8 Oct 2023: Lee Loudou Little Kitchen - Cantonese fried ying yong (flat rice noodles + vermicelli) was good - flavourful gravy with generous meehoon (vermicelli) & koay teow (flat rice noodles) portions. Loved the fact that fine instead of coarse meehoon was served. The loh mee gravy was a tad sweet for me. A dash of black vinegar in it would probably have helped cut the sweetness and made it more palatable to my taste buds. Iced coffee was ok.
31 Dec 2023: the Hokkien fried meehoon (vermicelli) pleases my palate taste- and texture-wise. The dish was not as oily as some others I have tasted with the fine vermicelli cooked to a softness level that I like - less than springy but not too soft either. The addition of the fried pork lard - a must in my books - adds a nice, aromatic touch that elevates the flavour...
ย ย ย Read moreDecided to try this place as it was nearby. Typical kopitiam with around 6 food stalls. Reasonable cleanliness. Affordable. Street side parking available. Crowded during weekday lunch.
We ordered chicken rice & duck kway teow thng. Chicken rice was average at best. The meat was tender & juicy. The duck noodles were really good. Packed with flavor. The accompanying soup was warm & peppery. The stall is run by an elderly couple. Worth a try.
Drinks have to be ordered before seating. Weird concept when they are crowded. Not meant for solo diners I guess. We drank a hot honey lemon & iced cham. Both were well made. Not too sweet & nice flavor.
An okay lunch stop. Some interesting stalls to try if we are...
ย ย ย Read moreGood food, reasonably priced, very cooling & comfortable due to the many high powered fans inside the kopitiam, and very clean.
Most of the food is pretty good. 2 exceptions: 1) duck noodles not very tasty (only taste is from the fried pork lard) and 2) quantity of meat & vegetable in the Cantonese Ying Yong keeps shrinking but it looks like a lot because they put more noodle. ๐
Fortunately the main kitchen's food and the Japanese stall have maintained quality & quantity so still worth it. Highly recommend the Japanese stall Chikinya! Owner has excellent customer service, price very reasonable for Japanese food, food itself is done well. Our favourites are the karaage & Japanese...
