名厨车老板’s rendition of La La White Bee Hoon ($16, serves 2-3pax) is definitely a wetter version than many others. 😍😍😍 Served piping hot in a claypot, this bubbling bowl initially resembled beehoon soup, but later became less soupy after the beehoon has absorbed the essence of the broth. 🤤

Stoked to see so much clams - this is probably the white beehoon with the most generous amount of clams I’ve ever seen! ❤ Fresh with no fishy taste, these clams had a nice chewy texture! 👌🏻

Was envisioning a broth with natural sweetness & imparted by the clams but unfortunately, the intense wine & garlic flavours were so overwhelming that they overpowered the seafood goodness. 😔 While it was still decent & had a nice little spicy kick from the addition of chilli padi in the broth 👍🏻, I was just disappointed to be denied of that umami that I was looking forward to. My friends really liked it though!

While I think that there is room for improvement to be my ideal white beehoon, this should still be a hearty soupy eat especially on rainy days! 😋
