Michelin Bib Gourmand rojak stall at Whampoa Makan Place, founded as a pushcart in Toa Payoh.
Balestier Road Hoover Rojak is a Michelin Bib Gourmand rojak stall at Whampoa Makan Place, with roots tracing to a pushcart started by Mr Lim Ngak Chew in Toa Payoh. The rojak combines cucumber, pineapple, turnip, you tiao, and bean sprouts, all tossed in a sticky, fermented prawn paste and topped with crushed peanuts. A portion costs $4, keeping the dish accessible. The stall has since relocated to Whampoa but retains the same recipe and generous hand that earned it Michelin recognition. Balestier Road Hoover Rojak is a testament to the enduring appeal of a well-made, humble hawker classic.Based on 195 Google reviews

This is the legit best rojak I've tasted, going all the way back to my teenage years. This is not hyperbolic speaking, this is legit! I've waited for months to try his rojak, because every time I want to eat it, the queue is too long.

Packed the gravy separately. Bought at lunchtime, ate at dinner, was still fabulous! Slightly different taste from normal rojak. Refreshing. Can't wait to eat again!
