Bukit Timah Market. Got 2 stalls (they are actually brothers, long story this one) selling the white kind. Large slabs with tons of eggs. $2 only. Good stuff! Featured on that $2 wonderfood show before.

Wah Carrot cake, lor mee, nasi lemak and whatever else gona come next! if this keeps up, I think they need to start a brand new section just specially to cater to food talk liao. Hehehehe.
Actually I dun really mind if they do that; afterall 95%? of members here are singaporeans and this would be our other favorite pastime - Glorious FOOD!!!!!

for the west zone, it got to be this stall at Bukit Timah Market. "He Zong" is the label. There are 2 other stalls but are pretenders...

coffee shop in bukit gombak. Along ( opposite ) the mrt tracks, there is this stretch of shops n 2 coffee shops. the 2nd one ( if you coming from the direction of the MRT station itself). Stall open at 2am till lunch time . Ask for the $2 white carrot cake with chilli. You will see the chilli being spread over the carrot cake's surface. If you can take it, ask for lots of chilli, :sweat: :bsmilie: .IMHO Better than the Bukit timah one anytime. That is crap now when the dad retired and 1 of the son took over.

合众 is the one at the corner with the Channel U recommendation right? I've personally tried all 3 and I can say that Seng Kee is the best of the lot with 合众 being the worst and most inconsistent. Everytime I go, 合众 has different people frying and it is either too tasteless or salty.

Seng Kee though is always consistent, crispy to the bite and taste better than the rest.

Try it for yourself and decide.

i tried one of the other 2 stores before, the cake and the eggs are not firm and packed enough, hence they always fall into smaller pieces when i pick it up with chopsticks. Very irritating. 合众's is very firm.

As for inconsistency, i kinda of agree with you about differnt people behind the wok issue.
As for tasteless... i think if u take the newly fried one, the taste will be a bit bland because the flavour hasnt been absorbed into the carrot cakes. When you take the last few pieces of the batch, it will taste very good!

1. Old Airport Road Food Centre - near the famous 'Toa Payoh rojak' stall
2. Bedok North - there are two food centres, one near the market for the 'black' carrot cake, and the other near the interchange for the 'white' one.

And Ang Mo Kio Blk 119 (If I remember correctly.) also another of my fav. :lovegrin:

BIG portions for $1.5 with lotsa eggs (especially if you pack back!). But only available in the evening/night time.

Oh yes!!! That uncle has been there for ages!!
Fantastic black carrot cakes...

Might be block 118... but definitely it's opposite the blk 111 police post.
