Some interesting stalls to check out include Crispy Kunafa, offering a wide range of ever-popular crispy kunafa dessert. While they have plenty of sweet flavours such as Biscoff and Pistachio, definitely give their savoury Salted Egg Yolk Charcoal Kunafa (price TBD) a shot.

The Original Vadai, known for their legendary Prawn Vadai (price TBD), has a stall there as well. Each round is painstakingly prepared by hand: a small amount of batter is hand-shaped, and then topped with prawn or ikan bilis. It’s then thrown into the hot oil and deep-fried till golden brown, with some rounds of light tossing in between.,
