Pek Kio Hawker Centre


This fish soup is good but to be frank I tried better ones. Nonetheless it still is worth a try for those who haven. The fish slices are sliced jus of the right thickness and so fresh tt u can almost taste the ocean. Just $3.50 for a gd bowl of soup and rice. The highlight instead shld be its chilli. Chilli padi soaked in a base of chopped up garlic and wat I think shld be fish sauce. U cant resist dipping the fish slice or perhaps even ur rice in it.I couldn’t stop myself from finishing my rice. Hey! I was supposed to stop cos I had to leave some tummy for Hokkein Mee.



Wow can u believe this portion is only $2.50? LIKE DUH? Who sells such portion at such a prize? AM I DREAMING? A little pinch did the trick.

No kidding. Yupp at only $2.50, this plate of Hokkein Mee is packed full of sotong (No, not Paul) & prawns. It’s wet but not too wet and they use a combination of thin n thick bee hoon. However I think Whampoo’s Hokkein Mee is still the best. I seriously dk wat’s lacking but jus sth is lacking here.

I think many know this place for yummy Wanton Mee. There nv fails to be a long queue in front of tt stall. Sometimes, I think the stall owner purposely causes tt queue to form cos it wants to create the impression tt it’s super yummy. This is bull-shit la. I jus like to think on the sadist side.



We alw wanted to try the Cong You Bing ( Spring Onion Pancake) here and finally we could. Previously we tried the red bean flavour and aye it disappointed.

“Like Hum Chi Pang leh” the mum lamented. “somemore so ex…$4 for 1 Hum Chi Pang look-alike…”

Now, “$3.50 for a roti prata? Indian n Chinese make got diff huh, 1 so much more ex then the other? Then got onion meh?” the mum commented.


HAHA dang funny. Plus the Sweet & Sour Ramen was yuck. Mayb I was too greedy and added too much vinegar but it was yucky. Hmm the queue suggested otherwise… But perhaps it was bcos we didn’t eat their signatures like Wo Tie aka fried dumplings or its Xiao Long Bao.



The Teochew Fish Soup didn’t disappoint tho. It was refreshing and clear and light. Now this is special, they added fried Tau Kee in, which is beancurd skin and this made the whole eating experience more enjoyable cos there was a contrast in the mouth.


This chilli packs punch! :)


The Otah is alright but it doesnt pack much punch nor chewyness to it. It's $1.50 for one, u can give it a shot!

Now I wanna try the prawn noodles and chicken rice the next time I’m here!
