Guangdong Dun Tang Zheng Yu (廣東炖汤.蒸鱼) @ Geylang Bahru Food Centre - Steamed Dish Specialist In Hawker Centre

A stall that caught my eyes at the newly re-opened Geylang Bahru Food Centre is Guangdong Dun Tang Zheng Yu (廣東炖汤.蒸鱼) which sells a variety of soup and steamed dishes. Its really quite amazing that they can offer up to 29 different dishes at their small little kitchen.

Watercress Pork Rib Soup 4.2/5

Among the 17 different type of soups that they offered on the menu, I decided to go for the Watercress Pork Rib Soup ($3.50). Both the watercress and pork ribs have been cooked until soft, indicating that it has been boiled for hours. The soup was sweet and packed with flavours.

Gu Fa Steamed Sliced Fish 4/5

I am not sure what type of fish is used for the Gu Fa Steamed Sliced Fish ($6), but the sliced fish has a firm texture. The serving is considered quite a big portion for the price paid. It even comes with black fungus dressed in a savoury sweet sauce.

Salted Fish Steamed Minced Meat 3/5

Completing our meal, I ordered the Salted Fish Steamed Minced Meat ($6). Besides the salted fish, there are also white fungus in the minced meat. The steamed minced meat some how didn't taste satisfying due to the lack of texture (minced meat), it seems there was some cost cutting in the cooking. It would be acceptable if the accompanying sauce is not that sweet too.

Besides the dishes I tried, there are Steamed Egg, Chinese Sausage Steamed Chicken, Prawn Paste Steamed Pork, Kai Lan, Hong Kong Style Steamed Whole Fish, Blackbean Sauce Steamed Song Fish Head and more. What I like about Guangdong Dun Tang Zheng Yu is that you can get homely cooked food at the stall which you can order from their eclectic menu, making it a complete meal with 2/3 cooked dishes and a soup.

Hui Wei Chilli Ban Mian (回味辣椒板面) @ Geylang Bahru Food Centre - Shiok Dry Chilli Ban Mian

With the re-opening of Geylang Bahru Food Centre after its renovation, it is great to see many familiar stalls back. One of them is Hui Wei Chilli Ban Mian (回味辣椒板面) which has temporary moved to Toa Payoh during the renovation. The stall is now back and continue to sell a variety of noodle dishes such as Dry/Soup Ban Mian, a variety of La Mian, Seafood Ee Mian, Ke Kou Mian, Fu Zhou Fishball Noodle and more.

Signature Chilli Ban Mian 4.5/5

Of the many noodle dishes offering at the stall, a must try is the Signature Chilli Ban Mian ($4/$6). The bowl of handmade noodle comes with ikan bilis, meatball, poached egg, fried shallots, pork lard and minced meat.

I would recommend to give a good toss to coat the noodles evenly with the spicy and fragrant chilli sauce. The spicy level may be hard for some to tolerate and this is exactly why I enjoy it. It is damn shiok! Not only is the dry chilli sauce shiok, it has a nice aromatic kick to it that complement the noodle excellently. Besides the chilli sauce that holds the dish together, a worthy note is the handmade noodle that has a firm yet bouncy texture.

During my visit, there is constantly a long queue waiting to try their handmade noodles. It actually quite amazing to see how the humble little stall is able to offer 18 different noodle dishes on the menu.

Toa Payoh 93 Soon Kueh @ Geylang Bahru Food Centre - Freshly Handmade Traditional Kueh

After more than a year of renovation, it is great that Geylang Bahru Food Centre is finally opened for business again. A year ago, it is rather hard to get to the food centre but now the new Geylang Bahru Downtown line station is just 3 minutes walk away. It is now so convenient to get to the food centre.

A stall that caught my eyes is Toa Payoh 93 Soon Kueh with their handmade traditional kueh. The sight of the stall owners and staff kneading and rolling the dough, making the various kueh and steaming the freshly handmade kueh, just drew me to the stall.

Soon Kueh 4.2/5 and Png Kueh 4/5

I have the Soon Kueh ($1 each) and Png Kueh ($0.90 each). The Soon Kueh has an enjoyable chewy texture stuffed with shredded turnip, further flavoured by mushrooms and dried shrimps. My only complain is that the shredded turnip is a bit coarse. For the Png Kueh, it is stuffed with fragrant glutinous rice, peanuts and mushrooms. A balanced proportion of filling to rice flour skin ratio. The size is a bit small compare to elsewhere but for 90 cents, I am not complaining.

Abacus Seed 3/5

I also tried the Abacus Seed ($3) which is a traditional Hakka dish made with yam. Unfortunately the consistency is not there, some of the abacus seed tasted rather bland while some I can taste the yam taste. Besides that, the whole execution of the dish was not fragrant enough.
