Tekka Market

Almost every weekend, we visit Tekka Market to purchase our weekly wet goods. While you can find almost anything and everything here, we normally limit our shopping list to certain things such as chicken, pork, vegetables, fruits, seafood, and eggs. For those who like beef and mutton, you can also find several beef and mutton stalls here.

Lee Chuan Seng Fishery (stall #01-16/17) sells most kind of seafood. Some claim that they have the best prawns in the market.

Tan Chee Boon Fruits (stall #01-191/192) sells all kinds of fruits. This stall carries everything from banana and apples to Japanese grapes, Taiwanese musk melons, and Korean strawberries .

I think the most famous stall (according to many blogs) in Tekka Centre is Chia’s Vegetables Supply (stall #01-201). They sell a wide range of vegetables from Asian to Western gourmet like fennel, zucchini, Brussels sprouts, matsusake mushrooms, baby spinach, as well as herbs like rosemary, basil, mint, thyme and others. You can easily spot the store as the stall owner likes to play jazz and bossa nova from a little stereo.
