This stall is tucked away at the corner of a coffee shop within the quiet estate of Bukit Merah. This stall is manned by a few friendly Aunties. They are always patient and smiling. Sometimes i took a little longer to decide what i want and sometimes i was just plain indecisive but they never did try to rush me.

Some of my usual favourites are Soon Kueh, Glutinous Rice Cake, Ang Ku Kueh and Abacus Seeds.
Soon Kueh.

Soon Kueh.

 
Soon Kueh. I usually ordered at least 5 of them to have it packed nicely in a box. The size of the soon kueh is not particularly big. The skin is rather translucent with a certain level of chewiness. Auntie always scattered handful of sesame seeds on it after she done packing them in the box. There are 2 types of filling : turnips and bamboo shoots. I only and always go for the turnips filling as i could not quite appreciate the strange taste of the bamboo shoots. The filling consists of turnips and a handful of dried shrimps in it.

I ever ordered the bamboo shoot filling once but i did not like it enough to finish it.

This is definitely one of the better Soon Kueh i ever tasted.
Glutinous Rice Cake.

Glutinous Rice Cake.

 
Glutinous Rice Cake. Unlike the Soon Kueh, Glutinous Rice Cake has already been packed into 5 in a box. These boxes of Glutinous Rice Cake were displayed at the stall for self-service. The skin is not too thick with a desirable chewiness. The filling is mainly glutinous rice with mushroom, dried shrimps and peanuts. The glutinous rice is of the right texture with a delightful softness and fragrance.

It is served with the usual thick black sauce and their special chilli sauce. A request for extra chilli and black sauce would be charged for a cost. Same type of black sauce and chilli sauce are given with the Soon Kueh too. The black sauce is rather thick and slightly sweet in taste. I personally felt it complemented the Soon Kueh better than the Glutinous Rice Cake. The chilli goes well with both though.
Ang Ku Kueh.

Ang Ku Kueh.

 
Ang Ku Kueh. Their Ang Ku Kueh came in different types of flavor including durian, mango and peach. I tried it once for experience sake. Though no particularly strong like or dislike, it still got me to stick to the traditional flavors like the peanuts and salted bean. The skin of these Ang Ku Kueh is of the right thickness with just the right chewiness as well. The filling is nicely done too to give it a well-balanced sweetness. Both the peanuts and salted bean are equally good.

These Ang Ku Kueh are easily one of the best in Singapore.
Abacus Seeds.

Abacus Seeds.

 
Abacus Seeds. It is not a secret that i am absolutely crazy with their Abacus Seeds. These abacus seeds still retained a nice amount of yam taste. It is moulded into the bite sized then boiled it first before stir-fried with ingredients like mushroom and dried shrimps to give it the desirable taste. It is then garnished with dried shallots and chopped coriander before served. These abacus seeds came into 2 sizes : the really big box and the usual round container. As there is no one in the family enjoys eating it so i always ended up going for the smaller box.

This traditional kueh stall is definitely the gem of Bukit Merah estate.
