There is a very strong charcoal taste initially but as it goes on the mix of flavours and prawn with lard comes out. Delicious.
The queue can be quite insane, but their Hokkien Mee makes it worthwhile for queuing up. They use Charcoal as a method to cook, that's why their Mee has that smoky fragrance . Very unique taste.
You can taste the Charcoal fragrance for every mouth. Sambal chili is spicy . More towards the dry type of Hokkien mee and each strand of noodle fully soaked and absorbed in the broth
Best hokkien mee I've had. Full of flavour - stock is great. Prawns are quite fresh. The charcoal fire does make a difference
Very smoky , Chao Ta flavour...in a good way. Noodles are not chewy...too soft! Prawns are sweet, and squid fresh! Chili is spicy ! 8/10!
While the chef has 2 helpers, he keeps the cash collection himself, stopping his frying occasionally to hand out change
While the “wok hei “ (smokiness ) is dominant in the dish, it added a bitter aftertaste. Not very pleasant. May need more lime juice to hide/cut through. This is their smallest plate ($8, 4 prawns )
don't look like much but tastes just quite the opposite. stop moping around reading reviews and get a plate already.
I’m a huge fan of HKM and I really want to like this store as I love the brother’s stall at East Coast. Quite disappointing for me. Prawns were big but not fresh, stock not fully absorbed. No wok hei .
So famous that they opened a coffeeshop opposite to try to steal business. Tastes the same since hubby ate more than 10 years ago.
Mee was good but order $8 above portion if it's for sharing.
I must say prawns are pretty big and fresh! This hokkien mee is not too dry nor wet. Noodles r springy. If that's the way u like, then its worth coming!
Best hokkien mee ever!! Long queue on weekends (include Friday)
At corner with Lorong 29
Come early to queue up !
Best Hokkien Mee in Sg. Also check out the Satay next stall!

been eating since 2004. I must say since 2009, the taste gradually changed for the worst.noodles 2 wet, lacking the 'smoky ' taste...u wouldn't feel the diff compared with any ordinary coffee shop 's
Fishballs are irregular so I thought they were handmade but they're from a factory. Tasty nonetheless - they use a good supplier - Gabriel Seah
Good: the batter is fried very well and crispy. I order the crispy version, not wet version. The oysters are very fresh. - Bernard Lim
Love the taste and noodles texture here. Has authentic wanton noodle taste in every bite. Yums! — eatwithroy - Big Roy
I love the mee hoon kueh soup! Fresh ingredients, rich stock without the after-effects of MSG, I love to put extra minced pork in my soup! Comfort food!! - Dora Choo
The noodles were just AWESOME. The pork balls are very flavourful! The flat fish was crispy, the pork intestines were mindblowing. The Teochew dumplings were very savoury and delicious. YOU NEED THIS! - Bernard Lim
Toasted bun with pork floss & omelette. I wish the flatbread was warm & fresher. The combination of sweet & savoury fillings would go well with the slight crispness of each bite - Cheen The Curious
