Hawker stall at Fengshan Centre known for traditional fried and steamed carrot cake.
Lao Chen Guo Dang is a dedicated carrot cake (chai tow kway) specialist at Fengshan Centre, turning the humble rice-flour cake into the sort of wok-hei-laden dish that draws queues at the 85 food centre.
The stall offers both the white (steamed, savoury) and black (sweet sauce) versions of fried carrot cake, each plate cubed and tossed with preserved radish, egg and garlic over high heat until fragrant and slightly crisp at the edges. It is the kind of no-frills hawker mastery that keeps locals returning and food bloggers writing.
The steamed carrot cake variant, softer and lighter, caters to those who prefer a gentler texture, while the fried versions deliver the caramelised crunch that chai tow kway enthusiasts chase. Portions come in small and large sizes, and the turnover is fast - the stall team works with the efficiency of long practice. Prices are in line with the rest of the food centre, making it an affordable way to enjoy one of Singapore's most beloved hawker dishes. Lao Chen Guo Dang fries up tradition on every plate. Visit Fengshan Centre and taste carrot cake done the old-school way - simple, satisfying and unmistakably local.
