The stall has a very rich history and was set up by a lady called Wong Len Chen in 1966 at 36 Temple Street. In 1984, the hawker stalls at temple street were moved over to Chinatown Complex Food Centre and 115 Tang Shui was one of the stalls included in this move. The brand has been around for decades, and they take pride in their traditional Chinese desserts that have been in the family for years. Up till today, they still use the same recipes that they have been using over 50 years ago and you can taste the heritage in every bowl of dessert. Now, the shop is owned by Wong Len Chen’s son, Toh Hoi Yip, who has been running it with his wife for over 20 years. They use all-natural ingredients in their food with no preservatives, to ensure that their customers only get the best desserts available.
I tried their famous bo bo cha cha ($1.90) which is only available on Fridays and Saturdays. The small bowl came with sweet potatoes, yam and tapioca flour that is doused in a creamy and sweet serving of coconut milk. I am admittedly not a fan of yam and sweet potatoes as I find them too starchy, but the ones here were so fresh that I didn’t mind it. The chewiness of the tapioca flour balls also added a nice texture to the dessert. Despite using a generous amount of coconut milk, the gravy was not too overly sweet and it did not get too cloying even after I polished off the whole bowl. It is rare to find such old school desserts in Singapore, and 115 Tang Shui does an excellent job in portraying these traditional desserts.
