Chai Wee Cuttlefish 335 Smith St #02-65, Chinatown Food Cplx Food Ctr (Map) 7.30am – 3.30pm Sun

This curious little stall doles out freshly baked reels of thin-pressed dried cuttlefish – the ones widely sold and eaten during Chinese New Year in Singapore. Their own-made ones stand head and shoulders above the factory produced ones. It is sweet, salty and done with a touch of secret recipe (perhaps fermented yam) and it is slowly fed into a 1.5m long machine griller and out comes these gorgeous little bites. It goes extremely well with black coffee or beer (which they sell in a craft beer stall just a few stalls away). They seem to be the only hawker selling this snack here.
