3. Char Kway Teow (Stir-Fried Noodles)
Flat rice noodles stir-fried in dark soy sauce with prawns, cockles, Chinese sausage, bean sprouts, and egg .
Look for the smoky “wok hei” flavor .

Hawker Centers are best for authentic and cheap food.
· Sambal is the signature chili paste—it can be very spicy, but adds authentic flavor.
· Durian (the “king of fruits”) is famous for its strong smell and creamy texture—a love-it-or-hate-it experience .
· For Indian-Malay food, look for “Mamak” shops (often open 24/7
