Before Ghim Moh Hawker Centre closed for renovation, I went to try the Ghim Moh Chwee Kueh. There was no queue at this stall and I thought they were closed. Luckily the aunty at the stall said that they still have left some to sell to me.Their menu board had a price for 20 pieces at $6 but I wonder who was such big eater buying 20 in a go. I just bought 8 pieces for $2.40 for myself.The Chwee Kueh had little "Cai Poh". The "Cai Poh" tasted more sweet than savoury. The Chwee Kueh was just right n

A visit to Ghim Moh Food Centre is never complete without having such traditional old school Chwee Kueh too, besides other popular dishes like its roasted duck and carrot cake. Why are their Chwee Kueh famous? A close look observation into the stall would definitely give you more hints to the answers.Unlike the typical Chwee Kueh stalls, the old couple wake up early daily in the morning to prepare from the scratch instead of getting them from the factory. I'm glad that we are still able to see h

I was recommended to the chwee kueh from this stall by one of my friends. She said it is really good because it is handmade. Indeed, when I ordered 4 pieces to try, I felt that the chwee kueh is really soft not too chewy. The chai poh topping is also very tasty. It is slightly different from what I used to have from other stalls, but the taste is quite refreshing and it suits the plain chwee kueh very well. In addition, the chilli is also very delicious. It is more expensive than other stalls, b

I love chwee kueh especially those with lots of fried turnip and chilli to compliant the otherwise plain chwee kueh. The key ingredient that makes or break the chwee kueh got to be the fried turnip.this stall's kueh is not only soft but when it is accompanied with the fried turnip, it is just pure goodness! The fried turnips have a traditional taste to them and it is really fragrant.

Another stall that has been in this food centre for more than a decade. Queue can be anticipate during weekends and mornings. The texture of the chwee kueh is firmer if you compared it with Bedok's, another famous brand in Chwee Kueh. The preserved radish has got a nice fragrance but less sweet in taste. The color is much lighter too and it is not as salty as expected. I ordered for 4 pieces at $1.20, slightly higher than Bedok's. I enjoy the old school taste very much.

My son bought the chwee keuh from this famous stall in Ghim Moh. I was told this stall has been around for a long time. I tried but it did not make me a fan. I still prefer my chwee kueh from Bedok's. Their texture is much soft as compared to the firmer version of Ghim Moh's. The version of their preserved radish is towards the salty version, less sweet though and fragrant. The minimum order is 4 for $1.20.

Chwee Kueh is a common Singapore breakfast. It is basically steam rice flour topped with preserved radish (Chye Poh). Usually the preserved radish (Chye Poh) topping is sweet but Ghim Moh Chwee Kueh's version is different. This is the first time I have the salty version. According to what I googled on the web, this supposed to be the traditional receipt. It is kind if an acquired taste. Either you love it or hate it.

If I am not wrong, the uncle makes the kueh or rice cake himself and I must say I am very impressed with the kueh. Unlike some other stalls where the euh is still and rubbery, this is soft and wobbly and I love its texture. The chai poh is very fragrant and its saltiness complements the kueh very nicely. I also love its chilli as it adds some spicy kick to the chwee kway. This stall's chwee kway is a must try!

I am never a big fans of chwee kuey, as I think the dish is simply too oily for me. I went to Ghim Moh market for the chicken rice last weekend. After the meal, I passed by this stall, and saw the owners busy preparing the chwee kuey. It attracts my attention coz I never seen the making of chwee kuey I couldn't stop myself but bought a few chwee kuey to try then. To my surprise, the kuey is so soft and nice to chew on. Perhaps it's because the kuey is freshly made.The chye poh (preserved radish)

Whenever we are at ghim moh or around the vicinity, we will definitely head over and buy the delicious chwee kueh. The chai po is totally delicious, sweetish and salty. It is also very salty. The kueh is so smooth, very chewy, quite bland but when you eat with the chai po, it is really delicious. though this dish can be a little oily and fattening, so I will always share with my sister or mother.

Chwee kueh, the little steamed rice cakes topped with preserved radish and chilli sauce, a perfect dish for breakfast or tea!Chwee kueh stalls are common in many hawker centres these days but some of them taste so typical as I see many branches of a chwee kueh franchise around the island.This Ghim Moh Chwee Kueh is different, I have eaten it for over ten years and it still tastes as perfect as ever. The rice cake is not the kind which you would find extremely soft but it is of the right texture.
