I was recommended to try out the cuttlefish and the ‘elephant ears’ chips. It is indeed superb! I called to reserve and collect at 3.15 pm only to be told by the stall holder that they close at 3 pm. And when I arrived, I confirmed with him in person that they close at 3 pm. The stall holder also confirmed that he grilled the cuttlefish himself.

Located on the 2nd floor. The whole area was a bit confusing due to the many stalls there. You have to watch out for the signs and follow the directions to the stall. You can opt for 2 sets for purchase. Set A: a packet of cuttlefish with two packets of biscuits at $20. Set B: a packet of cuttlefish with one packet of biscuits at $15.50. For cuttlefish lovers, you will definitely like their cuttlefish, crispy and flavourful. And most importantly, it isn’t salty. The biscuits were surprisingly good as well. Enjoyed both the cuttlefish and biscuits. Would definitely be back to satisfy my cuttlefish craving! Strongly recommended.

I came here several times - but either it is closed or sold out. I came here earlier on a Saturday morning, and I am so excited to see it open and I can get both the cuttlefish and pig ear/butterfly biscuit to my heart’s content. They are all handmade which is unlike anything I have tried before. I am particularly wowed by the pig ear biscuit. It is produced in small batches, has that perfect thickness or thinness, crunchy and yet not oily despite that it is deep fried. It is simply addictive.

Interesting find when dining with friend's mum. Both items are mum's favourite, so bought for her to try. Read out loud the newspaper article "Engineer turns hawker" and remarked to my friend that I'm envious. Auntie amused me with her response. 🤣🤣🤣 Both items are freshly made, my mum and me love it. Thank you for preserving your family's legacy!

The best ear biscuit I ever ate!!! The last time I ate was more than 4-5 years ago. I still remember the taste & surprisingly it still taste the same ^^ The boss is friendly & patiently explained the reason why they have to sell in package. I truly understand & respect, it is not easy to preserve family business. I have ever seen some chicken rice stalls, they set a limit for chicken rice order according to chicken meat portion. I ever met a mixed rice stall owner who reluctant to sell me dishes without rice. Everyone has their way to run their business. If you don't agree, just walk away & buy from others, as simple as it is. Jia You!
