles stall located at the above mentioned address’s coffeeshop. The stalls in this coffeeshop only sell in the morning and afternoon…. night time is only the Tse Char stall… and they are closed on weekends.

When we arrived, the silly noodles stall was closed! Much to our dismay, we had fish soup instead. The fish soup had the quantity but not quality, hence it did not make it here. I tried the fried carrot cake before, hence I ordered it on the side and let Joy try if it’s really good. After trying, she said it’s really good and with loads of egg and sping onion on top. Then she went on to tell me what her mother use to tell her about eating more spring onions to become clever… haha…
