Ayesha's Kitchen, Tung Ann Building

There's a row of food stalls along McCallum Street serving Indian, Malay and Chinese cuisine, i.e. local food. Here's where I'd go to for cheap hawker food for lunch. The downside is that it's completely open-air, so my shirt is usually soaked through with perspiration by the time I'm done with lunch. Ayesha's Kitchen is the stall at the end closest to Cecil Street, selling a mix of Indian and Malay food. In my view, this stall is the best of the lot.

The Prata ($1 each for plain) was very decent, light and fluffy, with a thin crispy crust and a slightly chewy texture. The accompanying chicken curry gravy was sufficiently spicy and thick.


The Ayam Soto with Rice Cakes ($3) and Begedel ($1) was also commendable, rice cakes were soft and clear, soup had depth and not too oily. My only grouse is the begedel, which was a tad tasteless, but nothing a dollop of freshly made sambal couldn't cure.

Thanks! It's one of the very few super cheap places to eat at around Shenton Way.
