Hong Kee Beef Noodle - recipient of Michelin Bib Gourmand 2016 award. Get extra chili - make it spicy ! Delicious!! Try to come before 1 or 1:30 - all the best stalls sell out by then!!
Check out A Noodle Story (#01-39) for their take on Singapore-style ramen , it is interesting and more importantly delicious!
Huge, many great stalls but A Noodle Story deserves a special mention for their Singapore-style ramen , which sounds like a ridiculous idea but turns out to be very tasty and value for money .
Try Noodle Story / Authentic Thai (pictured - everything they make is incredible - Thai cook!) or Hong Kee Beef Noodle . Make sure u save a seat w a pack of tissues-it can get packed. Prepare to queue!
Wantan mee : There r 2 WTM stalls facing ea other on 2/F. Wah Kee's dumplings r bigger. Char siew (BBQ pork ) slices r thicker too. These make their noodle dish something more substantial to bite in2
Hakka Curry from Happy Yummy #02-128 is served with deliciously crispy fried chicken . Curry is made without coconut milk/cream, which is only poured over rice . This $5 plate served with fried egg
Fried fish lala pao fan. Fell in love with the soup flavours from Le Kitchen Seafood Pao Fan #02-120. Drank up most of the soup from this $5.50 bowl. Then we ordered another home! ????
Braised duck noodles $4. The feature at Kim Men Seng Heng #02-133 is the light yet fragrant chilli to be mixed with the noodles . Yummy. Then there’s a separate smoky dipping chilli sauce for the meat
Traditional kaya toast . Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee #02-95 prepares this local favourite over a charcoal stove . Visit early (they open from 5:30am) to get a distinct whiff of smokiness in the air
Epok epok (curry puff ). Subdued curry flavours from J2 Crispy Curry Puffs #01-22. Crust was light, chicken curry filling soft. $1.40 for this
Pork Ribs Lamian ($5). 三好骨汤面 (San Hao Gu Tang Mian) #02-132 is garnering fans. Ordered the original & was rewarded with flavourful soup stock. Lean pork cuts. Generous cabbages . Mala option available
Bak chor mee 2: Ah Ter 01-14 serves a decent bowl with a variety of ingredients (fishball, sliced fish cakes , pork & liver , stewed mushrooms ). Wasn't impressed overall, for all the hype & PR it got.
Fresh fruits (cut or juice ). Rejoice Fruit Juice #02-89 keeps sliced fruits on display limited, to minimise wastage from oxidation (reducing vitamins). U know u r getting ur fruits fresh
French toast . $3.50 from Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee #02-95. What's unique are: charcoal toasted, butter & kaya in between the sliced bread , plus an additional dollop of kaya by the side????????
Sliced fish soup . Plenty of stalls offering this. Tried out Wangwang Handmade Noodles & Fish Soup #01-54. Enjoyed this $6 sliced fish soup + rice , with a $2 top-up of fried fish ????
Spoilt for choice hawker centre (Tanjong Pagar Mrt exit G). Avoid lunch time peak hours (12-2pm) and it will be a lot more pleasant. Other than old favorites, can even find Costa Rican cuisine here!
Chilli ban mian. Enjoyed a mid-sized bowl ($5.50) from Mdm Leong Traditional Ban Mian #02-209. Well-presented overall. Chilli was spicy . Meatballs & ‘tau ki’ (beancurd skin) tasted processed
Vegetarian bee hoon . Nothing memorable from non-descript stall #01-44 Healthy Vegetarian (No Garlic & Onion ). This plate of noodles with bean curd chips & curry $3. Added a serving of vege +$1
Vietnamese drip coffee $2.20. Vietnamese stall Life Coffee #02-134 offers this as well as banh-mi. Premium coffee did not wow me over, although it has a hint of the aromatics. Perhaps it was diluted
Sarawak Laksa . Memorable $6 bowl from Swan City Noodlehouse #02-105. Enjoyed the uniquely thick & aromatic gravy . Not overly spicy . Would order again ????????
Bak chor mee (minced pork noodles ): Yummy BCM meal @ #02-101. Noodles were 'q' (springy), sliced liver was fresh, & sauce was well-balanced with vinegar. Wd eat this again!
Ah Ter's on level 1 has some of the best minced meat noodles you can find around here: think springy noodles soaked in an umami sauce, a tasty broth with some choice morsels, and an unbeatable price.
Appam . U can get this snack from Thambi's #02-92, which also sells biryani . My egg appam went well with curry . Makes for a suitable light meal
Order the Black Pepper Beef Rice from the "Pepper Bowl" stall (#02-102); top up 60cents for an onsen egg ! Avoid lunch timing as this place is popular among the office workers from the area.
Amoy Street Food Centre is located in the heart of Chinatown and has stalls spread over two floors, so there is plenty of choice. It is also home to several of Michelin’s listed Bib-Gourmand stalls
Chicken cutlet noodles . The cutlets served from Swan City Noodlehouse #02-105 were spiced with black pepper . A treat for chilli fans ????
#stervylicious #longtong - best day! Had a great cooling morning over lontong brekky .... Initially when I saw the dish with plain gravy , wasn't impressed... But. Can try for juz $2.50. :)
Ah Ter Teochew Fishball Noodles : buy the set with soup - it's not your usual soup ! Hoo Kee Bak Chang on first floor is the only bakzhang in SG I've tried that's comparable to my grandma's! Super legit
Looking for authentic fish soup , Thai food , bar chor mee? Then go check out this hawker centre! :)
Lor Mee . Yuan Chun Famous Lor Mee #02-79. Enjoyed the 'light' sauce & meatball . Order the bigger bowl $5 for more toppings ????????
Curry rice . As a 'chai png' (economic rice ) stall , Yuguo Curry Rice #01-13 has limited dishes. However, pork chop & stewed vege were decent. Curry is aromatic & not spicy
Wantan noodles ($4). Decent plate from Wen Xiu Ji #01-31. Char siew (BBQ pork ) slices were tender. I didn’t enjoy the thicker skin on the wantans, nor their firmer pork filling
Biryani . Thambi's #02-92 serves dum biryani , with the rice not heavily spiced, and yet being able to taste the aromatic flavours sealed in
Hong Kee Beef Noodle at #01-42 is a huge rec. Juicy beef , chewy noodle , hearty broth. Michelin-recognized to boot!
Black pepper pork hor fun . Lapped up the whole bowl from Pepper Bowl #02-102. Full of flavours, generous with vege
Avoid eating there from 1200hrs on weekdays and weekends as it will packed to the brim. Good time is to go after 1330hrs when crowd is lesser
AVOID 01-29!They use overnight syrup & 3in1 coffee mix! Whn we q 2 get fruits frm their neighbour stall , auntie frm 01-29 always scold & chase us away! Muz b jealous tt e fruit stall biz alw so gd!

