The newly painted Kim Keat Palm Market & Food Centre, located at At 22 Lorong 7 Toa Payoh, just reopened for business again. One of the must-eats at Kim Keat Palm Market is the Hai Nan Xing Zhou Beef Noodles (海南星洲牛肉粉)! After trying this, I'm convinced that I like beef better than chicken - but it is rare to find a place that is able to cook beef well, and at an affordable price too.

Beef Noodles ($3/4/5)You can choose the noodle type as well as soup or dry version. For the dry version you will have a separate bowl of soup base.
I can still remember the vivid taste of the soup, the noodles and the beef in my mouth even after two weeks. This goes to show how much I love it. The soup is thick, richly flavoured with the beef taste, and a little peppery. The beef is super tender. This is a huge plus point for me because I usually avoid beef because I always needed to chew on it multiple times before it is soft enough. But this is immensely enjoyable to bite, and the beef flavour is strong without being overwhelming. The beef meatballs were also adequately springy. I squeezed a dash of lime which gave the soup another twang to its layers. Love it!I'm getting really hungry just looking at the photos and I can almost taste it in my mouth right now. Bringing "mouthwatering" to a whole new level... if you live in Toa Payoh area and have yet to try this, you know where to go for your next lunch place. This place is worth many revisits... if only I lived nearer, this could easily be classified under my "comfort staple food".
Do note that it is closed on Mondays.
