what is a wua kuei? is it like chwee kuay? was it rice, yam or tapioca?
Its a bigger version of chwee key but its slightly harder. The simpler and cheaper version is to eat it with a brown sauce.
Passed by Lower Delta Road the other day and was glad to see that Block 48 is still there. My primary school (Delta Circus Primary School) is long gone. There used to a circle there (like the Newton circle) at the junction. There also used to be quite a lot of good food stalls there too. There were the wanton noodles, satay beehoon, fishball noodles, pau, satay.......just behind NTUC at Block 50 Havelock road. There was also a big wet market there where there are stalls in the market and in the open area behind it. I still remember the $0.30 plain LOR Mee with no ingredients, the animal shape 'Ji Dan Gao' (egg waffles) selling for $0.10 a piece. And then there was the chicken stall where they slaughter the chickens on the spot. I was fascinated by the barrel like 'de-feathering' machine where they put the chicken it and it came out 'naked'. My favorite stall was of cource the toy stall where i buy tikam and those made in china tin toys. Those who live in that area before will remember that bustling place.
