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.

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 clings to every strand. The crispy bee hoon soaks up the rich creaminess while still holding little pockets of crunch – the best of both worlds in one mouthful. It’s hearty, comforting, and absolutely addictive.

The supporting cast of ingredients

The Xiang Di Mi Fen here isn’t just about noodles and sauce. You also get:

  • Crunchy greens like xiao bai cai that balance out the richness
  • Velvety pork slices, tender and well-marinated
  • Flaky fresh fish for a touch of lightness
  • Golden pork lard cubes, crispy on the outside and fluffy inside – the little treasures that make every hawker meal more indulgent

And then, there’s the chili sauce. Tangy, fiery, and just the right amount of heat, it transforms every dip of pork slice or lard cube into a flavour bomb.

Price and value

At just $5.50, the portion is generous, the flavours are layered, and the satisfaction level is high. For something a little different from your usual fried noodle fix, this is a gem of a find in Pasir Panjang Food Centre.

Final verdict on Fatty Ipoh Noodles

The Xiang Di Mi Fen at Pasir Panjang Food Centre is proof that sometimes it pays to switch things up. Instead of yee mee, bee hoon takes centre stage and shows it can hold its own, delivering crispiness, comfort, and a whole lot of slurp-worthy goodness. If you’re in the area and want something hearty yet unique, this dish should definitely be on your list.

Experience Spicy and Savory Flavors with Ng Kuan’s Chilli Pan Mee Pork Cutlet Ban Mian

Looking for a tasty late night meal around Hougang Kovan area? We headed down for Ng Kuan Chilli Pan Mee for their 炸猪肉板面, spicy noodles with their delish pork cutlet for this food review. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) Their noodles were amazingly springy, coupled with their awesome thick chili that was spicy and marbled with texture. Mixed together with their noodles and you get a delectable and tremendously satisfying combi. Thrown into the mix was an egg with runny yolk for the added smoothness and silky texture added to the noodles. For the crunchy department comes in the form of savoury crunchy ikan bilis, as well as crispy deep fried shallots and garlic for the uplifting flavour and aromatics. On the side, we had their deep fried pork cutlet, chopped into bite-sized chunks. They were fabulously deep in distinct flavour, crunchy and varying and superior in taste and texture. Although greasy, it was a marvelous pairi...

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...
