Sample of local food (Bukit Timah Hawker Centre)

This article is about my recent visit to the Bukit Timah Hawker Centre. Actually it was my first visit there. It is a two storey building with the ground floor been a traditional wet market ( less common nowadays) and the second floor is the hawker centre.

The hawker centre had about 40 stalls selling a variety of local delights. The below is what my frens and I had for lunch.

The below is the wonton and char siew noodle. The noodles' texture was quite good and the sauce base of black sauce and chilli compliment the noodles quite nicely. The char siew is also quite good.
The next picture is the fried carrot cake. This version is the one fried without the sweet sauce. As can be seen below, the exterior is fried to a crisp and the inside is soft and moist. ( unlike the sweet version)

The one that we bought was actually quite good although it would have been better if the exterior is a bit more crispy.

The following picture is the satay been hoon. It seem to be very popular as there was a long queue of people. My fren commented that the flavour was very good and was worth eating. ( should try it out next time, hopefully the queue is not so long)
The below is the char kuey teow. ( Singapore version) It was fried with cockles and fish cake and most importnatly it was fried with lard which give the dish the extra kick. It was alright although I still prefer the penang style of char kuey teow.
The below is the rojak. This is something quite commonly found in hawker centre. This is a chinese version. There is also the Indian rojak which is something like the chinese Ngo Hiang where there are a lot of fried items.
The last picture is a local desert.

Anyway I feel that if you happen to be in the area, you could drop by and try the large variety of local delights.
