My sentimental favorite.  I stopped here thirty minutes after landing on the way to the hostel and went straight to Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee...and then a few other stalls.  On return trips this has been the closest Hawker Center to my accommodation and thus the most frequently visited.  The stalls offer mainly Chinese cuisine with a few offer more variety.  It's not just my opinion on the greatness of this hawker center, many others rank it highly in hawker center ratings.  It's a popular place, with a local skewing crowd.  It's within walking distance of the Geylang area or within a minutes walk from either the Dakota or Montbatten SMRT stations.
ALBERT ST. PRAWN NOODLE - 01-10
A perennial favorite with a guaranteed line and wait - unless you arrive in the early evening.  The stall offers about ten different variations on the standard prawn noodle meal which can be ordered wet, like a soup, or dry.  I do what everyone else does and order the wet version of the original - costs $5 SGD.
NAM SING HOKKIEN FRIED MEE - 01-31
The signature Hokkien Fried Mee (egg and rice noodles stir fried with egg, shrimp, and squid) comes in the $4/6/8 sizes.  An important note, once Nam Sing runs out of their daily supply of noodles the stall shuts down - which means it's usually closed by dinner time.
LAO FU ZI FRIED KWAY TEO - 01-17
Two varieties: white or black (with soy sauce added).  Like everything else at the food stalls, the noodles are cooked fresh once the order is placed.  As good a place as any to try Char Kway Teo, one of Singapore's national dishes.  Quality can vary but I think it's usually better than the more renowned Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee place above.
SPRING ROLL PLACE - 01-94
I'm not sure what the Chinese characters translate to in English but this stall is on the road side of the hawker center.  This stall prepares several spring roll varieties and I usually make a side order after my meal here.  The Kueh Pie Ti, a Pernakan cuisine item, also goes by the name "Top Hat" in Malaysia.  The crusty flour shell is filled with Chinese turnips and carrots and a few condiments on the top give the bite size rolls a sweet taste.
CARROT CAKE  STALL - 01-26
No hawker center dining is complete without placing a side order for carrot cake.  The name is curiously misleading as no carrots are involved and the end product looks nothing like a cake.  Instead its a white radish omelet with a few other spices tossed in.
WESTERN BARBEQUE - 01-53
This stall offers a variety of Western "Grill" type dishes, most in the $6 range with a $9 steak being the highest price item.  I ordered two pork chops were good enough to order again.  The crinkle cut fries and baked beans, that I was really looking forward to, did not have the same taste quality at the pork chops.
PASTA RISOTTO 01-09
I ordered the seafood risotto and it was an interesting dish - more of a rice, with shrimp and squid, and tomato sauce meal vs. risotto. The rice was missing the cheese component tap hat I like in risotto. Not a bad meal just not quite risotto.
TOA PAYOH ROJAK 01-108
My first foray into Rojak. This place has received a Makansutra award for their Rojak dish. I didn't quite know what to make of the meal. It was half-way very good but a strange mixture of ingredients, sauces, and vegetables.
DAKOTA CRESCENT
A meal at Old Airport Road should also include a visit to Dakota Crescent, one of Singapore's original public housing estates completed in 1958.  A few of the original buildings still remain and have not received any major facelifts.  Tee Kian & Co. is a coffee / bar / cafe that occupies the site of a former vendor.  The housing estates are literally across the road from the hawker center.  With your back to the hawker center, a large and new school is on the left and the older public housing estates are on the right.  Tee Kian & Co. is along Dakota Crescent Road away from the school.
