Each Foochow oyster cake (S$2) — the sole delicacy on offer at this stall — is filled by hand before being draped in batter and deposited in the deep fryer. Presumably, then, one might request a bespoke model free of shrimp, minced pork, even oysters. Here, though, is an instance where you'd be well-served to buy one off the rack, tailoring only the chilli sauce to your own specifications.
