Some years ago before Blk 22 Hawker Centre at Toa Payoh Lor 7 undergone upgrading, I had patronised this fish soup stall named "Da Xi" (Literally means Big Slim). Even though I visited this Hawker Centre often, today is the first time after many years (probably 8 to 10 years) that I eat at the same stall.
The fish soup with bee hoon costs $3.50 today. Even though the soup base was not as tasty as many other fish soups, the fish serving was considerably large in considerating the cost. It was still served by the same owner after all these years. A proof that hawker centres create long lasting job and they allow food to be afordable. An air-con coffee shop would have the same dish at $4.50 perhaps with a lesser serving.
The stall owner still could remember me and gave me two cubes of azar pineapple.
