Operating since 1968, this stall draws a queue of up to 45 minutes during lunch.
.
Their rendition is 'wet', with a rich robust prawn and pork stock gravy, along with egg, that infuses the yellow egg noodles and rice vermicelli noodles, soft and slippery with savoury sweet salty eggy flavour.
.
The crisp bean sprouts lend contrasting texture and vegetal sweet notes, while tender deshelled shrimp and springy squid lend sweet savoury flavour.
.
Small bits of crunchy pork lard burst with savoury salty notes, and the drizzle of lime juice lends zesty tangy sour flavour. Less wok hei / breath of the wok comparatively though.

Imho. Stock is awesome flavorful. I do miss when they used to serve them on opeh leaves!
For the Hokkien Mee connoisseurs out there, you would know that we can broadly categorise them into either dry, or wet Hokkien Mee. As a fan of the saucey goodness, I was delighted to find that Come Daily serves them wet! A piping hot plate of mee ($5) with sufficient moisture probably due to the steaming of the noodles, that made it so soft such that it almost melts in your mouth.

So many good reviews on this place, thus decided to try it.
Was expecting a long wait and queue, but was surprisingly able to get my plate within 15mins on a Sunday morning.
This was certainly a great plate of hokkien mee, but my expectation was much more higher, after reading and watching so many fantastic reviews.
Still a great plate thou, sambal chilli was quite good, noodles was quite silky.
The hokkien mee when reached our estate, still wet and warm.the seller pack separate chilli and lime for us too.
First, I was worried it will be dry, because we placed order for 100 packs, but it's not.
So highly recommended.
You can Place order by call this number +65 9671, 7071 and the delivery fee is $10..

The lard was super crispy and the hokkien mee is the wet version where you can taste the fragrant broth. 🤩🤩👏🏻 The wok hei taste not as strong as Swee guan HKM but nonetheless still a good plate! 🤤🤤

The highlight was in the stock that flooded the plate, encasing a richness comparable with the best prawn mee broths, with each strand of noodle trapping a hefty amount of robust flavours within; the chili and pork lard also helped to add layers.

However, wok hei was noticably weak — a shame for those who find it a crucial element for hokkien mee.
Really nice hokkien mee, probably one of the top ten in SG. But I'm not going to travel to toa payoh just for this.. I'd do so for Swee Guan (lor 29), but unfortunately not for this.
Stock was flavourful, both porky & prawny, and has a good balance between the two. Hokkien mee was still quite when served, something that I prefer too. Portions are actually quite reasonable for the price. I think the only missing is the overpowering [charcoal] wok hei (something that makes Swee Guan's stand out the most)..
One of the most famous Hokkien in Singapore, this is the wetter version that came with good flavour of crustacean and some porkiness in the stock. The stock is wet but not watery, but thick.
🔸
What I'm puzzled with is how sweet the stock is, which makes me think that perhaps quite a bit of sugar is added. I also prefer my noodles to come with some wok hei, even if it's the wet version.

Ordered the $5 dollar portion. I like how the hokkien mee belongs to the wet side and the broth is a little sticky. I enjoyed this meal but I would still prefer Eng Ho's version as the broth is more thick and there is a little more wok hei. However if I am in the area, I would definitely eat this hokkien mee as I am a hokkien mee fan after all! A 4/5 rating!
The Food
I ordered a plate of Hokkien Mee served with fresh prawns, sotong, bean sprouts and eggs for S$8.00 and this portion is enough for 2 to 3 persons servings. The Hokkien Mee is awesome as the noodles and bee hoon have absorbed the goodness and essence of the broth. The lard that was added into the Hokkien Mee makes it very fragrant and the small cubes of lard is so crispy that it just explodes in my mouth with a loud crunchy sound.
The Price
Reasonably priced at $8 with huge portion
Overall
I will definitely come back again and highly recommended to try this!

The famous Hokkien Prawn Mee in Toa Payoh Lorong 1 Market. What we saw on the plain flat plate of noodle was the result of decades of Hardwork. .

The stall owners wake up in 4 in the morning and start boiling the stock. For a good plate of hokkien Mee, the cook need to fry the minced garlic with lard then stir fried the egg and noodles. While the wok hei was formed, the stock would be rush in to bind all the flavors together.
Waited for at least 30min for my plate of prawn mee... Although stock is tasty, feel that it's less tasty than the one at Kim Keat..
$10 hokkien mee with fragrant lard. Slurped it down in 5 mins! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 #burpple
Different place and stall will have their own version of hokkien mee. Each has their own distinguished flavour, wetness and wok smell. This one is my fave! Just nice amount of serving, neither too wet nor dry, peeled prawns and crunchy lard😍! But be prepared to wait for 30 mins 😒
