Kway Chap
56 Jalan Benaan Kapal (Map) 10am – 5pm
Wed, Thu, Sun & PH
This old couple sells humble breakfast fare like fried beehoon and noodles and caters to the many cabbies who take a mid-morning break here. But they also prepare pots of offal stews (kway chap) with rice sheet noodles. Their edge is how they make them fresh. You can tell by the texture and flavour. The intestines come softly crunchy and the belly pork slices, tofu, etc. are all stewed over low fire in a soy herbal braise they are easy on the herbal part). Dunk them in the vinegar chilli and this meal wakes you up comfortably for your next task ahead.
Lao Liang Pig Trotter Jelly & Shark Meat
Blk 166 Jalan Besar #02-37, Berseh Food Ctr (Map) 10am – 2.30pm
Tues
The worldwide ban on many sharks has naturally terminated their ability to offer a range of shark jelly. So they resorted to making this other Teochew delicacy. The edge they have in this dish is how they infused a whiff of ginger with the fragrant soy base stock. "It's Bentong Ginger," the lady boss reminds us, and it lends such a refreshing accent to the usual porky- offal sensation. The parts used are very fresh and not overly braised and have a very nice texture. Their chilli dip is also different; it’s own -made with blue ginger touches enhanced with vinegar and sesame seeds, very unique. The rice sheets or kway come very smooth and do not stick to each other and feel very substantial to the bite.
