Xiang Xiang Cooked Food

Got some ondeh ondeh ($2 for 4) when I was here on a workday Tue 7:30am. Thick skin with substantial melting Gula Melaka cube in the middle. I sense frustration of some reviewers who journey all the way only to find items are sold out. I view this as decent snacks (grab only if you’re in the area) by very hardworking couple wishing to only sell certain volume each day

Was recommended this place by a colleague, and when I heard that they sell out by 8am, I decided to make a trip down. I woke up at 5am on a Saturday and caught the first bus from my place to Chinatown Complex. There was already a queue at the stall when I reached at 6.30am but I managed to get everything on the menu except for the tapioca sandwich. All the items were really yummy, though I felt the ondeh ondeh was a bit too large. After having breakfast and coffee and returning to the stall at 7.54am, they had already switched off their lights and were sold out. So come early if you want to have a taste of these items.

Very delicious. Price increased by 20% to 33%. Fried sweet potato balls taste just like how my late-grandma made it. Also like the sesame ball, ondeh ondeh, putu mayam. No artificial colouring in the food, just the way I like it.

The sweet potato balls are very dense and yummy! Always came at 10am and their shutters were already down so this time, I arrived at 6:20am before their official opening time and there was already a queue of 3 pax before me. Spent around 5 minutes in the queue. Aunty has a very humble and friendly personality and says she sells out by 9am or 9ish in the morning. Must go early if want to get this gem!

I once joked that on my birthday, I would be content if I could have my stomach’s worth of sweet potato balls from this stall. Yes it’s that good. And perhaps I wasn’t joking. They sell out by 730am so the early bird catches the worms (balls).
