Heng Hua Kuih Goreng in Kuching: Tan's Heritage Fritters at BDC
-
At the foyer of Ban Hua Motor in BDC Commercial Centre, a small frying station turns a motorcycle-repair stop into a morning snack detour. Tan's Heng Hua kuih goreng comes from his grandmother's 70-year-old recipe, with vegetable, sweet potato and peanut fritters prepared fresh rather than pulled from a display case.
Source — DayakDailyThe setup is part of the story. Tan started operating here in December, with his brother's permission to use the shop frontage, and prepares the snacks by 7am. Customers waiting for motorcycle repairs can watch the frying, while anyone passing through BDC can pick up a small box for the road.
Source — DayakDailyThe four named options are Kuih Ubi Kacang, Kuih Ubi Manis, Kuih Sayur Kacang and Kuih Sayur. I would mix the peanut and vegetable versions first: the former gives the snack its nuttier character, while the latter keeps the crunchy fried texture but adds a savoury bite. The stall opens daily from 7am to 10am except public holidays, so this is a morning-only stop.
