Part 5/10:
Close by, the Tangling Hulk Market and Food Centre are renowned for their iconic stalls—some among Singapore’s oldest and most beloved. Mr. Ting’s peanut pancakes, established in 1965, are legendary for their dense, chewy texture and heritage status, but the stall’s future is uncertain as the estate is being demolished.
Other stalwarts include Madame Ning's braised duck noodles, in operation since 1969, and Ganjui Chai's famous laksa. Leslie explores these food treasures—not just for their flavors but for their symbolic importance in Singapore’s culinary heritage. Each stall, each dish, is a chapter in the story of a community that cherished food as cultural identity.
