#3 – Seletar Sheng Mian
Introduction: Sivar Sheng Mian & Mian Fen Guo, a stick vendor, was highly appreciated by many foodies. The shang mian, chilli and soup were all highly regarded by many. People agreed that the traditional noodles were decent. The soup was good, sweet and strong. We finished the soup and did not feel thirsty (hence no MSG).

#4 – Tian Tian Fa
Introduction: Some like their fried oyster a little more starchy but I liked mine to be cooked all the way through and super crispy and this is what I got from Tian Tian Fa. Perhaps it was the lack of customers when I ordered that allowed more surface area on the pan to thinly lay out the oyster starch and egg mixture. Cooked to perfection and surprisingly not oily at all. The chili was robust with a nice balance of sweet and sour notes. The chili was more “chunky” than other places with visible pieces of garlic and chili seeds. Nonetheless, the chili went well with the dish with the sourness helping to cut through the richness of the dish.
Menu Items:
- Fried Oyster (Price from $4)
- White/Black Carrot Cake (Price from $3)
- Char Kway Teow (Price from $3)
Location: Lorong 8 Toa Payoh 01-42 Hawker Centre

#5 – Shun Li Prawn Noodles
Introduction: Great homemade chilli paste, flavourful prawn soup and unique noodles, especially the bee hoon mee combination!Simply the best prawn noodles locally! You get a pretty substantial portion for $5, and the noodles tasted really good after mixing it up with the savoury concocted sauce! Prawns were fresh too and the soup by the side was rich and flavourful!
Menu Items:
- Prawn Noodle Soup (Price from $4)
- Prawn Mee Dry (Price from $5)
Location: Blk, 210 Lor 8 Toa Payoh, Singapore 310210

#6 – Good Luck BBQ
Introduction: Good Luck BBQ ‘s Carrot Cake could not fail to find a congenial foil for the sugary spuds ($2.50, $3, $4). Eggs are fried beyond crispiness, and radish pieces don’t show signs of burning. Served alongside a generous scoop of chye poh, the combination makes the dish less smoky and more savoury.
Menu Items:
- BBQ Chicken Wings (Price from $1.40)
- Satay
Location: BLK 210, Toa Payoh Lorong 8, #01-13

#7 – East Seafood White Beehoon
Introduction: The most obvious difference is that they serve this dish in a bowl rather than on a plate. The gravy was more soup like which is not like the starchy, oily cream sauce I’m used too but nevertheless chock full of flavor. If one bowl of fish soup had an infant with a white mee hoon, this would be it. This food would definitely taste a lot cleaner and would be perfect for you.
Menu Items:
- Lala Prawn and Crayfish White Meehoon (Price from $20)
- Sambal Sotong (Price from $15)
- Fried Prawn Balls (Price $10)

#10 – Four Seasons Ching Teng
Introduction: The first thing that strikes me is that it was less sweet than the other versions that I am accustom too. Its very well balanced in my opinion and it had a thirst quenching feel to it which I liked.
The next thing I noticed is that the cheng tng came packed with ingredients which included a big piece of dried fruit which I think was an apricot. Good value for just $2.20.
Menu Items:
- Four Seasons Ching Teng (Price from $2)
- Chendol (Price from $2)
