Gina’s Vadai

They moved from humble to hero with stalls in the Orchard, Suntec and Katong areas, then back to a simple hawker stall, like how we first noticed them 20 years ago in a Kallang Bahru coffeeshop. Gina is still around hand making this gorgeous Indian prawn vadai or doughnut. We like it because it’s not so traditional as she does not ferment the dough as boldly as her peers. It tastes like a crispy Chinese hae pia or prawn cake, with a couple of small grey prawns embedded in it. She also offers cheese, peanut and ikan bilis versions. And never forget to chomp it with a piece of green chilli (which she provides), if you dare. In fact, just do it and live to tell this unique experience.
