Hit Tekka Centre's wet market during early morning hours for the best selection and prices. The fish is still fresh, vegetables are crisp, and vendors are willing to negotiate. Later in the day everything starts deteriorating and prices stay fixed.

Ground floor has the wet market, hawker centre with various opening times. Perfect combo - buy fresh fruit downstairs then head up for breakfast. The Indian vendors know their spices and will explain what each one does if you ask nicely. Bring cash and a reusable bag — They appreciate customers who come prepared.
