Not just rice dishes...

Tekka market not only has Muslim or Indian stalls only. And rice dishes ain't the only type of food that one could find and get over here. You can also find ...

'Prawn Noodles' As compared to the soupy version, I still prefer the dry version of 'Prawn Noodles' much much more. This is mainly due to the fact that I can taste the original taste of the soup, and I can savor the bowl of Noodles to the maximum and at the same time, have my fix for spicy food. For a start, the soup over here is pretty up to standard. Though it might appear to be slightly a bit brownish or reddish, but isn't that the best evidence to prove that they have used lots of red ingredients (e.g. prawns, etc...) to create this interesting looking soup color?

Garnished with a nice layer of fried shallots, covered with ingredients like 'Prawns'(Of course there's Prawns, otherwise it wouldn't be Prawn Noodles), 'beansprouts', sliced pork and not forgetting sliced chilli and powdered chilli. Though the whole plate of Noodles might appear to be pretty warm in color, but it wasn't as spicy as one might perceive it to be. However, the taste of this bowl of Noodles is a guarantee. With the nice mix of ingredients, I'm getting a crunchy and chewy sensation, topped with the nice taste of sweet and spicy ingredients in almost every single mouthful of Noodles. And this bowl of Noodles was definitely a pretty good meal to start the day. :D

So where can you give the 'Prawn Noodles' a good try?

The laughing Prawn...

Nope, I have not seen a laughing prawn before, but that's part of the name of this stall. Since it's a laughing prawn, what it's offering over here ought to have something to do with Prawns.

'Big Prawn Pork Ribs Noodles'(Dry) Though the bowl of soup which comes with the bowl of Noodles isn't stunning enough, but it has this sweet taste, which makes it pretty appealing. As for the bowl of Noodles...

Yes, I do agreed that they have thrown in lots of ingredients and the mix of sauces for this bowl of chewy Noodles is pretty tasty and amazingly good, but the 'Prawns' are kinda disappointing. Even though the taste is acceptable but the soft texture is kinda disappointing. But, the Pork Ribs are worth a big (+). Not only it's juicy and sweet, I could rip all the tasty meat off the bones effortlessly. Next time round, I will definitely be going for the delicious 'Pork Ribs' only. :P

The Appealing Fragrance of...

Hokkien Mee, also known as 'Fried Prawn Noodles'. There's a saying as you start exploring new neighborhoods, it will open up more and more interesting new places to explore. The same thing has happened to me a few days ago. As I was on my way to a restaurant, there was this nice fragrance floating in the air. From the smell of it, I knew that that's the nice fragrance of 'Hokkien Mee' and it's damn appealing...

'Hokkien Mee' When I was passing by the place in the afternoon, I saw this amazingly long queue and I thought that I might ended up queuing up for a pretty long period of time, but when I went back to the stall at night, I ended up queuing for like 5 minutes only, which is pretty lucky. :)

The 'Hokkien Mee' over here can be pretty interesting. For a start, this isn't soupy at all, it's pretty dry. On top of that, the base is a mixture of the yellow noodles and thick rice vermicelli, topped with ingredients like 'beansprouts', 'prawns' and 'squid'. After squeezing the lime and and mixing the scoop of chilli into the plate of 'Noodles', things are about to get better and better. I personally loved the part where every single bite comes with a nice strong taste of charcoal fire. On top of that, I'm also getting a delicious taste in every single bite, which is very likely to be the soup stock that they have thrown in throughout the process of preparing this dish. Well, delicious findings everyday and that just makes my life more and more interesting. :P

Not fantastic enough...

If you are a foodie, as you do a search for good dining options, you will definitely come across 'Joo Chiat' district. Therefore it's time to give the food at 'Joo Chiat' a try. :)

'Prawn Kway Teow(Rice Noodles)'(Dry) Not quite the same. And by default, rather than serving the normal bowl of 'Prawn Noodles', they are serving a bowl of 'Pork Ribs and Prawn Noodles' over here. Since I have ordered a 'dry' version of the bowl of Noodles, therefore it also comes with a bowl of soup too. The tasty bowl of soup is pretty amazing. It comes with a strong taste and aroma of pork ribs and prawns. I wonder how much time was needed to prepare such a delicious broth.

The bowl of Noodles looks pretty red to me. :| Besides for the 'Kway Teow', ingredients like 'beansprout', 'pork ribs', 'prawns', 'fried onions' and one of the most important ingredient, which is the 'chilli powder' has been added into the bowl. Hmmm... after mixing all the ingredients thoroughly, I'm pretty impress with the taste of the bowl of 'Kway Teow'. Not only it's spicy, the nice aroma of the fried onions are pretty good too. The chewy, meaty Pork Ribs are a (+) too. However, the prawns are a big disappointment. It will be much more better if they have spend a more time preparing it. I personally find it a bit too dry, which is not juicy enough for me. :|

So where can you give the bowl of Noodles a try?

