Kim Bak Chor Mee 金肉脞面 (Balestier Road)

Bak Chor Mee $4

Kim Bak Chor Mee 金肉脞面 is a minced meat noodles (bak chor mee) stall operated by an elderly man called Mr Ng. The stall located along Balestier Road has garnered quite a fair amount of reputation on the blogsphere in this year.

Mr Ng is in the photo above. I arrived on a weekday afternoon during lunch time and waited around 10 minutes before the food was served.

Bak Chor Mee $4

The Bak Chor Mee cost $4 consisted of noodles with braised mushroom served with a bowl of soup with sliced meat, pork liver, minced meat and meatballs in it.

This bowl of mee pok was quite good. The noodles were well cooked and the sauce was tasty with a hint of hae bee (dried shrimps). I particularly liked their braised mushroom which was so fragrant.

As for the bowl of soup, it was just so disappointing. The livers were sliced too thinly and was overcooked despite me removing them from the soup earlier. The rest of the ingredients like sliced meat, meatballs and the soup was mediocre. 

I am not too sure what the hype is about as there are other better bak chor mee stalls.

Xiang Xiang Fishball Noodle香香 (Chong Pang Food Centre)

Fishball Noodle (Mee Pok) $3

Xiang Xiang Fishball Noodle香香 is a fishball noodles stall located in Chong Pang Food Centre in Yishun. 

Xiang Xiang Fishball Noodle香香 is one of the more popular stall in this food centre. This stall has been around for a long time (more than 25 years ago) and has a loyal customer base. It is very popular and you can expect to wait 30 minutes for your food to be served during peak hours. This stall is one of the few which is not self-service. So you can wait for your food to be delivered to your table after ordering. Look at the number of awards displayed at the facade of the stall. They are popular for their fishballs and also old school style fishball noodles. Today, they have started selling their fshball at the price of $2 for 9 pieces of fishballs.

Fishball Noodle (Mee Pok) $3

I visited at 3pm for tea break as I know better than to order during peak hours. I ordered the dry version of the Fishball Noodle (Mee Pok) $3 with chilli. For $3, this was extremely value for money considering how generous they are with the ingredients.

The mee pok was topped with generous amount of bean sprouts, spring onions and pork lard. The chilli sauce at the bottom when mixed with the noodles was a perfect match and had me wanting for more. The noodles were well cooked; soft and springy (QQ). Coupled with the bean sprouts, it provided crunchiness to this bowl of noodles. 

Fishballs

5 pieces of fishballs were provided. And it is not any normal pathetic small-sized fish balls. The fish balls here were slightly bigger than normal (elsewhere). How good is the fish ball? Well, taste is subjective. So why not let me just say this and you decide for yourself. During (every) Eve of Chinese New Year, they sell lots and lots of the fish balls (if I am right, the number of fish balls they sell is close to a couple of thousands during this period). Many customers purchase the uncooked fish balls from them and use them for their reunion steam boat and other dishes over the festive period.

To conclude, this was Cheap & Good. Have you tried this?
