Mix and Match

Having your dinner with a group of friends can be pretty interesting too. Rather than waiting for the same old guy, placing food orders for a big group of people, wouldn't it be much more interesting if everyone pick an item or two and share it among yourselves?

'Ngoh Hiang'(五香)
If you are having your meals with a group of people, this would be one of the best
choices. Imagine what sort are the various types of combinations that you could be
getting. Rather than going with the same old stuff, life can be much more
interesting if you have been adding sparks or surprises into it. (In fact, one of
the most interesting meal that I have taken recently would be 2 big metal bowl of
'Yong Tau Hu' that the group of us have ordered together. And we almost puked. :P By the way, the most interesting part about the meal isn't just about the food
only, the ingredients that we have chosen are pretty hilarious too. :D)

Anyway, for a start, the fried Bee Hoon over here is pretty nice. Although it's
pretty plain, but the Bee Hoon isn't too dry or too wet and it's pretty tangy.
However, it would be great it they can fried it with bean sprouts. :P

Unlike some other stalls out there, the ingredients that were prepared over
here are not coated with a thick layer of oil. I wonder how long does it take for
the helpers of this stall to perfect the cooking of the 'Ngoh Hiang'. Even though
I only place an order for a few types of ingredients (Prawn Fritters, Popiah,
Yam Roll, 'Wu Xiang'), but all of them are not too oily at all. In fact, I love the
crispy outer layer and the delicious ingredients that were wrapped inside each
individual ingredient. By the way, if I'm not mistaken, they have prepared 2
different types of prawn fritters over here. One that comes with a prawn and one
that comes with a few little prawns. (In fact, I wonder if it's due to the
overdose of 'Prawn Fritters' that make me have the habit of eating both the
shells and the flesh of a fried prawn.)

A sneak peek of the ingredients that they have prepared here.

Anyway, here's the menu of the 'Ngoh Hiang' stall. It should give you a rough
idea of what they are preparing and serving over here and also the charges for
the individual ingredient.

The name of this stall would be 'Sin Sin Prawn Crackers'(新新虾饼).
It's located inside 'Toa Payoh Lorong 8 Market and Food Centre'.
