Hock Lai Seng 福来成 (Maxwell Food Centre)

You know sometimes you just want to have a good bowl of noodles to get by your day? Hock Lai Seng's fishball noodle just hits the right spot.

Their $6 bowl of fishball noodles came with a variety of ingredients, from fishballs to meatballs and pork liver. Seeing how they cook, I knew they would do well and I added $1 for extra liver. True enough, their liver slices were very fresh and cooked just right. With a bouncy texture, there isn't much gamey flavour too. The rest of the ingredients were pretty standard and the soup tasted quite old school with a light meat broth.

The noodles were fantastic, with a springy texture and they were well drenched in a mixture of ketchup and their homemade chilli sauce. The savouriness of the chilli sauce shines through with deep umami and a slight kick. Very enjoyable.

Come and try if you're in Maxwell!

We ordered dry mee pok and mee Kia.
All of us like mee Kia more. The noodle springy , tossed in the sauce that balance between
sambal, vinegar, ketchup. Served with tasty soup full with ingredients like fishballs, sliced fishcakes, meatballs, prawns, pork and liver (surprisingly the liver is very decent , not hard, got bites and chewy texture)

💰$6 / per bowl
