7 Stalls to Delight You at Chong Pang Food Centre
August 27, 2017
We seldom explore the Northern parts of Singapore, but work took us to Yishun sometime last week, so we decided to have breakfast at Chong Pang Market & Food Centre. Many people have been raving about the nasi lemak served and kway chap. Let’s see what else is there!
Wan Xing Nasi Lemak
Serving light green-coloured rice, probably from the juices of pandan leaves, and infused with the aroma of coconut milk, Wan Xing Nasi Lemak has no lack of supporters. The rice looks good, but was sadly, not as aromatic as we expected. However, it is neither too moist nor too grainy, maintaining a good consistency throughout. You can either order their standard set menu, or select your own ala carte items. Mind you, the portion is HUGE.

Address: #01-134, Blk 105 Yishun Ring Road, Singapore 760105
Opening Hours: 6.30am to 9pm daily.
Ho Heng Kway Chap
We were told that the wait can be close to 45 minutes to over an hour on weekends. Lucky for us, there wasn’t much crowd on a Monday morning. Each piece of silky kway chap is well prepared, and soaked in a pretty decent savoury gravy. It comes with your choice of braised pork belly, braised egg, tau pok, and even braised innards.

Opening Hours: 7.30am to 2pm, no fixed rest days.
Tian Ji Shu Shi
We saw a crowd lining up in front of this stall, and joined in the “fun”. There are prawn noodle, pork ribs noodle, and noodle with a combination of prawn and pork ribs offered here. We went for the ultimate combo, but thought the broth would’ve been better if it’s richer and deeper in flavours. Perhaps, the dry one might have been better.

Opening Hours: 7am to 3pm. Closed on Tuesdays.
Super Penyet
As its name suggests, Super Penyet is famous for Ayam Penyet. A plate comes with aromatic nasi lemak rice enhanced by coconut milk. The chicken is well marinated such that its flavours went into the tender meat. It’s also fried to a crisp golden brown and we couldn’t help but finish the crispy skin first. The homemade sambal sauce, consisting of a blend of chilli, shallots, garlic, shrimp paste, tamarind and lime juice, packs a really good punch!

Opening Hours: 24 hours daily.
Chuan Kee Boneless Braised Duck
We prefer braised duck to roasted duck, and chancing upon this stall excites us. The braised rice has a nice bite and isn’t too mushy. Coupled with slices of tender and flavourful duck, every mouthful tickled our tastebuds. Each slice of duck has a layer of skin, making the meat even more delicious.

Address: #01-159, Blk 105 Yishun Ring Road, Singapore 760105
Opening Hours: Tue-Sun 10am to 8pm. Closed on Mondays.
Lu Xiang Ji
The fishball noodles, minced meat noodles, and chicken feet noodles are reasonably priced here. For the price of $2.50, you get a very generous serving. The noodles are a tad softer, yet still retains a nice bite.

Opening Hours: 5.30am to 2pm. Closed on Tuesdays.
Taiwan 8 Treasure Tau Huey
While flavoured tau huey is nothing new, this stall stands out by serving 8 treasure tau huey, with ingredients such as mung beans, green beans, peanuts, and sweet potato, just to name a few. While some of you might find the contrasting textures pleasant, we thought otherwise. In our opinion, it’s hard for the smooth tau huey to complement the crunchy peanuts.
