Kim's Hokkien Mee (Eunos) - 13 Dec 2017


We would see this Hokkien Mee stall with catchy advertisement every time we drove by...! And finally one day we decided to try it out since we are round the corner looking for food!

Kim's Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee

Would not say parking is a difficult or easy chores, because the coffee shop that hold the stall is situated outside the landed property estate and at the junction of HDB flats, can't really find any public car park unless you willing to walk a little, cos across the street would be the HDB area. Definitely for my Mr. Piggy, if a vehicle that can do most of the distance, the least he can travel by foot, he will make it happens! We are lucky and found some lots outside the landed property and tadah...! Here we are! 



Of cos i wouldn't see Kim wearing long sleeves with his golden Rolex frying the mee for us, don't know if it's a joke from the past or what.. found a few food blogger mentioning that. Well.... his infamous signage does still show that...!! Food was done by our "foreign talent", in fact i don't see any local workers, but i shouldn't criticize on that since almost all eateries, restaurants are facing the same man power issue. Main question is, is the food still as good as how it was reported.

Ok, verdict time! It's my first time there, so i won't know how's the taste is like as mentioned compared to the 60's. But my say, they are quite generous with the ingredients, i can hardly remember this is the $5 or $6 plate or more. The impression imprinted when i received this was "Wow... no bad huh... got so many sotongs and prawns!"  The bak you po (pork lard) was crispy and fragrance, the sambal chili is the key to whether it brings out the favor of the Mee...! I personally like those fried with more thick beehoon than yellow mee type and love it when it's wetter....! This stall doesn't doesn't really fit in to the wet wet type i like, but the thick beehoon proportion is acceptable range, the sambal chili does spice up the taste, overall i would say is a 4/5 rating, it passes!

However, Mr Piggy on the other hand doesn't like it at all and he can't even finish his plate... lol
By the way, i am not paid to write this review, i practically just want to keep it as a memory....!

ok. that's all folks.
