Carrot Cake Chwee Kway

Carrot Cake Chwee Kway
Clementi Central Food Centre

I’ve heard loads about this place – man with the straw-hat who dishes up an incredible chai tow kueh (a savoury carrot cake stir fry). And depending on his mood, he can be serving either chai tow kuey or chwee kway (steamed rice cakes with preserved turnip).

We had chai tow kueh this afternoon, trying both the regular and the “black” version (chai tow kueh doused in thick dark sauce). It was nice enough, but I was far from being blown away. I still prefer the chai tow kueh stand in AMK, which never fails to impress with its delicious and fragrant rendition of the dish.