Must try, corner stall Char Kway Teow near ATM char, upsize more cockles , to die for, noodle story stall not bad, a couple of salad stalls , reasonable priced ask for the sesame dressing yum yum
Ah Balling: Dessert stall #02-113 is interesting. Uncle offers soup base options beyond peanut , ginger & syrup . There's also barley, red bean , green bean & whatever else he cooked! @ no extra charge!
The 5-ingredient Nasi Lemak mentioned is stall #02-81, next to Coffee Break. Minimum price now $3. Had it for breakfast . Hardworking folks. Chilli OK. Rice undercooked, fried egg overcooked. Haiz????
Fried kway teow (flat rice noodles ). The noodle plate from stall #01-01 Fried Kway Teow 炒粿條 was average tasting. Evenly fried dish and fast service deserve special mention
Chicken rice . Average-tasting serving from Min Kee #02-94. Set meal is $5 inclusive of a plate of vege & soup
Minced pork noodles . Soupy version sold from Old Chai Chee Minced Meat Noodles #02-82. Soup & wantans were savoury

Try the vietnamese store for their beef noodle soup . Glad to find them here aftwr They moved out from East side. Mon An #01-68
Braised duck rice (or noodle ). Good value from Yu Kee #01-32. This plate for $4. Soup tastes herbal but yam rice lacks aroma. Duck meat was decent
Ban mian ( hand made noodle ) at 02-127. It's is tasty with home cooked favour. No MSG too! A honest bowl of ban mian with chokeful of ingredients.
The Tong Fong Fatt stall makes amazingly yummy chicken rice .

Great authentic food, the juices are incredible. A must visit! - Andre S
Try the Deep Dish Beef Pie. Hearty and comforting mix of ground beef, melted cheese and tomato sauce. It's like a lasagna in pie form. - Jose Mella
