My opinion: 

This was one of a very few cheap but disastrous food adventures that I ever had in Bedok. I was seduced into buying their chwee kuehs by a cheap price tag (8 chwee kuehs for around $2.30) and a small queue.

The chwee kuehs were the worst that I had ever tasted in Singapore. The kuehs were bland, overcooked and had a slight pungent taste. My mother was a chwee kueh lover and her opinion was that they put too much water in the food production. Their cai pok was an ultimate "food apocalypse". It tasted sweet and was not salty at all. I really felt like vomiting out the food after a few spoonfuls. The hot and sticky chili could have saved them from a terrible rating but the portions were too miserly.

Ways for the owners to improve their food ratings:

Reduce the amount of water in the chwee kuehs' cooking process, make the cai pok saltier and add more chili.
