Special Yong Tau Foo might not look like anything out of the ordinary, but theyโ€™ve got a good selection of ingredients including pork belly and blanched kiam chye.

A large portion of fried Hokkien mee at Hoe Hokkien Mee starts at just $4. The noodles hold a consistent texture, and the thick prawn broth they are simmered in makes them extra slurp-worthy!

Lao Huang Hakka Niang Tou Fu is a family-run stall that sells Hakka-style noodles. Unlike most run-of-the-mill yong tau foo stalls where the ingredients are served just as they are, this particular stall takes a different approach as the pieces are hand-stuffed with minced meat. Better yet, each bowl of noodles is topped with a generous portion of minced meat. According to some online reviews, the fried yong tau foo pieces are freshly deep-fried upon order for added crispiness.

Fried carrot cake is a simple, no-frills hawker dish anyone can enjoy at any time of the day. Old-school deep-fried carrot cake sticks, on the other hand, are harder to come by. For a taste of both, head to Xiao Ling Fried Carrot Cake. Crispy on the outside yet chewy on the inside itโ€™d be easy to mistake the Carrot Cake Sticks (price TBD) for perfectly-shaped potato wedges as they are deep-fried in piping hot oil. If you want to stick to the classic Carrot Cake ($3/$4), you can also get them in either white or black.ย