Prawns with unlimited soup...

I love to drink soup. Regardless of the nature of the soup, as long as it's a bowl of soup, it would definite capture my interest to give it a try. Hence...

'Prawn Noodles'(Dry) In order to savor the original taste of the soup, I would go for for the dry version of the 'Prawn Noodles' most of the time. For a start, the texture of the 'Kway Teow'(Rice Noodles) doesn't fail to amaze me. Once I started pouring in all the sliced Chilli and mix all the ingredients together, the bowl of ingredients ended up coated in this beautiful orangy/brown color. Even with all the mixing and stirring, the texture of the Noodles are perfect. They are neither too dry nor too wet. On top of that, I love the taste and fragrance of the Chilli paste that they are using over here. However, even though the prawns are pretty big, they are a bit too soft to my liking. Nevertheless, I still enjoy the taste and the sensation of the tasty Noodles.

The best part of the meal would be the bowl of soup that comes in a vivid orangy color. I love the overall taste of the soup that comes with a nice taste of 'Prawns'. One can easily emptied the bowl of soup within seconds and just when you think that that's everything... You are so so wrong. You can always go back to the stall and request for an endless serving of soup, which is a (+).

So where can you give the bowl of Noodles a good try?

It's too dry don't you think so?

Frankly speaking, I prefer it to be wet rather than being dry. However, every one has their own preferences. Though I still prefer the wet type far more, but there might be a group out there that prefer the dry type. Therefore...

'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' Depending on the skills of the chef, this can ended up to be pretty different. Over here, the stall owner has managed to fry each and every plate of Noodles to end up to be pretty dry, in terms of the appearance. This is mainly due to the fact that all the stock that was added throughout the process of preparing this dish has been absorbed by the ingredients. As I dig into this dish, despite of the lack in the amount of ingredients that were given, that's actually a rich taste of the stock coming from each and every bite. On top of that, despite of the appearance of this dish, I'm not experiencing a burnt taste and smell, which makes this a pretty tasty dish.

Chilli Mee doesn't just comes with Chilli only...

I was browsing around this food centre and I was coming across this interesting delicacy. Since this is pretty unique and I have a big passion for Noodles, therefore I think I should give this a try too. :)

'Chilli Mee'(Chilli Noodles) For a start, it doesn't just comes with a bowl of Noodles that is covered with lots of Chilli only. Besides for the Chilli, it also comes with ingredients like 'Prawns', 'Pork Ribs', slices of 'Fish Cake', slices of 'Hard Boiled Egg', 'Fried Beancurd' and beansprouts. In fact, the stall owner is pretty generous with the portion of ingredients that were given. The Noodles are covered with a mountain of ingredients, which is a (+). Anyway regardless of the fanciful ingredients, the biggest highlight over here would be the 'Chilli'. The stall owner are preparing the 'Chilli' themselves and ingredients like 'Belachan', 'Dried Shrimps', 'garlic', etc.. were added into that 'Chilli' throughout the process of making it. Frankly speaking, the taste of the 'Chilli' is pretty thick and tasty but I don't find it spicy enough. (Probably it might be due to my high level spicy food tolerance, therefore...) However, besides for the spicy sensation, there's also a good mix of sweetness in every single bit, which is another (+). Last but not least, the soup that comes with it is pretty savory too. Even though the queue can get pretty nasty during lunch hours, but it's definitely worth queueing up for the food over here. :)

A hunt for the past...

I tried looking for this hawker centre for a few times. Initially, I thought that they might have demolished the hawker to make way for the newer buildings. However, I was wrong as I happened to come across the hawker again...

'Fried Hokkien Mee' Reasons why I loved the food over here are as follows. For a start, this stall isn't selling 1 or 2 types of food only, it works like a typical 'Zi Char' stall, they have dishes like 'Hokkien Mee', 'Fried Kway Teow', 'Fried Rice', 'Mui Fan', etc... Secondly, since this hawker is located in a industrial area, the prices of the food that you are getting here are pretty low and reasonable. On top of that, there's close to 20 different stores over here. And it's not restricted to merely Chinese food only, there's Indian, Muslim, Japanese, etc... As for the plate of 'Hokkien Mee' over here, not only the price is reasonable, the taste is pretty acceptable too. There's a good mix of 'Noodles' and the thicker type of 'Rice Vermicelli' topped with generous portions of ingredients like 'prawns', slices of 'fish cakes', 'bean sprouts', etc... The whole plate of 'Noodles' might appear to be a bit soupy, but in actual fact the 'Noodles' doesn't end up to be too soggy. But always ask for a bigger portion of chilli to boast the overall taste of the dish even further. :)

So where can you give the 'Hokkien Mee' a good try?

