Mrs Lee partially hidden by the stack of Chwee Kway in their metal moulds laid out on rounds boards stacked on top of one another!

Chwee Kway is essentially a steamed rice cake topped with diced preserved radish. At this stall, the owners make everything by hand, not machined made. This means that they have to wake up at 5am every day to start the preparation. In addition, they made the preserved radish (chye poh) differently from other stalls by just stir frying it for 2 hours with onion, garlic and pork lard (without sugar).

As I was taking photos of the facade after having made my order, Mr Lee, 63 years old suddenly popped up (in front of me) and proudly showed me his City Food Hunt 2013 certificate which he just received! I could sense his pride and joy. With more than 54 years in this line of business, it was not an easy feat! Kudos! Many more years to come!

Chwee Kway $1.20

4 pieces of Chwee Kway for $1.20. Unlike else where, you get toothpick(s) instead of fork or spoon.

Chwee Kway $1.20

The Chwee Kway was not bad; soft yet firm. It was tasted pretty much the same as those at other stalls. What was unique was the chey poh.

When I got the Chwee Kway, the first thought that went into my mind was... Aiya, auntie give so little chye poh. After eating all the Chwee Kway, I suspect that the reason was because the way their version of chye poh was more salty. Beside being salty, their chye poh was oh-so fragrant (must be the pork lard)!! Hence, the amount given was sufficient.

Worth a try.

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.

The Chwee Kueh had little "Cai Poh". The "Cai Poh" tasted more sweet than savoury. The Chwee Kueh was just right not too soft or too floury. 

Overall, this Chwee Kueh was not oily but was average in taste. There was too little "Cai Poh" given.

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.

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 how food are make with them keeping such a traditional rendition.

While most of the popular Chwee Kueh stalls uses vegetables oil for their "chye poh" (preserved raddish), these from Ghim Moh had retained its traditional method, insisting on the use of pork lard.

As compared to others, Ghim moh's Chye Poh is saltier however, I really loves the Kueh that they took out of those scalding hot aluminium cups. They are wobbly and soft in texture.

Though they are of the traditional taste, I still prefer the sweeter chye poh from bedok Chwee Kueh. Still, in conclusion, such traditional taste of Chwee Kueh is hard to come by, better appreciate its taste before its gone.

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.

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.

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.

The star of the show is the radish. I haven't been quite able to point out the star ingredient in this pot of pickled radish i see at the stall. It is so fragrant and it complements the kueh perfectly. This radish is on the salty side, I have eaten most which are slightly sweeter but this scores with that savoury kick.

I see the stall owners painfally stacking the little metal cup shaped containers and steaming them everyday.

Definitely a must eat if you drop by Ghim Moh Market! Always ask more more radish!!
