Chee cheong fun (CCF) is like the perfect breakfast food. Simple, light, and customisable with so many different fillings, it’s even better fresh, hot, and silky smooth. The good news is you can find such quality CCF right at home in our hawker centres: Yong Huat Delight is well known in 50A Marine Terrace Market for their handmade chee cheong fun that’s sold at affordable prices!Â

What makes Yong Huat Delight’s chee cheong fun special is that the CCF here is truly made from scratch! Instead of simply using rice flour, hawker Ms Liang Yuan soaks and grinds actual rice every day in order to make the rice slurry needed for the perfect chee cheong fun.Â

Each roll of chee cheong fun is made to order, using methods Ms Liang learnt in her native home in Guangzhou. While this means that your order will take some time, you’ll be rewarded for your patience with soft, thin rice sheets that don’t easily tear, packed with your choice of 10 different fillings available. The CCF is then soaked in light, sweet soy sauce.Â

Plain Chee Cheong Fun is $2.50, while CCF with egg or vegetables is $3 and the ones with meat fillings costs $3.50. Go for the classic Chee Cheong Fun w/ Prawns ($3.50) combo if you are a fan of fresh, juicy prawns, or try the Chee Cheong Fun with Mangkuang & Shrimps ($3.50) for something more unusual. The crunchy shredded turnip and dried shrimp provide a fun contrast to the soft, smooth texture of the chee cheong fun that will leave you wanting more.  Â

Also, help yourself to the crunchy chye poh mixed with chilli padi for an extra punch to kickstart your day! You can add as much as you like of the condiment, which goes well with just about every CCF filling available.Â

Other than their famous CCF, Yong Huat Delight also has a range of porridge options if you prefer something more substantial for breakfast. Try their handmade minced pork meatballs, available with their Peanut Meatball Porridge and Century Egg Meatball Porridge, both priced at $4.Â
Alternatively, try their signature Boat Porridge ($6.50). Their version of this humble Hong Kong dish comes with a generous amount of ingredients such as fish, prawns, and cuttlefish on top of thick, creamy congee stewed with pork bones for added flavour.Â
