Chee cheong fun + bee hoon — kopitiam breakfast ($3)!
Old-school breakfast — CCF in sweet-sour-chilli sauce trio with sesame seeds, plus dark fried bee hoon with beansprouts. $2 + $1.
Kopitiam breakfast — chee cheong fun + fried bee hoon at $3 total. Classic old-school combo. 😋
What was on the trays ($2 + $1):
- Chee cheong fun ($2, bottom plate) — folded soft rice noodle rolls dressed in the signature sweet sauce + chilli sauce + dark sauce trio, scattered with white sesame seeds and chopped scallions. The classic 3-sauce mix gives it the red-orange-brown swirl pattern on the plate.
- Fried bee hoon ($1, top plate) — dark soya-braised thin bee hoon with beansprouts + chopped scallions, dressed in additional dark sweet sauce pooled at the bottom of the plate.
CCF (chee cheong fun) is the SG breakfast classic — soft rice noodle sheets rolled up and cut, dressed with the sauce trio. The sweet sauce (hoisin-style) + chilli + dark soya combo creates the signature red-orange-brown swirl that hits all the flavour notes at once: sweet + spicy + salty.
White sesame seeds are the textural finisher — nutty crunch against the silky-soft noodles. Most stalls give a generous sprinkle.
Fried bee hoon at $1 is the old-school side dish bargain — dark soya-braised bee hoon with beansprouts, the kind that’s been sitting in the warmer steam tray since dawn. Soft, sweet-soya flavoured, comfort food.
Total: $3 for the kopitiam breakfast double.
Overall: 4.2 / 5. CCF sauce trio was the proper old-school balance (not too sweet, not too spicy), bee hoon was reliable warmer-tray comfort. Total bill under $3. 😍👍🏼
