All-time favourite Prawn Mee in Serangoon North, where it was totally well-received by the residents and also people that come from nearby estate.
Even for take-away, the fragrance of the piping-hot broth can be smell while you are on the way back to enjoy. Rich broth, that takes them to double-boiled with prawn heads and pork ribs from as early as 4am, was sweet and goes well with the noodle.
Portion was generous and you can opt for all-prawn rather than mixture of prawn and sliced meat.
Price: $3.50 for Normal serving, + $0.20 for take-away
Always love Claypot delicacies, and this one failed to surprise me. The way the noodles were cooked in the broth, was sort of over-rated as it seems not much different as its usual Hokkien Mee.
The ingredients that comes with the Claypot was generous and the portion for 2 pax was sufficient for 3 pax actually.
The roasted pork was hard, rather than crispy. The broth was not very strong, leaving a bland taste for the dish.
With comparison, the non-claypot version will be a much better choice.
Price:- $10 (For 2 pax)
Attracted by the concept of shaking mee, I opt for the Kolo Mee with Black Sauce (Dark Soy Sauce).
There are 4 different sauces available:-
☑️ White (Traditional)
☑️ Black (Dark Soya Sauce)
☑️ Mix (Dark Soy Sauce w Chilli Sauce)
☑️ Red (Chilli Sauce)
The dish comes with fried wanton, Kai lan, Char Siew and Marinated Minced Meat. Coupled with flavorful cabbage soup, the handmade noodle was springy and goes well with the sauces.
The char Siew was perfect and the portion was reasonable for a normal size at $6.

For White Beehoon, the broth will always be the highlight of the dish. The broth for the La La Sliced Fish White Beehoon was not flavorful, even though there was slight sweetness.
Apart from the broth, the portion given was acceptable for a fair share of $5. However, I would not opt to head back for a second try.
