'Jemput-jemput (also called cekodok, cokodok, cucur kodok or cucur) is a traditional Malays fritter snack in Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore that is made from flour and then fried. It is usually round in shape and tends to vary in size. There are many varieties of this snack, some using banana, anchovies or prawns, onion or maize  Geylang Serai Market is one of the biggest and busiest wet markets in Singapore. Since 1964, this market has been a focal point for the local Malay community, with a good selection of Malay and Indian-Muslim specialties on offer.  Reopened in 2010, the new Geylang Serai Market has become brighter and cleaner but the atmosphere of the old traditional market is still maintained.  After renovation, this market is dressed in a cultural suit - a traditional Malay kampong house.  Either on weekday or weekend, it is always vibrant. Especially, middle-aged shoppers come here to do their daily shopping, plus flocks of young people come for good foods at weekends. The second floor of Geylang Serai Market is home to hundreds of food stalls with main focus on Malay and Indian cuisine. This is the best food court to enjoy Malay dishes such as asam pedas stingray (spicy stingray), beef rendang (spicy beef), ikan terubok (fried fish) and goreng pisang (banana fritters).  Nearest MRT station: Eunos MRT (EW7) (Walking 8 mins from Exit B)'
