Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take on 786 Char Kway Teow is that it offers a commendable halal version of the classic dish.

We note that the $4.50 small plate is often cited as a good starting point, though many find the $5.50 or $6.50 options more satisfying, especially with an extra $2 for cockles.

Reviewers consistently praise the fresh cockles and the distinct wok hei aroma.

The spice level, particularly with chili padi, is described as moderate, adding a good kick without overwhelming the dish.

While the absence of pork lard and lap cheong is a common point of discussion, most agree that the stall manages to deliver a flavorful and authentic experience despite these omissions.

The char kway teow is frequently highlighted for not being overly oily, which is a significant plus.

We think this is a solid option for those seeking a halal char kway teow that doesn't compromise on taste.

Worth the wait if you're in the area and craving a well-executed, non-oily plate.

What customers say

786 Char Kway Teow receives largely positive feedback for its authentic, old-school taste and fresh cockles, despite being halal and thus lacking traditional pork lard and lap cheong.

Customers appreciate the balanced sweet and spicy flavors, wok hei aroma, and non-oily preparation.

While the absence of pork elements is noted, many find the dish surprisingly delicious and worth the wait, though some suggest ordering a larger size for a more filling meal.

Got the $4.50 plate, which was 75% filling so most people should be satisfied with the $5.50 one. The chilli is pretty moderate but if you don't eat spicy at all it may be a little too much for you to…
