Hokkien Mee

Fried Hokkien Mee ($3)

Nothing beats comfort food from the hawker centre! While this plate of hokkien mee isn't particularly outstanding, I would not hesitate ordering this again if I am at 7th Mile Bukit Timah Food Centre! Of the various editions of one of our most loved hawker fare, I love the kind that uses thick bee hoon and flat yellow noodles, fried full of wok-hei and is hovering somewhere between semi wet and not too dry so that I can savour the zhup as I slurp up the noodles because it is thick enough to stay coated on the noodles! Yum yum😋!

Hokkien Prawn Mee 福建蝦麵 - Small: $3 / Medium: $4 (pictured) / Large: $5

The noodles are not too wet nor goopy; & there is a slightly charred taste amongst the flavourful seafood-based broth it basks in. Pretty generous with the ingredients (although in terms of size, the ingredients are kind of small), & the chilli has a good kick (slightly sour) to it. I don't eat lard but I accidentally did here- I must say, it's hella crispy & flavourful; I'm sure this will tickle some of your fancy.

Will definitely return to 洋洲福建蘇東蝦麵 to order this again as it is affordable, filling, & this coffeeshop doesn't seem too crowded (maybe because the adjacent Beo Crescent market is currently under renovation so not many people come to this area anymore).

Ps: This stall isn't self-serviced, so you can wait in the comfort of your table for it to be delivered to you!

Geylang Lor 29 Fried Hokkien Mee @ Joo Chiat. I used to call this Fried Prawn Noodle Dry instead 😅 until recently I got to learn that Hokkien Mee are just so various from place to place. Be it Penang Hokkien Mee, KL Hokkien Mee or SG Hokkien Mee, they’re totally different in terms of the way of cooking, noodles, colors, textures and flavors. Penang Hokkien Mee (Penang Prawn Noodle) is still rank no.1 on my preferred list and I’m starting to appreciate SG Hokkien Mee better these days. I’d prefer a less soggy and dryer version of SG Fried Hokkien Mee. This wasn’t too bad, love to see the old uncles (seem to be regular customers) were also enjoying makan there. 🦐🦐

Join in the long queue and admire the plates of peeled prawns and squid stacked along the shelves, as they serve plates after plates of this sticky gooey Hokkien Noodles. One of the better ones, but I felt the chili was slightly too sweet for me. Oh, if you're a big eater I would recommend you get the $10 plate as servings are small.

served hot and bubbling in a claypot! the “zhup” was very flavourful and the noodles were really tasty. the deep fried pork belly was crisp on the outside and soft on the inside plus the fried pork lard gave the dish an extra “oomph”. our tummies were very satisfied!
