    Hi Seth, have you tried Swee Guan Hokkien Mee in Geylang Lor 29? This one is better than the Geylang Lor 29 Hokkien Mee or at least on par. Because it is the ORIGINAL Geylang Lor 29 stall run by the other brother. This one is superb and their prawns and sotong are quite fresh also

    I used to frequent the 'Come Daily ' Hokkien Prawn Mee stall when I lived at Blk 123, Lor 1, Toa Payoh back in 1982-84. Must have been the dad who cooked back then. Funny thing was that they had misspelled the signboard as 'Come Dairy'! Live in Denmark now- My mouth waters....

    This one is something that I want them to feature. I wish char kway tiao would be featured. Seriously speaking I have not eaten a good char kway tiao for the past 5 years other than the hill street char kway tiao that is located at the hawker center opposite of Temasek junior college. Most of the talented Hawkers who cooked the best char kway tiao had either retired or nobody to continue what they do or have died. Really is like going to die out. Nowadays I don eat them as it doesn’t hit my target of what a good char kway tiao is

    For Hokkien mee, I personally prefer the Bedok corner marketplace. The food center opposite of Bedok camp. That Hokkien mee is among the ones at ABC brickworks and airport road market is one of the few best Hokkien mee in Singapore.

    Eat is easy,giving rate is easy,cooking the dish oneself is another story.Food critic when one is not a cook oneself is questionable particularly when it come to traditional food.Ingredient that goes well with what dishes etc.Now new fusion dishes pop up everywhere all over the globe so the bottom line is the cook /chef will come up with whatever dishes there is of their creation but everyone have their own taste and should the food met one palate then the food is good ,great or whatsoever.Food is about eating and fill up one stomach and to energize one body.Food critic are there to popularize certain dishes or even restaurant,particularly now where people are willing to spend quite an amout of cash based on this so call expert in food and taste should be like and taste like.Its all about money now.Back in the old days there is no Michelin rating whatsoever but people still eat because when one hungry anything goes.The world best food critic or blogger will appriciate instant noodle when they are starving. THUS food of one choice is when it is good and met one taste and fill up one belly and get the energy to go thru one day's.
