Perhaps have a listing of top 10 Hokkein mee in Singapore, organise a makan trip to taste them all and cast vote at the end of the journey.....Wah sounds like a mouthful....

I would definitely recommend Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee @ Old Airport Road Hawker Centre. Best of all....

Nam Sing is quite unique. not oily, no lard, no chilli paste almost like a 'cheng' hokkein mee

Please do go to Block 28 Hoy Fatt Road to try their Chicken Rice (I forgot the store's name). It's priced at $2 and there's always a snaking queue. Also, do try the Nasi Padang store there as well. It's rated "Divine" by Makansutra, and it sure is! These two stores are in the same coffeeshop, the one facing the HDB flats.

I've so glad Hokkien Mee came in 1st. I like SCS Butter's suggestion of having a Hokkien Mee trail. I'll be one of the first to sign up for that!

Hi Leslie,

I am Elton here, I have not commented here before but I am here to ask you something...

Well, I am looking for a place that is good and mid range in a nice cosy resturant. Ranging from $10 - $25 per pax. Do you have any recommendation that you might be able to tell?

This post has brought up fond memories of my parents ta-baoing Hokkien Mee wrapped in or-pek leaf..I know some stalls now still practice this but somehow..that of my childhood just seems more "pang"..the or-pek leaf was really a big piece ..still remember the scent steaming up when the package was unwrapped ..Thanks for the post Leslie, good job ! : )
