It's easy to overlook this little Chinese dumpling and noodle stall (466 Crawford Lane #01-12) when most people come over here for Tai Hwa instead. But it was good in its own right, like those guotie above, whose chive-based stuffing was much better than that sweet duck stuff at DaXi. The xiaolongbao were thicker-skinned and less refined than Din Tai Fung, but nonetheless were solid for a kopitiam offering and better than Hong Peng.

The big surprise for me was the congyoubing, which wasn't the light and airy thing that I was expecting, but wasn't anywhere as dense as it looked either. In fact, it consisted of a crunchy yet thin exterior around a chewier interior with scallion oil inside, seasoned just right and spread evenly thoughout, all while providing a savory taste that lingered on the tongue afterwards. There were plenty of tables available on a Saturday night too, so I'm sure that I'll be back. Thanks for the tip!
