Eating at this unassuming prawn mee stall in Geylang Bahru Market and Food Centre is the kind of experience that will leave a lasting impression on you and your friends. The signboard only speaks of prawn mee and pig innards soup, but you should look for the owner, Richard, and ask for the Prawn and Seafood Hot Pot ($50 for two pax, $60 for four and $80 for six). Like most hawker centres, the seats here are fixed so its best to occupy a table for four, and you can share one pot ($60) comfortably. Expect fresh prawns, clams, pig intestines, pig tails, pork ribs and crabs bubbling away in a naturally sweetened prawn broth. The best part is β Richard allows you to bring your own vegetables! Add cabbage and mushrooms to the mix, and if you like, he recommends shabu meat to swish in the broth. The service is impeccable and there's free flow of soup and carbs for the ravenous β choose from white rice, yellow noodles, bee hoon or kway teow. β¨It can get really warm eating this in a hawker centre, but it's truly well worth the sweat.
Avg Price: $15 per person
