TECK OYSTER – EAST COAST, SINGAPORE

Advertisements

Probably one of the best on my Fried Oyster list. Now, when I exclaim best Fried Oyster, I don’t mean every time good lah. How good it is depends on whether uncle that day good mood or not. Yes, the uncle’s attitude was what deterred us from patronising them in the first place but after we tried it one faithful night, there wasn’t any turning back.

What I like about this stall is that uncle retains the authentic taste of Orh Luak which I reminiscent since young. Not many actually got to taste Fried Oyster during the 70s. I was fortunate cos my nanny and mummy dote on me. Hence this palate of mine got gastronomical since I was able to walk! So I actually checked with the uncle if his grandpa really sold fried oyster on pushcarts last time and he verified it. Taste is truly legendary and the flour is greyish in colour and tender like the old times. Really hope he keep frying or pass down to someone who is as dedicated to keep this tradition going!

Ah Chuan Fried Oyster Omelette – Toa Payoh, Singapore

Advertisements

Toa Payoh has many hidden gems (food of course) and I happen to get to know about this stall which apparently has been there for the longest time. Obviously for a non-TP resident, I wouldn’t know until someone tells me about it.

So I was planning my visit. I was told they are closed on Tuesdays, the same day as my off day. And I can’t visit them on any other days ‘cos they are opened only from 1.30pm to 5pm!!! I was thinking, wow, I like this kind of work also, less than 8hrs a day! So when I got my Monsays off too, I seize the opportunity to visit them the following week.

Look at the amount of garnishings on top!
  

After visiting them then i realized why they are opening so short hours daily. Reason is they are in semi-retirement mode, just passing time doing when they love and serving their regular diehard fans. At the same time, it made me realize also during this operational hours, they were frying non-stop and quality and service were not compromised.
 
 
Chilli sauce slightly sweet, spicy and sour. very nicely balance to boost your taste buds.
 
 
I’m a vacuum cleaner and I’m proud of it. It’s a way to show your appreciation of the good food and not wasting food at the same time!
 

Rating: 5/5. Prolly one of the best in Singapore by far.

Taste: Authentic like how I tasted when I was young. If you like it a little more crispy on the outside, request for it. But by default it’s already lightly crisp and tender inside.

Portion: Average

Service: Self-service

Ambience: Hawker Center but very high ceiling and good natural lighting.

Price: $4, $5 or $8. My portion of $5 comes with 8 oysters inside. 

RTE: Yes definitely!

Location: 22 Toa Payoh Lorong 7 Wet Market And Hawker Centre. Hours: 1.30pm to 5pm. Closed on Tuesdays.

Kim’s Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee – Eunos, Singapore

Advertisements

As I mentioned earlier, I was on a Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee roll and I’ve always wanted to pay this place a visit. Kim’s Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is one of the 3 pioneers for fried hokkien prawn mee in Singapore. Established in 1965, writing on this place cannot be more apt for SG50!

So before I visited Kim’s, I actually heard a lot about what happened to the food quality, what happened to Mr Tan’s life and stuff. I didn’t really want to know what happened, but what I saw was the 68 year old getting his hands dirty again and frying the noodles himself… yes, he is still in his long sleeves but I didn’t notice any bling Rolex. It seemed to me that he is trying his very best to get back the original flavour and quality. I was there on 2 separate nights and both nights Mr Tan was there to cook personally. Enough said, pictures.

My order of $8 portion. Plate is big, portion is alright.

For the $8 portion you get more seafood ingredients and bigger prawns.

Back a couple of days later to taste the $5 portion. Prawns are smaller but ingredients are still substantial.

Their famous Oyster Omelette.

Rating: 4/5.

Taste: On the first night, I ordered the $8 portion. Loads of ingredients, good nevertheless. I went back on another night to try again if there was consistency, taste was similar if not better. However the broth could be a little richer. Ingredients was substantial for the $5 portion. Love the pork lard on the sides but would prefer it more crispy. Chilli belachan was good but would be nicer if it was spicier. Their famous Oyster Omelette was really good, a must-order!

Portion: Good. Quite a bit of ingredients. 

Service: Ok. 

Ambience: Coffee shop style. 

Price: Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee 

RTE: Yes!

Location: 62B Jalan Eunos, Singapore 419510. Tel : 6747 8766. Operating Hours : 11am – 1am

Overall review: If you googled on this place, many bad reviews on how bad the noodles are can be seen everywhere. I believe if more people patronize Mr Tan, he may get back the original standards. But that being said, I still see regulars swinging by at 11pm to 12+am to indulge in his Hokkien Mee. So you be the judge. 😉

01-26 – Mountbatten, Singapore

Yeah I found it funny too, there isn’t any name for this stall but 4 huge ass digits. And I was looking for some good fried oyster. This stall seems like jack-of-all-trades selling so many fried items, but I tried it nevertheless.

My $5 of yumminess

Rating: 4.5/5

Taste: Surprisingly, the taste was pretty good! The crisp on the outer layers makes it pretty close to authenticity. Very nice sourish chilli sauce and good size oysters too! Good thing is, the lady took her time to fry and made it nice!

Portion: Average.

Service: Self-service…

Ambience: On the second row, air no good.

Price: $5

RTE: Probably. But I prefer the Punggol one at the back row.

Location: Old Kallang Airport Food Center #01-26.

Fried Oyster Stall #01-53 – Maxwell Market, Singapore

Advertisements

I was at Maxwell Market recently and was craving for some Fried Oyster when I spotted this stall #01-53. This is a One-Man-Operation stall apparently sells everything that is hawker fried…

The no name stall offering all the fried foods!

So I thought the food shouldn’t be that bad right? I was so wrong. The fried oyster is all chunked up and soggy. And above all, had to wait for 15 mins and paid $6 for a miserable plate. So the saying must be right… Jack of all trades, master of none?

See all the lumps!

See the lumpy flour which was terribly hard to eat.

I’m sharing this so that none of my readers will be conned by such poor culinary. For $6 I believe I should be getting at least better Fried Oyster than this!
