As you walk along the corridoor and turned your heads towards the Old Stall Hokkien Street Famous Prawn Mee stall, a friendly uncle who was just standing in front of the stall will start singing praises to his famous prawn mee. His way of marketing his bowls of prawn mee was impressive as I seldom see many hawkers who took so much pride expressing themselves.

 We order the prawn mee with pork ribs and service was not only friendly but generous. In terms of condiments like chilli powder, soya sauce etc.

 Pork ribs was cooked to tender and packed with flavour in the prawn mee. Although prawns was not fantastically big, their prawn broth was indeed very tasty. Another side note was that ab article indicating "No MSG" sign was printed and plastered in front of the stall.

The stall sells hokkien prawn mee with about 8 different combination : the orginal prawn noodle, pork rib noodle with prawns, pork rib noodle, pigtail noodle, pigtail noodle with prawn, pigtail and pork rib noodle with prawn , which are available in 2 different size of serving priced $5 and $7, as well as, big prawn noodle at $8 and big prawn with pigtail noodle at $10. The stall is manned by a friendly fat old man, who recommended me the second choice which is the Pork Rib Noodle with Prawns.

A unique choice of noodle here is the flat noodle, which I opt for it.

 For $5, the serving looks really small coming from a hawker centre stall. I have the dry and spicy version which is quite tasty and have lots of crispy deep fried fats. Yummy. Although the soup looks well boiled, but it tastes a bit light for me. Overall quite a tasty dish.

Long, long queue at this prawn noodle stall

Decided to try the prawn noodles here as the queue's forever long. The wait wasn't that long, and it was pretty bearable.

 I actually wanted the prawn noodle with pig tail but that was already sold out by lunchtime. Instead, I had the prawn noodles with pork ribs. Think it costed about $4. Again, I have to emphasise that the uncle at this stall is soooo friendly. He makes jokes when taking orders, is always smiling and tells you to "take more of whatever you like", be it chilli powder, soya sauce, etc. Such a sweetie. I LOVE good service, especially at a hawker centre!!

The prawn noodles were pretty good. The soup was light compared to many others I've tried, and the pork ribs were PACKED with flavour. I could taste the peppery goodness with every bite. Very well-marinated I must say! The prawns on the other hand, weren't that big and there wasn't anything special about them. Overall, it's tasty but I've had much better elsewhere (unless you're talking about the pork ribs alone - now THAT'S special). I wouldn't mind coming back though!

 My love one is an Hokkien Mee & Prawn Noodles lover, so he will been searching on the net...

The soup is lighter in colour than the usual dark coloured prawn mee soup i tasted else where..On first sip of the soup, i find it rather bland and not rich in flavor as i expected it to be... could it be that my taste buds have been so spoil by the usual dosage of MSG and hence could no longer appreciate pure natural cooking without it? Or perhaps its my choice of bee hoon that could not bring out the flavor of the soup? I'm not quite sure...However, i must point out that i did not sprinkle their special made chili powder which could enhance the flavor i suppose. This home made chili powder seems to be their specialty as its also for sale...Overall, the soup still taste good but I din like the sliced pork as i find it too fatty...

Pork & Prawn Noodle
2013-04-22 62 views
Hong Lim Food Centre there many stall food to try out, but every where is crowded long queue. I am very hungry so look for less people queue, come to this prawn noodle stall. I saw the poster is NO MSG, so more healthy. I ordered Pork & Prawn Mee Fen mix with Noodle which the uncle highly recommend to me. Aunty will ask do you wan to separate the soup, cause i take away. I prefer the soup separate. Overall the soup base is nice and have fresh prawn taste. The pork is good enough. Not that hard.

Pork rib and Prawn Noodle

We passed by this stall, it reads Famous Hokkien Mee. We were very fortunate when we were there was no queue.

I ordered the pork rib with prawn bee hoon and thick yellow noodle. First look at the soup was clear, it does not have a trace of prawn paste, and it tasted more of pork than prawn. As the poster claimed that the chilli powder made of special secret recipe, I find that it makes no difference to the soup. The price $5.00.

Their trademark bright yellow color signboard is quite prominent in the old Hong Lim hawker center.The $5 serving which I usually order prove it's value from the complement of fresh prawns and pork ribs.The light-colored soup base seems devoid of dark soya sauce but it'll surprise you with the flavourful sweet essence of pork ribs and fragrant from the fried prawns shells.The noodles are normal thou.

The noodles are normal thou.


Certainly not the best you can find, but not to be missed if you happen to lunch around Hong Lim Area.
