I had read that the poh piah from this stall (#01-53, Whampoa Drive Blk 90). That they were generous with the ingredients used for their stuffings. Tried it, I didn't think much of it at all. Found them pretty unexceptional. There wasn't any garlic. Beside the boiled turnip, the portions of the rest of the fillings were measly. I'm sure I can easily find elsewhere that makes better. Made one wonder if the reason for it being around for so long is only because it is the only poh piah stall in this food centre.
