Wednesday wanton mee at an Aljunied hawker stall ($4)!
Dry wanton mee with char siew, fried wanton, greens and the classic dark sauce, plus a side of soup-and-wanton broth. $4 at an Aljunied hawker stall.
Quick weekday wanton mee fix from an old-school hawker stall in Aljunied. $4. Need I say more? π
Whatβs on the plate:
- A neat nest of springy yellow noodles, tossed in that signature dark sweet-savoury wanton mee sauce. A spoon of chilli on the side just visible.
- Slices of char siew β slightly charred at the edges, sweet caramelisation showing.
- One golden fried wanton balanced on top, looking like a little crispy fan.
- A handful of blanched greens (choy sum) for the green.
- A side bowl of soup with floating wanton and greens β clear, fragrant, slightly peppery.
For $4, this is exactly the kind of hawker meal that reminds you why weβll never run out of wanton mee.
Overall: 4 / 5. Noodles QQ, char siew tender, fried wanton stayed crispy throughout. Honest, no-fuss, value-for-money. Will be back. πππΌ
