My opinion:

Wei Tong means "maintaining smooth passage" in Chinese. This hawker stall specializes in traditional Singapore fried food. For this food review, my mother and I have tried their white fried carrot cake for lunch.

Their carrot cake was not fragrant or thoroughly fried. The small amount of cai pok did not mix well with the other ingredients and make the food bitter tasting.

To sum up, the food here was cheap, fulfilling but had a few small flaws that prevented us from visiting them in the near future. Unless you are a fried food fan living or working near Chinatown, our advice is to ignore this stall and visit other alternatives in nearby coffee shops or hawker centres. 

Ways for the owners to improve their food ratings:

First, check the cause of the food's bitter taste. If cai pok is the main "culprit", remove it and use more egg ingredients as substitutes. Second, fry the food for a longer duration.
