The couple, who used to work in ad production, visited the hubby’s native Guangzhou to master the art of ‘original’ Cantonese-style rice rolls.
, the capital of Guangdong Province in China? The cuisine then made its way to Hong Kong, and the rest is history. Looking to bring a taste of ‘original’who opened King Of Cheong Fun in a Bedok North kopitiam in September. The couple met as colleagues at an advertising production company in Bedok.
However, they were blessed that the last chef they met truly poured his heart into teaching them over the span of over two weeks. From letting them bring in their own weighing scale to measure the recipe, to showing them how to prepare the dish, he even let them make the rice rolls and serve customers independently. “His view was that we needed to know the whole process, not just learn the recipe, in order to run a business successfully.
The couple, who quit their jobs to chase their hawkerpreneur dream, says the hardest part of this career change is the sheer physical exhaustion. They were surviving on two hours of sleep when they first started. “We didn’t dare ride our motorbike to work because we were afraid we’d doze off,” recalls Susxin, who is thankful that they have since attracted a regular breakfast and lunch crowd.
They also offer a small selection of dim sum, priced between $3 to $3.50. The hawker makes his own steamed pork rib with black bean sauce, steamed chicken feet and fried radish cake, supplemented by supplier-bought har kow, siew mai, char siew bao, salted egg custard bao and lor mai gai.One of the best prawn cheong fun we’ve tried. The fresh medium-sized prawns are sweet, bouncy and steamed just right. We counted eight on our plate – one for every mouthful of rice roll.
If you like the egg-pork-lettuce combo, you can also try the healthy Steamed Bee Hoon instead of cheong fun. A thick translucent beehoon that looks like cellophane noodles is steamed along with lettuce, a pork patty and egg, before being drizzled over with the same sauce. It offers more carbs if you need a more filling meal but still want to eat clean. But we prefer the cheong fun.
