Avoid the first fish monger stall. It’s the largest fish monger there. Equally they are the most dishonest and expensive store. I wanted to buy a fish head but they insisted that I get a whole
Red garouper instead since it was fresh. They also told me that the clams was fresh from Malaysia. They did a big show of selecting the clams but when I got home, the clams were all rotten and smelt terrible. The fish was also equally bad and the flesh was not firm at all. The insides of the fish also smelt bad. Avoid!

Very nice laid-back hawker centre. The place is not crowded on a Friday morning, so the atmosphere is very pleasant. Many food stalls look good and seem like they are worth trying. There is a good variety of food sold here. The wet market next to the cooked food centre looked clean and the produce on sale look fresh.

Probably need to have renovation and upgrades. Next to Farrer Road MRT Circle line, but visitors footfall seems low, few stalls open for business at the food court .

there is quite a selection of good food there.

farrer road chicken rice is one good option, good taste and quite cheap.

another option is tien ji 油鸡 (soy sauce chicken) noodles, tasty noodles, tender and flavorful chicken and savoury broth.

This hawker centre is rather spacious but has not much good food to offer. Nonetheless, I have a few favourite stalls and they are:

1. 添乐 Tien Le, Hong Kong Soy Sauce Chicken (#01-70)
2. 阿婶阿嬷潮州粿 Kuehs and Snacks (#01-84)
3. Farrer You Tiao (#01-99)
4. 詠記麵家 Ah Wing's Wanton Mee (#01-108)

Hidden gem.
Got a few nasi padang stalls, chicken rice stalls. All pretty decent.
There s a corner hand made fish balls noodles which has a long queue. Friend tried it, gave 4stars.

Newly opened fried/braised prawn noodle facing the playground and ATM definitely worth a 4 stars !!! "Hill Top"(山鼎福建面) is their name and prawn noodle is their game ! Closed on Monday. Sold out daily by 2 plus ! Come early to avoid disappointment !
Reopens as owner got himself injured due to an accident.

The Hawker centre is huge and airy but some shops were closed when I visited on Sat afternoon and even more stalls were closed when I revisited on a Sunday afternoon. The duck stew and cai Peng were tasty and delicious although they cost $6+ each.

Not to be confused with Empress Place, which is in town. Empress Road is off Farrer Road. I call it the "Royalty area", as the roads there include such names as King's Road, and Duchess Road...
The Empress Market is an average size market and hawker centre serving average food. It sports several nice murals on some walls. The good thing about the place is that it's got very high ceilings so it's airy and cool; and it's not too crowded, even when I was there on Sunday morning.
Food wise, nothing stands out, although the wanton noodles did have a rather long queue. My personal favourite is the Kopi tarik which is one of the nicest ones I've had.

A medium size hawker with wet market in the same location.

Loved the variety of food stalls in this compact hawker - muslim, bbq, noodle/rice, drink stalls, pastries, etc. My favorite includes the pork rib soups, ice cendol, you tiao, and the Indonesian food stalls - and still need to try other stalls. Prices seems to be reasonable.

Also checked out nearby bakery, frozen meat/seafood, fruit stalls, and recently open coffee shop - Croco.

It's close by from Farrer Rd MRT and right next door to the D'Leedon complex.

Airy, well ventilated, bright. Lots of walking space. Bought kueh at this kueh shop #01-84. Ang Ku Kueh for $1.10 each. All assortments of kueh!

Visited Empress Market for the first time. Prata was nice. There are interesting stalls here. We also bought 肉干, made from minced meat so it's not too hard for kids and old folks. Oh! And the freshly made doughnuts, simply coated with icing sugar.

I'll have to come again to try the others. The 药材鱼汤 caught my attention. And it says fried fish is 现炸现卖.

Here are some photos of stalls available here at 9am. Noticed many stalls not opened yet. Probably they would open later.