Penang Prawn Noodles...

It seems that every single food centre out there will have at least 1 or 2 'Hard To Get' stalls. So what's a 'Hard To Get' stall? It's the type of stall that will only be opened for a few hours. Therefore, if you really want to give it a try, you really have to 'fight' for it. For example...

'Penang Prawn Kway Teow'(Dry) This stall specializing in preparing and selling 'Prawn Noodles' and 'Century Egg Porridge' only. However, seems that all the customers are going after the 'Prawn Noodles'. The soup itself comes with a nice and sweet taste and fragrance of 'Prawns'. Even though the taste isn't too thick, but the overall taste is appealing.

However, it's the bowl of 'Kway Teow' that have caught my attention. First of all, the sauce in the bowl is black in colour. On top of that, ingredients like 'Bean sprouts', 'Prawns', slices of 'Fish Cake', slices of lean meat and a bit of 'Vegetables' have been added into the bowl. After spending a bit of time mixing all the ingredients and 'Kway Teow' thoroughly, it's time for me to dig into the bowl of 'Kway Teow'. The bowl of 'Kway Teow' ended up to be spicy and sweet. With the generous portion of vegetables and ingredients added, each bite comes with a nice mix of the chewy 'Noodles' and meaty ingredients, topped with the crunchy 'beansprouts', which makes this a hearty meal for lunch. :D One other point that I would compliment about the bowl of 'Prawn Noodles' over here would be the of sauce added is almost perfect, since the 'Kway Teow' didn't end up to be too dry or too soggy. :D

Fried Rice or Prawn Noodles...

Usually, a normal stall preparing and selling 'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' would either be selling 'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' only or it might be preparing and selling 'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' and 'Fried Kway Teow' or 'Fried Carrot Cake'. But as for this stall it's preparing and selling 'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' and 'Fried Rice', which makes it very different from the rest.

'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' The end product looks kinda wet and it's covered with ingredients like 'Prawns', 'Squid', 'Beansprouts', a bit of 'Fried Egg', 'vegetables', a piece of lime and also a small portion of 'Chilli'. By the way, usually a plate of 'Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee' will come with a plate of 'Noodles' and the thicker type of 'Rice Vermicelli', as for this plate, it seems that they have added much more 'Noodles' than the 'Rice Vermicelli'.

After spending a bit of time squeezing the lime all over the plate, it's time to mixed everything together. Hmm... after a few bites, it seems that though this dish might appear a bit wet, but in actual fact, rather than been soggy, they have managed to retain the chewy touch of the 'Noodles'. And at the same time, you can also taste the not too spicy 'Chilli' paste and the refreshing taste of the lime almost in every single bite. Well, basically the 'Chilli' could also blend with the ingredients nicely and the ingredients are pretty fresh and chewy too. But being one of the 'Top 10 favourite Fried Prawn Noodle Mee' in Singapore, I think that they have to improve their current recipe further in order to keep their reputation for another year.

So where can you give the 'Noodles' a try?

Mee Hidden in a Corner

Frankly speaking, I don't really like air-conditioned food courts. For a start the food over there are pricey and the portion of food that they are serving are relatively small. However, if you want me to list down one good point about the food courts, that would most likely be the part that the place is enclosed, therefore it could amplify the smell of the delicious delicacies. And due to the overdose of the nice aroma of ...

'Hokkien Mee', I ended up going around keeping a lookout for good 'Hokkien Mee'. The 'Hokkien Mee' over here looks pretty ordinary to me. However, while waiting for my humble plate of 'Hokkien Mee', I have seen numerous customers placing an orders for a few plates/packets of 'Hokkien Mee' at one go. Some even went the extra mile making direct calls to the stall placing big orders. O.O""" I wonder if the 'Hokkien Mee' over here is really that good...

Just for the base, there's a mixture of 'Noodles' and both thick and thin type of 'Rice Vermicelli'. And they have topped it with a few pieces of squid, prawns, pork lard and a bit a bean sprouts. And here comes the interesting part. In fact, I don't really know how I should go by describing this. The 'Noodles' have absorbed the soup that they are using over here and rather than ended up been soggy, the 'Noodles' still manage to have this crunchy and chewy touch, which makes it amazingly delicious and tasty. I wonder how many 'Hokkien Mee' stalls out there can fry the 'Noodles' to this standard. The rest of the ingredients are equally good, except for the prawns which is kinda normal and half raw. Anyway, one of the biggest drawback about the 'Hokkien Mee' over here would be the price. It's slightly much more costly than the average 'Hokkien Mee' out there.

