Fu Lu Shou Curry Yong Tau Foo

I used to patronise Geylang East Food Centre for lunch when I was working around there two years ago but one stall that I never tried was the yong tao foo with the long queue. Perhaps I was not a fan of yong tao foo then but today I decided to try the curry yong tao foo to find out how good it is.


Reasonably priced at only $0.30 per piece, Fu Lu Shou Yong Tau Foo comes with an impressive variety of dishes ranging from fishball, meatball, fishcake, crab meat, wanton, ngor hiang, dried beancurd, cuttlefish, mushroom and vegetables etc. With the delightful sweetness of coconut milk and the subtle fragrance of lemon grass, the mouthwatering curry gravy is the best that I have tasted so far, just of the right thickness and spiciness and not oily at all.

Besides noodles, you can also choose to have Fu Lu Shou yong tau foo with the special yam rice. If you are a fan of curry yong tau foo like me, come down to Geylang East Food Centre and try it for yourself today.

Ng Soon Kee Fish And Duck Porridge

I was never a fan of fish soup until I tried Ng Soon Kee Fish And Duck Porridge. This stall in Geylang East Food Centre has the BEST FISH SOUP IN SINGAPORE. It is so popular, the waiting time is hardly less than 30 minutes. But let me assure you, once you taste the delicious soup, you will agree that the long wait is worthwhile.

What differentiates this award-winning fish soup from other mediocre ones is the extraordinary freshness of the fish. Displayed in front of the stall are slices of mackerel and pomfret that appear so fresh as though they were just caught from the ocean.


A bowl of mackerel fish soup, which costs only $3, comes with generous slices of fresh mackerel which are extremely thick and meaty. The mouthwatering soup is exceptionally tasty with delightful sweetness of fish and subtle spiciness of szechuan vegetables that cleverly remove any slightest tinge of fishy odour.

Indeed after tasting this fantastic fish soup, I won't want to waste my money on other fish soup. If you don't believe me, come down to Geylang East Food Centre and try it for yourself today.

278 Lor Mee

Where in Singapore can you get a bowl of lor mee with a braised chicken wing, braised meat, fish cake, ngor hiang and a whole braised egg for only $2?
The answer is in a stall in Geylang East Food Centre called 278 Lor Mee.


While most lor mee disappoint with gravy that is either not thick enough or having too strong herbal smell, 278 lor mee has a fine balance of thick starchy gravy with a characteristic herbal taste yet not masking the fragrant aroma of dark soy sauce. The savory gravy blends so well with the smooth noodles and crispy beansprouts, the lor mee is simply mouthwatering. The chicken wing and egg are so well-braised, they make you want to come back for more.

So come down to Geylang East Food Centre and have a bowl of delicious 278 lor mee today.
