I drop by this place for breakfast on the way to work sometimes. Because of the Circle Line Stage 5 works nearby, the food centre is obscured from view from the main road. Perhaps this has affected business and only a handful of stalls are open in the morning. Amongst them are nasi padang stall, 2 drink stalls, a Hainanese curry rice stall (this must be Icemoon's favorite stall), a Teochew porridge stall and a fishball/prawn mee stall. No ikan bakar but there's ikan goreng, no satay but got pork chop, and no sugar cane juice but got kopi gau.<br /><br />Icemoon - I have never tried the Hainanese curry rice even though I have visited this hawker centre dozens of times.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-35131988426248801282010-11-01T23:22:06.152+08:002010-11-01T23:22:06.152+08:00In those days, a clerk was regarded as a well-paid...In those days, a clerk was regarded as a well-paid respectable job.
