Imagine I used to come to Lor 29 every week yet I wasn’t aware that there was tasty nosh to be had at the coffeeshop (Sing Lian Eating House 星联餐室). Until I went in search of the hokkien mee, with K in tow, that I realized what I’d missed all those years!
In any case, the hokkien mee was well worth the trip, though at $6, the portion could’ve been a bit more.
Most remarkable about the noodle was the unmistakable wok-hei. The chef fried the noodle over a charcoal stove, the sight of which was definitely a rarity these days. Coupled with fresh seafood and a not-too-wet texture, this rendition was miles better than the usual food court variety.
