Revisiting the Best Char Kway Teow in Singapore [最好吃炒粿条] @ 132 Jalan Bukit Merah [生成炒粿条]

Egg is such a perfect ingredient that i could not imagine an omnivorous life without it!

However, our topic today is not on the 100% protein food; instead this was a re-post on what i believe to be the best char kway teow in Singapore!

A bit on the history of this stall (i don't usually touch on historical facts as i vehemently believed that regardless of the history, the taste is what that matters most to me); original site was at Wayang Street, the current owner (and chef) learned his skill from his father (who hailed from China) and he has been frying the local black noodles dish for over 40 years!

Eggs are commonly added to Char Kway Teow (guess all locals are aware of this) but my interest was recently piqued when i saw a customer asking for an additional sunny side up! I knew i had to try it out!

The sunny side up did not result in any taste difference and i thought it would be more worth the money for the extra egg to be stir fried together with the noodles.

Nonetheless, i am still pleased with the extra black kway teow which remained as good, as delicious and as sinful as the very first time i had it six / seven years ago!

Remember to ask for extra pork lard!

  2. I just called the number. It belongs to someone else. Maybe remove it so we don't disturb the owner of the number.
    Is the stall still there...?

    1. Hi Stephen, thanks for your feedback. I have removed the number and also checked with a friend who has a relative staying nearby. The stall is still operating it seems but as it's been a long while since i last visited, i am unsure if the standard remains the same...
