My opinion:

Chang Cheng means "great wall" in Chinese. This stall sells traditional Singapore curry chicken noodles, pork rib noodles and prawn noodles. I have tried their curry chicken bee hoon noodles for lunch. There were 3 pieces of chicken meat, 8 pieces of tau pok, 1 piece of potato and small amount of bee hoon noodles in my food portion.

All the food items were small sized or too little to satisfy the hunger of a teenager. Although chicken pieces were soft, tender and came with silky skin, they also had a mild pungent meat taste. Curry was a bit watery and not fragrant enough.

In a nutshell, the food here was average tasting and severely lacking in essential ingredients. Unless you are a hardcore curry chicken noodles fan, I will strongly advise you to give this stall a miss.

Ways for the owners to improve their food ratings:

First, they should add at least 3 pieces of chicken meat and 3 pieces of potato to their food. Second, they must review the curry's preparation and production processes.
