Hong Lim Market and Food Centre
The Chicken Chop with Laksa Spaghetti ($8.50) is delicious. The laksa sauce might be a little salty for some but I find it rich and flavourful and it goes well with the al dente spaghetti. The chicken chop is tender and juicy with a little smokey char on top. Finally, a sprinkle of hae bee hiam elevates the umami of the whole dish - love it!
I have read many good reviews about Belly Lucky Noodle, which serves a āzhnged-upā version of kolo mee at Hong Lim Market and Food Centre (#02-25).
Finally had the chance to try their Handmade Sarawak Kolo Mee ($5), which consists of springy handmade egg noodles, minced meat, prawn dumplings, char siew and lava egg. The noodles have a good bite and it is tossed in a sweet and savoury sauce that has a spicy kick from the surprisingly potent chilli sauce.
The char siew is made from a specific cut of pork called äøč§å¤© that has a good balance of fats and meat, and it is smokey and tender. The prawn dumplings contain a generous amount of minced pork, prawn, mushroom and water chestnut filling. Along with the gooey lava egg, flavourful braised minced meat and a dash of lard cubes, this is one premium bowl of kolo mee that is satisfying, delicious and value-for-money.
I simply adore the chicken curry noodles ($5/6/7) from Ah Heng Chicken Curry Bee Hoon Mee at Hong Lim Market and Food Centre (#02-58). The curry is rich, flavourful and aromatic, but somehow it is also light, smooth and not too jelak. The soft tau pok, potato and springy bee hoon mee soak up all that goodness effortlessly. The chicken is tender and moist, and it goes well with the fragrant fried chilli that is served on the side. So comforting and slurp-worthy!
