    I love and frequent this stall. The uncle cooks the oyster omelette and aunty cooks the CKT. They are always consistent, any day anytime. This is my favourite CKT stall I’ve ever tried in SG. Hope this gets the top spot at the end of the series.

    Used to eat when it was $2.50 for one plate until now the price inflation, but still taste as good even after 12 years of eating it, can’t get sick of it but avoid heavy crowd hours to avoid disappointment as they tend to cook faster making the taste drop by abit

    Tried the Fried Kway Teow and Fried Oyster this week only to my disappointment! There was a queue of 8 when I was there, the kway teow was fried in batches of 2 to 3 plates and the fried oyster was fried in 2. No 'wok hei' and the fried kway teow's sauce was cloying, jelak! Fried Oyster didn't fare better! Not enough starch to crisp the dish.... The rave reviews brought constant queues and the uncle and aunty tried speeding up and didn't allow enough sufficient cooking times....

    I just went to try this. Long queue, waited for about 20 to 25 minutes. Maybe it became busy after your video. My experience, sorry to say, horrible. Way too oily, chili not fried thoroughly and each bite I took I can only taste the chili paste. There is no CKT taste to it at all, don’t say wok hey. Felt sick after eating cos too oily. However, looking at all the positive comments, think though, the chef was not able to handle the crowd, so end up anyhow cook and fry. So next time if I really want to give it another chance, I will go when there its not crowded. But as of now, too sick to think of trying it again.

    I’m a huge fan of the channel but this is a HUGE disappointment after realising it to be a phenomenal from Alderic. 😢 I came here 1-2 years back and it was OK but their oyster omelette is truly one of the best. Today I came back bringing others to try out the ‘gate-keep’ char kway tiao and turns out after braving the 30mins+ Q, it was oily, uneven frying and even tasteless. Only the oyster omelette remains the same standard. Maybe it was the lunch crowd but… This was so not ‘3 char kway tiao’ standard 😭
