This stall is all about traditional Teochew dishes like fish soup, bitter gourd omelette, and braised pig trotters.
The Chilled Pig Trotter’s Jelly is one of their most popular dishes as it’s pretty hard to find these days. Jellied trotters are not hard to make but more time-consuming as they are usually slow-cooked for half a day before being chilled for another full day.
Chilled Pig Trotter’s Jelly
For $6, you get a big serving of cold jelly slabs, brimming with savoury bits of pork meat and chopped trotters and garnished with a healthy helping of coriander. The clear jelly is made with the boiled broth and gelatin, and is full of collagen. Dip the trotters in chilli sauce, which is on the sour and tangy side and takes the meaty edge off the dish. Jellied pig trotters are usually eaten as a snack or an appetiser.
If you like clear soups, their fish soup at Xing Fu Chao Zhou Xiao Shi is worth a try. Made in traditional Teochew-style, the savoury fish soup has a refreshingly sour taste from the bitter gourd and is on the blander side. The slices of fish are tender and fresh, with none of that rubbery texture from frozen fish. Slices of bitter gourd, tomatoes, and tofu chunks floating in the soup make for a full and comforting meal.
A bowl of fish soup is $5, with the option to add thick white bee hoon or rice. I opted to just have the soup, and was pleased to notice that they added more fish. They also have a fish maw soup version, with fish maw and fishballs instead.
