The owner of Cheng Kee stall has already retired but the legacy continue by his assistant and operating under Cowboy Beef Noodle new name now.
Went for the mixed version in dry, love the tender beef meats and parts. The dry version topped with generous lor gravy, accompanied with a small bowl of tasty beef soup.
At Kovan Coffee Shop
The dry version(does not look dry) comes with generous amount of gravy.
Quite long queue during lunch time.
Kway teow was silky smooth. Strong coriander taste. Beef tendon very soft and tender.
For well over a decade, this stall has been delighting with its soup rendition, even more so than its about-decent gravy.
.
The star is the robust soup / broth, rich with meaty sweet savoury herbal peppery spice flavour, without being overpowering. Best paired with the silky kway teow / wide flat rice noodles, which has a soft chew.
.
The beef cuts are rather small but well cooked and tender, while the tripe is properly spongy crunchy. The beef meat balls have a springy juicy chew, with meaty sweet savoury flavour.
.
Of note is their robust chinchalok / fermented shrimp paste, which lends a contrasting punchy sour salty shrimpy savoury flavour.

📍Cheng Kee Beef Kway Teow.
Hougang 203 Coffeeshop.
PRICE: $4
Dry version was already sold out when we visited at 2+pm on a Friday
NOTES:
I like the soup, not so much the chilli, beef balls and beef slices (too thick and chewy, not tender).
Prefer kuay teow to thick beehoon.
