The late Mr Yeo took a backseat from cooking the fish soup, but continued to work at the stall which operates five days a week. He would take orders and help with the cutting and slicing of the batang fish, handling up to 50kg of fish a day.
In July 2022, Mr Yeo introduced a new item to the menu, handmade meatballs, which proved popular with customers. Despite having high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol, he continued to indulge in his favourite foods such as Teochew braised duck rice, fishball noodles and ngoh hiang. Ms Yian Tay, a regular customer who was at the stall for dinner at 5pm that day, says: “When he is not busy, he always has a smile for customers. He is very meticulous about his food preparation and I often see him cutting up the fish.”
