The dish also seems less oily than other CKTs out there, making it extremely light and easy to chow d...

Address: 435A Hougang Ave...

Joo Chiat Place Fried Kway Teow has been around since the 1950s, and their CKT is based on a family recipe. If you love a strong, discernible wok hei, you definitely have to try this, and just from a whiff, you’ll be able to tell that it has been cooked on a well-seasoned wok. We definitely recommend opting for the spicy option, as that adds a fair bit of kick and another layer of flavour! Addr...
