Lovely version. Well deserving of their recognition
There's rlly no weakness, good wok hei w body and egginess. A little bit on the wet side
Could be way more generous w the lup Cheong tho, we only had 4 pieces
Short queue at 2pm
Meng kee char kway teow has been hyped up recently on social media, for being 1 of the best char kway teow in Singapore. Just YouTube search char kway teow.
It is really good, the lup cheong quantity is very generous, wok hei is evident and the entire plate felt eggy, just the way I like all my CKT.
When cravings hit hard, you gotta satisfy them. 🤪 As with every visit to Meng Kee Fried Kway Teow, they have been pretty spot on with the wok hei and portion of ingredients of the Char Kway Teow - there's no denying me from the pronounced sweet-savoury flavour in this sinful mess. I like that the noodles/kway tiao mix leans towards the wetter side and is not too oily. Every strand is evenly coated with an eggy aroma & medium brown hue of the dark soy sauce, but not to the point of being chao ta. I prefer my blood cockles/hums to be cooked a little longer, but I can still taste how fresh & plump they are.
Also, this should be enjoyed as piping hot as possible for the best flavour profile! That explains why I only took a few quick shots before chowing down the entire plate. 🤭
Each strand of yellow noodle and rice noodle was coated with the eggy aroma and soya sauce flavour, plus the addition of decent wok hei. Definitely would recommend this if you are around the area.

I didn't mean to eat this again, but it is what it is. It's better than I remember it. Wet and wok hei. The cockles super raw lol.
For those who like the dryer version of Char Kway Teow, this is one of the best in Singapore. The plate of CKT has got a lot of wok heat and the smokiness comes across immediately. I ordered the $4 portion and added $2 of cockles and $1 extra egg. Already has Chinese sausage and bean sprouts. No sliced fish cakes though.
On the menu is also cockles fried with bean sprouts. Must come back to try this.