The name of this stall would be 'Geylang Lorong 29 Fried Hokkien Mee'(芽笼29巷福建面). It's located along 'East Coast Road'.

It's infamous, but...

it's not as good as what how I have pictured it. I have heard and seen numerous stories/feedbacks indicating how good the 'Prawn Noodles' over here are, but...

'Prawn Kway Teow'(Dry) There's a reason why I have always gone for the dry version of 'Noodles'. This is mainly due to the fact that only by ordering the dry version of the 'Noodles' then you can savour the original taste of the 'Soup'. Take note, sometimes it's the soup that gives the overall dining experience an excellent one. As for the soup that they have prepared over here, it comes with a strong concentrated taste of 'Prawns' and 'Pork'. Hence it's very tasty and sweet. And the fresh prawns and the slices of lean meat are pretty good, as compared to the dull bowl of 'Noodles'. Therefore, in conclusion, I personally thinks that the star of the 'Prawn Noodles' over here would most likely be the 'soup' that they have prepared. As for the 'Noodles' I think that it still have a long way to go. :)

So where can you give the noodles a try?

Prawns around me...

As the government decides to build more and more HDB flats in my area, the number of eateries around my area has also increased rapidly. Although I haven't tried each and every one of them, but I have definitely covered most of the stalls selling noodles, Therefore... :)

'Prawn Noodles' So what makes me a hardcore noodle fan? Basically, I can't survive a whole week without eating any noodles. And there are numerous situations where the whole bowl of noodles were gone and lots of ingredients still remain in the bowl. (I knew that it might sounds kinda funny, but that's the truth.) Anyway, as for the 'Prawn Noodles' over here, I love the proportion of sauces that he has added into the bowl of noodles. Even though I have also sprinkled chilli powder all over the noodles, but as I stirred the bowl of noodles and vegetables together, the noodles doesn't end up to be too dry or too watery. I simply love the spicy sensation that the bowl of noodles are giving me and at the same time, the noodles still remain to be pretty tangy. (O.O)V The taste of the soup is pretty rich in taste and the stall owner has also thrown ingredients like prawns and lean pork slices into the bowl of soup too. (Usually, most of the (dry)prawn noodles out there, the stall owner will throw all the ingredients into a bowl and he will be passing you a separate bowl of clear soup. However, there are also stall owners that will be adding the prawns inside the bowl of soup too.) Therefore, if you are staying near my area, I would strongly encourage you to give the 'Prawn Noodles' over here a try. :D

Is this the fastest Hokkien Mee Uncle around?

I think recently I have been spending too much time travelling to different places trying out all sorts of food. Therefore the amount of photos of good food are accumulating rapidly and by looking at the speed that I'm blogging about food. How I wish that I could blog...

'Hokkien Mee' as fast as the 'Hokkien Mee' Uncle of this stall. The uncle was boasting that he can cook 40 plates of 'Hokkien Mee' within 30 minutes. For one moment he was picking and preparing the ingredients that are needed in preparing and cooking a plate of 'Hokkien Mee' and in less than 2 minutes, 'Voila', a plate of cooked 'Hokkien Mee' had appeared in front of me. Seriously, I wouldn't doubt his record of cooking and preparing 40 plates of 'Hokkien Mee' within 30 minutes when he's much more younger. By the way, fast doesn't mean that the food isn't fully cooked. I can ensure you that the food is cooked and served properly. As for the 'Hokkien Mee' itself, it's relatively cheap. It's probably one of the cheapest plate of 'Hokkien Mee' that I have ever seen. For a price of S$3, you are getting lots of ingredients. Though the overall taste of the 'Hokkien Mee' is pretty normal, but looking at the amount of waiting time needed and price that you are paying, this is definitely worth trying. By the way, though the sambal chilli isn't spicy enough, but somehow, I think that both the taste of the sambal chilli and the 'Hokkien Mee' blend together nicely, which is another (+).

Mee without Lard... ?

Hey, I'm still a human being not a poultry. Anyway back to our adventure in 'Chomp Chomp Food Centre'. After giving more than 2 or 3 dishes a try, we decided to move towards the 'heavy' stuff. Introducing...

