Old Airport Road Zheng Zong Lor Mee @ Tampines Street 43 - Sisters Of Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee Open Own Stall

OldAirportLorMee13

Have you tried the famous Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee at Old Airport Road hawker centre? Recently the sisters of Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee has opened their own stall at Tampines Street 43. The stall name is Old Airport Road Zheng Zong Lor Mee, located at the coffeeshop beside the market. As words get around of their opening after seven months, there is a constant snaking queue for their lor mee now.

I heard that the sisters start the day as early as 130am to start preparing the gravy and ingredients in order to open the stall by 6am. That is a lot of hard work behind a comforting bowl of noodle in a thick and viscous gravy.

The Lor Mee ($4/ $5/ $6) comes in three sizes. We have the largest portion loaded with shredded batang fish, braised pork, braised egg, beansprouts and parsley. The serving is very generous. Not forgetting the garlic and vinegar, which is the soul of a good bowl of lor mee. You can also add a dollop of chilli sauce and some chopped chilli to spice up the enjoyment.

I have not tried Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee, but accordingly, to my friends, the gravy is lighter in flavour in comparison. For a first-timer like me, I find it acceptable and well balanced. It definitely makes the spot as one of the top lor mee stalls in Singapore.

Apparently, the stall also sells prawn noodle. I didn't try it, but if you do, do let me know whether it is good?

Woon Woon Pek Beehoon @ Changi Village Food Centre - A Steady Plate of Seafood With White Beehoon

IMG_1775

A popular trend in 2017 is the number of white beehoon stalls that have been sprang up across the island. One of them is Woon Woon Pek Beehoon which started back in July 2016 at Changi Village Food Centre by Javien (34 years old) and Reece (36 years old) who quitted their corporate careers to move into food and beverage business. With the help of Reece's father who is a chef with 52 years of experience.

The stall offers a variety of seafood such as lobster, crayfish, prawn, lala, sliced fish and scallop to go with their rice vermicelli. I decided to go for the Lala Crayfish White Beehoon ($10/$20/$30) which comes with the lala clams, crayfish, cabbage, pork lard and white beehoon. The portion is good for 2-3 persons.

I have to say the plate of Lala Crayfish White Beehoon is actually quite well executed. The beehoon probably has been wok fried first to achieve the wok hei flavour before being braised together with the seafood and chicken stock for the beehoon to absorb the flavours. Pork lard is further add to boost the already flavoursome plate of white beehoon.

Guang Xing Original Taste Fish Head Bee Hoon @ Changi Village Food Centre

IMG_6054ed

My partner was telling about this hawker stall at Changi Village Food Centre that was featured in some food variety stall that sells quite awesome sambal fish head. Some on a Sunday a couple of weeks back, we made our way to the far east of the island to check out Guang Xing Original Taste Fish Head Been Hoon (广兴原味鱼头米粉) stall at Changi Village Food Centre. A long queue was formed at the stall and we have to wait up for a good 45 minutes for our food.

Sambal Fish Head 4.2/5

The Sambal Fish Head ($10/15/20) is the reason why we have made the journey to the far east. This fiery looking dish packed a punch and will set your mouth on fire. I am not sure what species of fish the stall used but it was firm and bouncy. The sambal was definitely the highlight cooked with the delectable fish head and bitter gourd. The aroma sambal also has a hint of Hua Tiao wine making it more fragrant. The stall is also popular for its Black Bean Sauce Fish Head with bitter gourd.

Fish Soup 4.2/5

It was a blessing that we ordered the Fish Soup ($4) from the stall too. It helped to cool off the burning tongue. The fish soup was light, refreshing and flavourful. The fish slices was also fresh and moist.
