This Hokkien mee is 70% yellow noodle (which I typically detest for its acidity), has thin bee hoon and is more of the dry kind of Hokkien mee.
The wokhei on this is C R A Z Y. Since the cook uses charcoal, the aroma wafted through the entire coffee shop and of course, was heavily present in the dish. He fried the noodles 3 separate times in order to create this rich and strong wok hei flavour and I really... admire him for all his efforts!
Apart from the wok hei, he was also v generous with the pork lard which wasn’t just sprinkled on top on the plate but cooked WITH the noodles. With every bite, there is that slight lardy fragrance which makes this 100x more delicious!
The seafood was tender, fresh and generous! He was not shy with the beansprouts either. The sambal was slightly sweet and super solid as well.
If you’re looking for Hokkien mee that will blow your socks off, please give this place a go!
This was a teeny tiny bowl of laksa and had only a few cockles in there (maybe 3?), was fresh tho. However, the small bowl didn’t come cheap. Taste was not bad! Quite rich and yet not jelak! I guess if you’re in the area, you can give it a shot? But I wouldn’t travel all the way for this.
This bowl of bcm right here packs a crazy punch! Super flavourful and filled with ingredients! Liver, seaweed, minced meat, pork slices, mushroom, fried fish, pork lard, YOU NAME IT! The soup is so rich and thick, it almost feels like I’m eating a bowl of ramen! The fish maw soup is also Super shiok! Not the cheap kind of fish maw! 10/10!!!!!!!!!!
