Old Long House Popiah @ Lorong 7 Toa Payoh

I wondered if the old auntie who took my orders was having a bad morning as she was pulling a glum face. Fortunately, it was another auntie who was rolling the popiah, though each roll turned out smaller than expected. Nitty gritty issues aside, I must confessed that the rolls here are one of the better ones I've had.
I doubt it was because I ordered "加辣" as the rolls weren't very spicy. Yet the medley of juices from the braised turnips, sweet sauce and chilli made them extra flavorful. 

Although bits of soggy skin stuck to the plate, they were supple enough to hold the fillings, yet yielding moist and chewy bites. Gritty, juicy with tingling heat beneath the sweetness, each mouthful was a sensation.
