On the Grid : Whampoa Hawker Centre

"Whampoa Hawker Centre is a must-visit place for all foodies, as a visit to Balestier isn't complete without a stop to this hawker centre. It is known as the "Morning Market" and serves food from breakfast to lunch, whereas the Whampoa Makan Place next door at Block 90 is the "Night Market", serving food from the PM onwards. Home to some of the most famous local hawker stalls, including the sought-after "545 Whampoa Prawn Noodles". This prawn noodle stall racks up a lengthy crowd every morning thanks to its hearty broth accompanied by the savoury umami of the prawns. Another popular favourite with long queues is the fish soup stall further down on its right. Some of ubiquitous breakfast must-haves also include the "Tanglin Halt A1 Carrot Cake", Chee Kueh (steamed rice cake with heavenly salted radish) and many more. While you're at it, do pop by the wet market next door to bring back some fresh produce, or simply take in the morning market atmosphere." - OuterEdit
