Jia Cheng

Lor Mee ($3/$4):
Comes with braised egg, pork, wuxiang, and crispy deep fried yam bits (i think). Love the crunch of the yam bits and it goes well with all the other ingredients!

Decent at 3$ with crispy yam bits

My hunt for those under the radar, relatively unknown to many but still have their fair share of customers. We have seen many posts of the popular, well known hawkers, those with ridiculous long queues and waiting time. Does that mean the others are not just as good? 🔸🔸
I hit one of the oldest estate, Toa Payoh. Here the old and new embraces each other. This lormee stall located in Toa Payoh Central has been around as long as I can remember. A no fuss no muss bowl of lormee. Garnished with fishcakes, braised lean meat, half an egg and the crunchy bits. The gravy, if compared with other lormee stalls, is a lighter brown. It is gooey and slightly silky but not overstarched. But after awhile it turns a tad liquidy. Quite tasty actually. Request for more chilli as it packs a fiery punch. Topped with minced garlic, it just hits that sweet spot. I liked it!

This stall is tucked in a corner of the kopitiam. Just look out for the queue... yes... they do have a steady stream of customers.
