Lao San Kway Chap 老三棵汁·猪什汤 (Ang Mo Kio)

Lao San Kway Chap 老三棵汁·猪什汤  is a Kway Chap stall located at a coffeeshop at Blk 232 Ang Mo Kio Ave 3. In case you are wondering why the address seems to be familiar, it is because this is the same block as where Melben Seafood is located. 
Lao San Kway Chap has been highly raved about by many through word of mouth and on the internet. There was a queue of 7 person on a Sunday morning.
Unfortunately, the large intestines were already sold out. So fast! Considering that I visited at 915 am.
I ordered a bowl of Kway and also a plate of braised pig intestines (small), pig skin, fish cakes and tau pok (fried tofu).
Kway - flat, broad rice sheets
The bowl of Kway was just average. The flat and broad rice sheets were soft, smooth and of the right thickness. However, I felt that the broth was not flavourful enough and was diulted.

I ordered a plate of braised pig intestines (small), pig skin, fish cakes and tau pok (fried tofu). The sweet and savoury braising sauce was excellent. The burst of sauce from the tau pok which absorbed the braising sauce made it so addictive. The braised pig intestines (small), one of my favourite item was disappointing. It was washed clean but tasted rubbery.

I do not understand why Lao San Kway Chap 老三棵汁·猪什汤  has been so highly raved about. My personal thoughts are that it was just an average kway chap stall.

  1. I love the gadgets (as I say in my own term) or the inner parts, cooked in the dark sauce. Its really tempting. Because my other half does not eat pork, I only try when I am out with my friends.

    1. The big intestines was sold out when I got there. I am not a huge fan of pork belly hence did not order that

  5. I'm a fan of kway chap too, but chilli has to be good. Hubby loves the intestines but not me. Too bad it's not up to your expectation, else I would give it a try since it's at AMK.
