if you're not a fan of soupy stuff like the lor mee, I suggest you go for either the xing hua thick bee hoon or xing hua bee hoon instead. while the difference only appears to be the type of bee hoon used, the xing hua bee hoon is actually really different from the xing hua thick bee hoon. the thick bee hoon version of the dish is definitely wetter, with a gravy that feels like a concentrated version of the soup used for the lor mee. my personal preference would be that of the xing hua thick bee hoon, it kinda feels like ordering hokkien prawn noodles without the yellow noodles. on the other hand, the thin bee hoon version will taste exactly the same as what you can find at putien with the exception of its price and the generosity of ingredients provided by uncle.
