Perfect kind of hkm - i like this type with wet umamish soupy kind. Full of flavor.
Ordered the $4 and the plate of pipping hot hokkien mee came in less than 5mins.
Worth the trip to go Beach road just for a plate of hkm by this friendly uncle.
Always a must eat whenever around

Char Kway Teow ($4)
.
Back at Heji located in a coffeshop along Beach Road to try their char kway teow after I was suitably impressed with their fried hokkien mee. Wow, again smitten by their plate of char kway teow which was just full of wok-hei and the right amount of seasoning. The plate came with cockles, sliced fishcake, some vegetables and chinese sausage slices. They could be a tad more generous on the ingredients but overall, this plate of CKT is definitely worth salivating over and worth the calories!
Hokkien Mee ($4)
.
Was supposed to try the famed Fatty Thai wonton noodles along Beach Road but sadly the stall was closed for renovations. Thankfully, the other stalls located within the coffeeshop were open and each with its own fans dining to the tune of duck rice, claypot rice and hokkien mee/ char kway teow. I decided to try the hokkien mee at He Ji. The smallest $4 portion is sizeable and I love the yellow noodle to thin bee hoon ratio very much. There was just enough chup so that it does not clump up and the sambal chilli packed good heat that paired really well with the noodles. I would rival this plate of goodness to other more famous hokkien mee stalls in town! Definitely want to go back and try their carrot cake and char kway teow. The CKT in particular appeared on many tables when I went there for lunch!
