Top 3 Popular Stalls

Hua Xing Bak Kut Teh stall #01-171 is famous for their peppery Teochew style BKT but their regulars also come here for their excellent steam fish and asam fish.

Xing Yun Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice stall #01-202 serves succulent deboned poached chicken splashed with lots of savoury sweet aromatic sauce. Fans love them for their juicy flavourful almost soft chicken meat.

Lai Heng Handmade Teochew Kueh stall #01-218 make and steam / fry all their traditional kueh from scratch right there at the stall. They serve only 4 types of kueh - bang kuang, chive, cabbage and glutinous rice. Nice QQ skin, especially after light pan frying. The various fillings taste savoury sweet.

Other Popular Stalls

Zhen Vegetarian stall #01-195 is a popular choice of folks who want no meat meals at Yuhua Place. Zhen have interesting mock meat dishes like chicken rice, kway chap, bak kut teh, prawn noodle, mutton rendang, duck rice besides the usual vegetable based rice and bee hoon dishes. Zhen Vegetarian use no egg, milk, garlic or onion.

Poon Kee Wanton Noodle stall #01-200 appeals with their thin yet springy noodles which are enveloped in a tasty savoury spicy aromatic sauce. The char siew is lean and dry, the wantons are plump - overall they serve a likeable wanton mee that wins fans.

Lu Fang Zhou Pin stall #01-206 have their own loyal following for their comforting congee. They have a range of different ingredients - pork slices, liver, century egg, cuttlefish, fish slices, etc. No robust or assertive flavours but tasty enough, neither too thick nor thin - that's what keeps fans coming back to Lu Fang Zhou Pin. I appreciate it that Lu Fang still fry their own garlic and shallot.

Lai Lai U Mian stall #01-217 make their own noodles which are springy to the bite and enveloped with a flavourful savoury spicy, aromatic blended sauce. Topped with minced pork, fried anchovies, fried shallot, hard boiled egg and some greens. They also have chicken / minced pork and lala clam premium combo options at $4.

While in the Yuhua Place area, you might want to check out Joo Siah Bak Koot Teh which is in BLK 349, a coffee shop just beside the hawker centre (BLK 347). Joo Siah used to be a stall inside the hawker centre before they moved to their present location right next to its old address.

Still in the Yuhua Place vicinity at BLK 343 is Lee's Confectionary. Lee's serve French pastries and specialty coffee which are perfect after a nice meal at Yuhua Place hawker centre.

Yuhua Place Market & Hawker Centre is about 5 minutes walk from Chinese Garden MRT station. Almost the whole walk is under covered walkways, so it is very comfortable rain or shine.

Yuhua Place Market & Hawker Centre is sometimes confused with another hawker centre nearby, Yuhua Village Market & Food Centre (which also have its own popular food stalls). The two hawker centres are 10 minutes walk apart.

If you are coming here, remember it is Place not Village. Yeah, I made the mistake myself once before 😂 🤫