'Fried Hokkien Mee'
I have mentioned earlier that in Singapore, you can get 2 or more
different variations of the 'Fried Hokkien Mee'. As for the 'Fried
Hokkien Mee' over here, it's the dryer version of 'Fried Hokkien
Mee'. Besides for the way of preparing it, the proportions of the
Noodles to Bee Hoon over here would most likely be 1:4. Besides
for that the main ingredients of this dish were merely bean sprouts
and prawns. I'm pretty amazed that they didn't include ingredients
like 'Sotong' and 'Pork Lard', but yet they still can managed to
attract such a big crowd in patronising this stall.

Taste wise, since it's pretty dry, the Noodles still have this
smooth, springy, chewy touch. At the same time, based on the
taste that I'm getting, I think that the chef have added a bit
of pork soup into the 'Wok' while frying the dish. And when you
mixed the whole dish with the chopped chillies and the grind
chilli paste, topped with a squeeze of lime, the whole dish will
become heavenly. Oh Yummy... :P

So where can you give this dish a try?

The name of this stall would be 'Ah Hock Fried Hokkien Noodles'
(亚福炒福建虾面). It's located inside 'Chomp Chomp Food Centre'.

Notes:

Pawn Noodles Again....

A few months back, I have blog about this heavenly Turtle Soup located along Upper Paya Lebar Road, but I was walking from the Turtle Soup place towards the nearest MRT station and I saw this...

place with a big signboard indicating 'Geylang Prawn Noodles'.
Since it can occupy such a big stall by itself, there ought
to be something special...

So here goes for nothing...:P

A bowl of 'Prawn Noodles' Pretty much similar to the Prawn Noodles that can be found in "ABC Brickworks Market/Food Centre", the ingredients that was given here are mainly vegetables and cooked Prawns that are cut into half. So if you are a Prawn head lover, here's something for you. The Prawns that was given also comes with shell and the prawn head. On top of that, I was expecting the bowl of noodles to comes with a lot of soup, but it doesn't which makes the taste of the chilli and the noodles to blend together even much more. (Usually some places tend to add either Pork Rib soup or Boiled water into the bowl of noodles, which kinda changes the taste of the bowl of "Prawn Noodles". :O) However this bowl of "Prawn Noodles" is pretty good. Although it doesn't comes with a big variety of ingredients, but the taste of the bowl of Noodles is pretty good. The spicy taste that blends in pretty well with the noodles and the flesh Prawns has given me enough reason to visit the place again. :P

Early prawn...

Woke up slightly earlier than usual but what can you do? The first item that pops out from my mind would be 'food'. I decided to explore the breakfast options in my neighbourhood...

'Prawn Noodles' Luckily, I managed to climb out of bed pretty early, otherwise I might have miss the opportunity to try this bowl of 'Prawn Noodles'. The ingredients that were given were pretty normal. There's prawns, few slices of fish cake, few slices of pork meat and bean sprouts. Although, the noodles and the ingredients doesn't taste fantastically wonderful, but somehow the taste of it is pretty acceptable. As compared to the noodles, I think the taste of the soup is even much better. The strong taste of the prawns can be extracted from this small little bowl of soup easily. Furthermore, the taste of the soup will only get better and better as time goes by, which makes me wonder how tasty the soup can be when it reaches late afternoon...

So where to get this simple bowl of 'Prawn Noodles'?

May this bowl of 'Prawn Noodles' change your views.
The speciality of this place would be the soup that they are using.
The soup is slightly light brown in coloured... looks like a Teh
(Tea with Milk) to me? (The noodles and the chilli powder were
pretty much the same as any other 'Prawn Noodles' stall, but the
soup was fantastically good.

In each and every bowl of 'Prawn Noodles' that you are ordering
from this stall, you will be getting 'Prawns' as well as 'Pork Ribs'.
(I wanted to try the noodles and the soup, therefore going for a dry
bowl of 'Prawn Noodles' would be a better choice.)

However, besides for the strong prawn taste that you are getting in
the soup, there's also a sweet taste from it. I was wondering, did
they make the soup out of 'Prawns' and 'Pork Ribs'? Otherwise, I
would be interested in finding out the secret recipe behind this
deliciously good bowl of soup. (Hmmm.... and there's the mystery
of the coloured of the soup. I wonder is it because of the garlic...)

But where can you find this stall?

The name of this stall would be 'Noo Cheng Adam Road Prawn Mee'.
It is located at 'Zion Road Food Centre'.

Note:

• Operating Hours: 12pm–3pm, 6pm–11pm Daily
• Closed on Mondays
• Visit the stall at night where the taste of the soup will become thicker and thicker...
