Today went to Chinatown to eat after finishing my math specimen paper 1 at YMCA...kinda disappointing at first...thot of first going to e zhu chang fen store I went e last time but couldn't find it...den e char kway teow store wif e long queue tt i wanted to try was closed...end up eat mee pok da...hahaz I think after eating Chinatown's mee pok da I'll nvr eat mee pok anywhere else again...

Anyway Teo told me tt these "traditional" mee pok da stores at Chinatown have 1 thing in common...n tt is e use of a certain kind of preserved fish as e ingredient...e fish is used mainly in e soup (guaranteed no MSG added) n added to e mee pok as well for gd taste...also e noodles r nvr too dry n nvr stick together unlike some other stalls...they literally "flow" thru your mouth...whether e noodles stick depends on e cooking skills of e stallholder...hmmmzz Teo say if u wanna kaypoh kaypoh test e stallholder's skills...u order mee kia SOUP n u'll instantly be able to tell (dunno how it works haben try yet)

hmmmzz also found a stall selling delicious teochew dessert...like yam paste almond paste those kinda stuff...a bit ex $2 each bowl...but if u like these kinda stuff it's v worthwhile...
