Gim Chew Fried Hokkien Noodle

Visited on a weekday, the uncle was rather friendly and service was also quick as the cook whipped up another 3 portions rather quickly. First impression, the dish did not have the wokhey smell. The noodles though were cooked right did not carry much flavor. The alkaline noodles overpowered the prawn base they had use. The chili helped to elevate the taste of the dish but it did not do much.

Delicious hokkien mee, inconsistent standards. How good the hokkien mee tastes depends on who is cooking. There is this guy aged 30 to 40 plus with specs who man the store, and he is extremely misery about the chilli. If you ask for more chilli, he will just give you slightly more and say "alot already". If not for this guy, I would have given 4 stars. Not sure why he needs to be so "niao" about the chilli. I think it would have been so much better if he is more generous. Its just chilli!

Very generous portion. Didn't have high expectations cos there wasn't any queue and the uncle scooped up a plate of Hokkien Mee from an existing batch. I was pleasantly surprised by their flavourful Hokkien Mee was the wet style version. The stock used is very good. The sotong is rather tender. This is soooo much better than the average Hokkien Mee. Definitely will buy again if I'm in the area.

This stall used to be beside the popular cendol stall at the Bedok Hawker centre. Used to eat it pretty often last time. This is my first time eating after they shifted to the renvoted hawker centre. Sad to say, I was utterly dissapointted with the food. Noodle was bland. Seems like the standard has drop tremendously.

Ordered the $4 one thinking they would give more ingredients but there's only 2 prawns and a bit of sotong... It's mostly noodles and a bit of chilli. There's also small bits of shell in it, which might be dangerous for small kids. It's the watery kind with more gravy so the noodles are soggy, which I don't mind except it doesn't have much flavour :/
