Tiong Bahru Ngoh Hiang Prawn Cracker (#01-09 Kukoh 21 Food Centre, 1 Jalan Kukoh, tel : +65 9857 2732) came by way of recommendation. Thanks Vicky! What's mention worthy about their 五香 was that the ingredients did not taste generic/similar to most. Special mention goes to their outstanding prawn fritters (虾饼) which were slimmer, crispy and topped with bean sprouts and shelled prawns. Egg slices and ngoh hiong were home made and there's even pickled cucumber on the side to cut through all the fried stuff.

The only restriction to abide by was that we weren't able to choose specific items.

What's also impressive was their bee hoon. It's the best tasting one we've had from any wu xiang stall, flavoured with lard and garlic.

Chilli sauce was also nothing like the typical from wu xiang sellers. This one was spicy and tangy, spiked with some sharpness from chopped onions

One day later...

We came back the day after with pre-orders for portions for three from the day before. That kinda guarantees the portion but doesn't reduce the waiting time by very much because each order is freshly prepared. Stall's open only 2 hours a day (12-2pm).
