Defu Lane's Fishball

I just got home from buying fishballs. Yup, not from the wet market or the hawker center but from Defu Lane! Its like an industrial place and this is a fishball production factory. Well not really factory as they use minimal machines, but its a monstrous fishball producing place. The place is not like those factories where everything seem in place, its more like a wet market where they make fishballs.

So this guy, Ah Liang, seems to be in charge of the place. He is quite an old man but still working hard everyday to make these fishballs and sell them to people like us or deliver to the shops that orders fishballs from him.

His fishballs are better than average. Not super fantastic but its fantastic. Try to imagine fried fishballs. Not too salty, not over fried. Inside, its soft and juicy and chewy. In Taiwan TV show it probably goes something like this:

"zhe li yu yuan nuan nuan Q Q de. Fei chang hao ci. Fei chang you kou gan!"

Yea, you get the picture. So where is this place, what are the charges like, what time do they open? Here are the details below:

Address: 121 Defu Lane 10
Person-In-Charge: Ah Liang
Hp: 96161885
Operating Hours: About 10am - 2.30pm ( They close early so call early for orders)

Thanks to my Shifu, Lee Cher, for the recommendation.
