My intention was just to get some fried bananas from Lee Kee at Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre but that irresistible aroma of char kway teow from the above stall enticed me to order a plate, even though I had already devoured a plate of wanton noodle from Tong Aik just 30 minutes earlier!
One thing I didn't like; it was indicated on the signboard that a plate of char kway teow cost S$3.00 / S$4.00 but the person taking the order automatically asked to collect S$4.00, without even the slightest courtesy to ask if we want "big" or "small".
Not a pushover nowadays; I clarified if the S$3.00 was unavailable and the reply was that I can still order the "small" portion. Serving size was expectedly little but my objection was just to try and not to overstuff my stretched tummy.
Verdict: it was enveloped with wok hei but lacked sweetness, which might not necessarily be a bad thing for those who can't stand sweet char kway teow. One thing I did enjoy was that the operator didn't stinge on the eggs. Worth a try if you are sharing with friends although I wouldn't count on it as a full meal.
