Other Regional SEA Noodles

Not enough wok hei, not enough flavour. Almost an insult, really. To add on to it all the staff seemed so disinterested. Maybe it's because this mall, if we can even call it that, is so sleepy and boring....
Anyone knows where to get good and legit Penang char kway teow in Singapore?

Very affordable meals and really good taste! I had the seafood mee goreng that time around. The noodles were slightly wet with tasty gravy. Most of all, the fact that they had been around for more than a decade is a testament to their excellent food even if they're located kinda hidden in a non-descript shopping centre. Highly recommended!

Thick noodles coated with tasty fragrant oil! (They call it original Kampua style, which is where they originated from) Similar to kolo mee style however these noodles are straighter and thicker. They also had other base sauces, even the oh-so-hip mala, but I really like the original so I didn't bother trying the others. Also true to its name, the noodles really had the "qq" chewy texture that was so pleasant. Besides this "traditional" noodle bowl they also had many other things on their menu, even fried noodles and claypot noodles. This might just have become my favourite noodle house on the block!

This restaurant along Joo Chiat road has been a fixture for a long time and that's how you know how good it is! The bihon (rice noodles akin to vermicelli) was chewy and smooth. It was stir fried nicely with the pork and vegetables. Simple but fulfilling!

I have been coming here for maybe a decade and they're generally always good. The curly noodles were coated well with fragrant oil and the minced meat topping lent a bit of sweetness that elevated the savoury base. Aside from that there were char siew, prawns, and wantons. All really good. Anoth special thing about this place is their thick chunky chilli paste. They're not too spicy but has great taste.
I recommend to order dry wanton (not boiled, not fried, but tossed in oil and topped with shallots) as side dish to share. Yum!
I have come here so many times over the years and I will continue to do so!

That time around though I decided to try out their stir fry dish. And I decided on yellow noodles stir fry (they had other noodle options too).
I think it was executed well. I was a bit worried that it'd be a little bland but that was unfounded. It was evenly spiced and not too greasy. The beef was tender and not too chewy. Overall a good alternative to the usual order.

What I always enjoy from any kolo mee bowl is how the noodles look white and plain but are actually full with flavours and fragrance. This one was no different, tasty sauce and minced meat, and good char siew too.
I just found it weird though that they didn't give / put any chilli paste. They only gave pickled chilli which admittedly was actually hotter than the usual pickled chilli at other stalls. Maybe it's just their style... Who knows.

Eating at this place felt like coming to a relative's house and served a home-cooked meal.
I had a mee siam. This was more a nyonya/peranakan style rather than malay style though honestly I don't know much about the difference. Is "comforting" a taste? Coz that's what I tasted. They were not heavy on anything, everything was just perfectly balanced. Slightly sour, slightly sweet, and very refreshing with a touch of lime. The chilli was very good and punchy too. Vermicelli was not too soft and soaked up the gravy well.
Overall I had a nice satisfying breakfast and felt like I was home.

And of course what else would I have if not noodles?? This was bun thit nuong (please forgive my misspellings!), vermicelli noodles with grilled pork and fried spring rolls. The accompanying sauce is light and tart. Grilled pork was charred nicely, sooo yumm. What I also like about this place is the condiments that we could use to customize the taste. I put on some chilli to make the dish spicier as per my spicy tongue! They have many other noodle dishes but I always find myself gravitating towards the grilled meat variety 😋

I'd characterize this as simple and balanced, with a punchy kick.
It again started with me wanting to go to a specific stall but finding it closed (why does this keep happening to me??).
It was already quite late and I saw this stall was still open and selling some noodles, so I got mee soto from them. I was glad that I did. The taste wasn't too strong like some mee soto I've had before. It was all balanced nicely. The chilli had a really nice kick though! I usually would ask for extra chilli coz I usually feel that the chilli in Singapore is not as spicy as I'd like it to be. Glad I had not asked for extra that time as it would have sent me gasping for air 😝
I only wish they had begedil (potato patty) to put on top, that'd be perfect!!

Several of my Vietnamese friends have said that this place is authentic so I trust their judgment! I am such a creature of comfort and habit, there is basically a small pool of dishes that I always order. I got to know this one because of my friend who told me to order "number 48". Ever since then it's a favourite! I have to admit I mostly order this dish for its excellent grilled lemongrass chicken. So smoky and yummy. The noodles are of vermicelli type with a light tart sauce. It wasn't spicy enough for me though (don't blame me, blame my Indonesian background) so I asked them for some extra cut chilli to up the oomph.
The chicken is also good with rice but vermicelli with all the fresh vegetables is a whole different experience.
Remember, order number 48!
