Sliced fish thick bee hoon soup at a hawker stall ($4)!
Hawker sliced fish bee hoon soup — thick rice vermicelli in milky fish broth, sliced fish, lettuce and fried shallots. $4.
Light lunch fix — sliced fish thick bee hoon soup at a hawker stall, $4. Comfort soup in an orange bowl. 😋
What was in the bowl ($4):
- A nest of thick bee hoon (rice vermicelli) in a clear-to-slightly-milky fish broth — clean, slightly peppery, the kind you can taste was simmered with real fish bones.
- Slices of fresh fish (likely batang / threadfin) — clean white flesh, mildly sweet, not over-cooked.
- A pile of fresh lettuce for the green crunch.
- A scatter of crispy fried shallots on top for the aromatic finish.
Squeezed in a bit of lime and a dash of pepper, slurped the broth between bites.
Total: $4. Honest hawker pricing.
Overall: 4.3 / 5. Fish was fresh, broth was clean and not powdery (a common shortcut), and the lettuce added crunch. Light but satisfying. 😍👍🏼
