After all this while, this is still one of my favorite stalls. I was talking to Grandpa about this stall and offered to take away a packet of noodle for his lunch in a particular occasion. He then mentioned he used to bring me there for breakfast when i was really young. I honestly do not remember eating at this stall during those days. I suppose i must be really young to remember it.I only stumbled upon this stall again after i gotten back from the US by chance. I started eating at this stall a
I was talking to Grandpa about this stall and offered to take away a packet of noodle for his lunch in a particular occasion. He then mentioned he used to bring me there for breakfast when i was really young. I honestly do not remember eating at this stall during those days. I suppose i must be really young to remember it.
I only stumbled upon this stall again after i gotten back from the US by chance. I started eating at this stall again on a regular basis. I came to know about this stall in the booklet published by Makansutra, it stated 6 chopsticks were awarded to this stall to give it the 'Die Die Must Try' status. I went to try and i am hooked since then.
I remember reading a recent article reporting that this stall offers one of the best Mee Pok in Singapore. Their springy mee pok has always been my personal favorite but i do like the kway teow too. I have mentioned before other than the skillfulness in cooking the noodle, their secret recipe has gotta be their chilli. This stall is officially closed on every Friday and Monday to prepare their chilli. They are often closed on ah hoc basis too. The current owner is the 2nd generation and he is already in his 70s and perhaps that might be part of the reason that they usually closed irregularly.
After all these years, they still served one of the best mee pok and kway teow mee in Singapore. I am always there to take away the kway teow dry for my grandparents and even after 10 minutes of travelling time from there to their house, the 2 packets of kway teow dry are still not meshy. My grandparents can even eat it with a pair of chop sticks. This is how skillful the old Uncle is in cooking the noodle.
A basic bowl of noodle is at $3.00 and it consists of 2 fish balls, a few slices of few cake and lean meat and a big piece of mushroom.
The waiting time can be a nightmare if you happen to come during their peak period. I usually come after breakfast but before lunch and i always try to avoid weekends and public holidays. And please come before 1.30 pm as they usually sold out before 2pm. And after the recent reporting on the newspaper, they tend to be sold out off even earlier.
As mentioned in the earlier part of the review, the Uncle is in his 70s and is going to retire after the lease of his stall is up in 5 years time. His son, who is also his current assistant is not interested in taking over his business and so hurry, if you want a taste of the legacy before the gone of yet another legend.
