Meng Kee Fried Kway Teow

Outram·$

Char Kway Teow (Large)

SGD5.00

Standard char kway teow served in a larger portion.

Tip: The large portion is worth it if you're hungry. Meng Kee doesn't skimp—it's noticeably more generous than the regular.

SGD7.00

Yellow egg noodles in turmeric-based broth with chicken, shrimp, and vegetables.

Tip: Ask if they have extra shrimp available — the proteins make this dish worthwhile.

Nakhon Thai Restaurant

City Hall·$

Drunken Noodles (Pad Krapow Moo)

SGD8.50

Stir-fried noodles with pork, holy basil, and spicy sauce.

Tip: The basil is essential — it should be prominent in aroma and flavor. This is comfort food with genuine heat.

Tiong Bahru Market

Tiong Bahru·$

Stir-Fried Prawn Noodles

SGD5.50

Wok-fried egg noodles with large prawns, bean sprouts, and chives.

Tip: Watch the stall while they cook. The best prawn noodles have obvious wok hei — a charred aroma from high-heat cooking.

Meng Kee Fried Kway Teow

Outram·$

Char Kway Teow with Extra Lap Cheong

SGD5.00

Standard char kway teow with additional pieces of sweet Chinese sausage.

Tip: If you enjoy the sweet-savory contrast of lap cheong, request extra. It elevates the whole dish.

SGD7.00

Standard bak chor mee upgraded with additional liver, meatballs, and fried sole.

Tip: The extra toppings cost about SGD 1.50 more but significantly improve the dish. Worth it if not watching your wallet closely.

Tian Tian Fishball Noodle

Bedok·$

Minced Meat Noodle

SGD3.50

Thin noodles topped with ground pork and served in light broth.

Tip: Minced meat is lighter than fishballs. Order if you want noodles but feel peckish rather than starving.

Ah Heng Curry Chicken Bee Hoon Mee

Chinatown·$

Curry Chicken Mee Mixed (Half Bee Hoon, Half Mee)

SGD6.50

A blend of rice noodles and egg noodles in the same broth.

Outram·$

Char Kway Teow (Light Sauce Version)

SGD4.00

Dry char kway teow with minimal sauce, emphasizing noodle char and wok hei.

#17

Tian Tian Fishball Noodle

Bedok·$

Fishball Laksa

SGD4.00

Handmade fishballs in spicy coconut curry laksa broth.

Tip: The laksa is noticeably spicy. If you're spice-averse, start with the plain fishball noodle instead.

Chinatown·$

Char Kway Teow with Extra Cockles

SGD7.00

Standard char kway teow plus an additional serving of cockles for SGD 2.

Outram·$

Char Kway Teow with Extra Cockles

SGD6.50

Same curry broth and chicken, but served with chewy yellow egg noodles.

Laksa with premium flower clams added for extra umami and sweetness.
