When I am about to cover the last row of shops at the hawker centre, I chanced upon this stall that had a queue of about 6 people.
The stall sells only 3 items: Yam cake, Radish cake, Peanut porridge.
I had a craving for yam cake earlier in the day and that craving helped me decide to try this stall out.
I ordered the mixed platter of yam cake and radish cake, and a bowl of peanut porridge.
Here’s the verdict:
- - Yam cake: This is steamed in a 50cm circle tray, and the owner cuts pieces to fill each customer’s order. It is done Cantonese style, with a generous sprinkling of white and black sesame seeds. The yam cake is dark purple. This is one of the better ones that I have had. You can eat it on its own or with the sweet brown sauce and/ or chilli.
- - Radish cake: Also steamed in a 50cm circle tray, it has dried shrimp in it. Also delicious. Recommended.
- - Peanut porridge: Cantonese style smooth porridge, with soft peanuts. Eating there costs 70 cent, while takeaway is $1.
I liked what I ate, so I ordered two packs of mixed yam cake and radish cake to go.
This stall opens at 5pm in the evenings and will close when they sell out. This is usually about 7pm.
I recommend ordering the mixed yam cake and radish cake, so you can try both and see which you prefer.
Do go and try them out!
