Patrons of this food centre would be familiar with this wonton mee stall that perpetually has a long queue.

Kok Kee Wanton Mee (国记云吞面) - S$4/-
Offered in two sizes, we went for the smaller portion which came at S$4 while the larger was S$5. To be honest, I thought that was rather exorbitant, considering the amount of food served; two wantons, six thin slices of char siew and few strands of greens.While I felt that the price was not proportionate to the serving size, the wantons were well marinated and flavourful. What scored points was the al dente noodles which were bouncy and springy. What I particularly fancied was the mildly sweet sauce that the grumpy uncle poured on the noodles which made all the difference. The char siew however was dry and while we liked that it was thinly sliced, the much desired savoury taste was sorely lacking. I would also have preferred a stronger punch with the chilli sauce, which seemed too watery for my liking.
Service wise, expect almost nothing except at best a grumpy uncle who would take your order and money with haste and shout across to the busy chef inside in Cantonese.
