I have noticed that there was always a queue at this stall; Qiu Yun Ban Mian (Not Qiu Lian Ban Mian) during my visits to Golden Mile Food Centre or Beach Road Army Market. There are no reviews in the internet on this place at all. But I am sure there's a reason for the queue.
During this visit, the queue stretched all the way to the opposite stall. I noticed that this stall is manned by a young Chinese couple. The female takes the order, collects the money and prepare the ingredients for cooking. Interestingly, the male does the cooking, multitasking between 4 stoves.

| Yu (You) Mian $2.80 |
I queued for almost 20 minutes before receiving my order. Quite fast despite the queue. I was shocked when I received my order as you may notice from the above picture, there was no vegetables given. Thinking that it was a mistake, I inform the lady, but she told me there was no mistake.
Well this is the Yu Mian / You Mian. The broth was surprisingly flavourful. The You Mian (thin noodles) normally hand made by each individual stall was delicious! One can taste the fragrant and flavour in each strand of the noodle. It has been a long time since I ate a You Mian that was this fragrant and flavourful. Overall, a very decent bowl of You Mian. In addition, at $2.80, this is very cheap as most other handmade noodles stalls sells their You Mian at $3.30 or $3.50 at other coffee shops. The only down side was the lack of vegetables. Qiu Yun Ban Mian is certainty worth a try. No wonder there is always a perpetual queue at the stall.

This noodles looks quite familiar with our pan mee, the crispy crunchy anchovies and we have the sweet leaves or cekur manis. One of my fav and the sambal is a must. Here also get the spicy sambal belacan sort of dipping sauce but at some stalls, its just chillies with soy sauce.
ReplyDeleteHi
DeletePan Mee should be the flatter version of this. Did you try making the noodles yourself?
I love Qiu Lian from the early years! Then the standard (esp the chilli) drop. Now still have Qiu Lian around or not?
ReplyDeleteHi
DeleteI believe there are several Qiu Lian! My favourite is the one at Bishan S11. But as you have mentioned, the standard has dropped over the years =(
I enjoy having a bowl of ban mian but I've not been to this place to try. Is this one of the recommended place on the show on Ch 8 recently?

Hi
DeleteI have no idea if this place was featured recently. Too many TV programmes on food!
