Ming Fa Fishball 明发鱼圆 (Upper Thomson Road)

Ming Fa Fishball 明发鱼圆 (Upper Thomson Road) also know as Meng Kitchen 日夜小厨 is located along Upper Thomson Road, around 10 to 15 minutes away from Marymount MRT station. Ming Fa Fishball 明发鱼圆 is famous for their Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles (aka Bak Chor Mee).

It is located along the same row of shop houses as The Roti Prata House, Salted Caramel and Udders! This place enjoys a higher traffic during evenings and at night compared to the day. Many Singaporeans would come to this area for supper. Hence, if you would like to satisfy your Bak Chor Mee craving at night, do be prepared to queue and jostle for a table.

Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles $4

As I visited at 4pm on Sunday, there was no queue and the place was only one quarter. Who eats Bak Chor Mee at such a timing anyway.

I ordered the $4 Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles (Bak Chor Mee) with Mee Pok. It was served with a bowl of minced meat soup topped with seaweed and spring onions.

Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles (Mee Pok) $4

This bowl of Bak Chor Mee consisted of a meatball, minced meat, braised mushrooms, liver with bits of pork lard and spring onion.

The Mee Pok was cooked just right. Each strand of noodles was springy and firm. The chilli and vinegar base which was well conjugated complemented well with the noodles.
