Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Heng Carrot Cake & Oyster Omelette is a Newton hawker staple, known for its fried carrot cake and oyster omelette.

The carrot cake, available in black (with sweet dark soy sauce) or white, is praised for its varying textures – from soft, light chunks to smaller pieces well-coated with egg and seasoning.

The black version, with its caramelised char, is often highlighted as a must-try.

For spice lovers, sambal chili is available on the side.

The oyster omelette is noted for its crispy texture and generous, creamy oysters, with some reviewers appreciating the lack of excessive tapioca starch, which results in a cleaner, less gooey mouthfeel.

However, this crispier style might not appeal to all preferences for 'orh jian'.

Be prepared for significant wait times, especially during peak meal hours, which can stretch from 20 to 45 minutes.

We think it's worth the wait for the quality and consistency of the food, but plan your visit accordingly.

Best for those willing to queue for a well-executed hawker classic.

What customers say

Heng Carrot Cake & Oyster Omelette is highly praised for its consistently tasty fried carrot cake, available in both white and a highly recommended sweet dark soy sauce black version, with generous portions.

The oyster omelette is noted for its unique crispy, non-gooey texture, though this isn't to everyone's personal preference.

A significant recurring theme is the long waiting times, often 20-45 minutes, especially during peak hours, which customers generally deem worth it for the quality.

The oyster omelette is crisp, made with little to no tapioca starch, resulting in a clean, crispy egg texture without the usual gooey, chewy texture. It’s well done, though not quite my personal prefe…
