It has been ages since I dine at Lau Pasat. It used to be a favourite hide-out for my family for weekend dinners when it first retrofitted many moons ago. Then, the businesses started to decline and more stalls folded. As stalls closed, activity and variety of this preserved hawker centre also dwindled. Less variety led to less crowd. It became a vicious cycle, so we ceased to set patronise this hawker centre.
Recently, we passed by Lau Pasat again and was pleasantly surprised. It had undergone another renovation and new stalls were added (At least they looked new to me but I had no idea how long they had been there). This included my favourite 'Small bowl noodles' - dry noodles in a bowl and accompanied with a hot pot of minced meat, egg, crabstick and fishballs, shanghai dumpling (xiao long bao). It has even added in other cuisines, like Korean and Japanese food.
Every night, there would also be live band performing to the patrons which added entertainment to the dining experience. Wow, I never know Lau Pasat has evolved into such a happening place.
