Wok Magic: Dive into The Neighbourwok’s Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee Extravaganza in Bukit Batok

 


A Taste of Bukit Batok Magic

If you find yourself strolling through Bukit Batok and craving a culinary adventure, The Neighbourwok's Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is a must-try. We recently took the plunge into this flavorful experience, and let me tell you – disappointment wasn't even on the menu.

Sizing it Up: Affordable Pleasures

The Neighbourwok offers three sizes for their Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee – $5, $6, and $8. We opted for the $5 portion and were pleasantly surprised by the generous serving. You know you're in for a treat when your eyes widen at the sight of your meal.

Spicy Revelations: Chili with a Kick

The chili accompanying the dish was a spicy revelation, slightly runny but mingling marvelously with the aromatic noodles. It adds a fiery kick that dances on your taste buds without overpowering the dish's overall harmony.

Wok Hey Infusion: Aromatic Intensity

This is the wet type of Hokkien Mee, and the fragrance is nothing short of intense. Wok hey infused, the aroma is both potent and aromatic, promising a sensory journey with every bite. The taste and smell hit all the right notes, creating a symphony of flavors.

Textural Symphony: Pork Belly, Squid, and Crispy Lard

The texture game is strong here. Chewy pork belly strips, springy squid strips, and the pièce de résistance – deep-fried pork lard that's effusive and distinct, simultaneously fluffy and crispy. The $5 portion even comes with 2 fresh and crunchy prawns, elevating the dish to another level.

A Gastronomic Treat: Overall Verdict

In summary, The Neighbourwok's Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is a marvel that we enjoyed tremendously. It's a gastronomic treat that hits all the right spots – flavor, aroma, and texture. For $5, it's a steal that leaves you yearning for more.

So, if you're in Bukit Batok and the craving for a plate of Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee strikes, make your way to The Neighbourwok. Your taste buds will thank you for the flavor-packed journey.

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...
