While I don't really have a "favourite food court", Food Republic at Somerset 313 comes close by housing my favourite Fried Prawn Noodles. The springy yellow and white noodles mix with the faint wokhei fragrance, the sweet succulent prawns, the dash of lime in the eggy thick stock... This is THE one plate of fried prawn noodles I can finish nomming from start till end without stopping at all. I can't describe it without craving for it instantly. $4.80 for a plate of heaven?

Warning: Waiting time could be as long as 40 minutes at the peak of the lunch crowd. Not suitable if you are trying to squeeze this in your one-hour lunch break.

If you've read my reviews before, you'd immediately realise that I'm a fan of the Food Republic at 313. It's spacious, airy, has a huge amount of seats and not to mention, a plethora of delicious food all at prices below $10. For dinner, I decided to try the fried prawn noodles at this food republic.

A starving girl is an impatient girl. I ordered this plate of fried prawn mee expecting to wait awhile because after all, the guy who fries the prawn mee usually only starts cooking when an order comes in -and then I'd have to wait for the entire process of the stock being cooked, the noodles being thrown in, the whole wok being covered and left to sit for the flavour to seep into the noodles....etc. etc. I am a very impatient person when I am starving! But this didn't happen today. Lady Luck was shining on me -I got the plate of noodles within seconds because other people had ordered before me and there were enough noodles in the wok to divide out for all of us.
Brilliant!

For $4.80, I'd say that this is pretty worth it
It has quite a lot of noodles, all soaked in the beautiful prawn stock that I slurped up with extreme euphoria. Every bite of the noodles had a bit of their chilli in it. The chilli is spicy enough for me, but also a bit sweet and carries the flavour of 'hae bi hiam'. MY FAVOURITE!! It has a distinctively local taste to it and complements the slippery noodles. Delicious.

There was a long queue in front of this stall. Curious to find out what was so special about the Fried Prawn Noodle, I decided to join the queue and try it for myself.It was served with prawn, sotong and deep fried pork lard. Noodle was fried to a semi-wet consistency with a delightful 'burnt' aroma. Awesome by adding a generous amount of savory Sambal Chilli and dashes of lime to accompany the noodle. Maybe my picture doesn’t do much justice to the Prawn Noodle, but it indeed enough to satisfy

Monday night at Orchard. Finding a cool place and not crowded place for dinner. Decided to head to 313 Somerset Food Republic at 5th level.
The place there is cool and big with high ceiling.
Walk around to see what they have in the food court.
Saw this stall selling Fried Prawn Noodle. Say called it Hokkien Mee. Notice they serve with a bamboo leave. Which make the presentation look nice.
AS there was no Q at around 7pm. They have cook extra mee on the side just in case a large crowd come in. Hmm.... don't know that is a good idea.
What if happen there is no crowd. Will the cook noodle be thrown away or still serve. ??

I ask for extra chilli on the side. the guy happyily gave it to me. I like it with al;ot of chilli.
The mee came to look waterily which I don't really like.
But the prawn they give is fresh and 3 pcs.
Overall : Once awhile will try again.

This hokkien noodles sold here is with really nice presentation as it is placed on the white bamboo leaves which also added that extra fragrant to it. The noodles are really chewy and not overcooked. Especially like the generous amount of seafoods in it which includes the crunchy fresh prawns, chewy sotong rings. There are also thinly sliced fish cakes and lots of beansprout in it too.

Dinner at 313 somerset food republic was quite a disaster as the place is always flooded with crowds and very hard to find seats. We managed to secure a table for 2 and i order the fried prawn noodles to try. Hoping that it will taste as good as the Wisma prawn noodles, it still falls of short. It cost us about SGD 5. but the taste is just normal but serving is quite good, no harm trying!!!!

The prawn noodles at Somerset 313 taste quite good. It costs $4.80 for a plate and I feel the portion is just sufficient to fill the stomach. The noodles were fried at the right heat, enhancing the taste of the noodles. The food court at 313 is not as crowded as other food courts which make it easier to find seats.

The skill of cooking a really delicious plate of Hokkien Mee is diminishing in Singapore as few younger generations would want to pick up this skill. I had a craving of some really nice Hokkien Mee so I decided to try out what this stall can offers me. Looks yummy but upon eating it, I was quite disappointed. The dish has too much gravy and yet the noodle is not soft enough. The noodle is quite difficult to chew. I find it troublesome to have to de-shell the prawns myself too. The taste of the

Looks yummy but upon eating it, I was quite disappointed. The dish has too much gravy and yet the noodle is not soft enough. The noodle is quite difficult to chew. I find it troublesome to have to de-shell the prawns myself too. The taste of the chili is already mix up with some of the gravy which make it taste like curry.
