86 Lor Mee is located at stall number 86, as its name suggests, in the ever-so-crowded Golden Mile Food Centre. Helmed by a Vietnamese lady and her husband, this stall puts a modern twist on the traditional Lor Mee, almost like a fusion-style.

Rather than the typical toppings of fish flakes and Ngoh Hiang, their noodles come with Ebi Tempura, Fried Fish, Chicken Cutlets and more.

Looking to enjoy the best of all worlds? Yes, not just both. All. Indulge in their Signature Lor Mee ($6/$7) that comes with portions of all the fried items they offer. The freshly fried toppings came served on a separate plate to prevent them from getting soggy because of the gravy. But I decided to place everything in the bowl for the gram after collecting my order.

The fried items – Ebi Tempura, Battered Fried Fish, Ngoh Hiang, Fried Wontons and a slice of Chicken Cutlet – were perfectly crisp on the outside and well cooked on the inside. In fact, the thick gravy acted as a rather pleasant dip to accompany the ingredients.

The spring roll was creamy and had a subtle yam taste. Not forgetting the pork which was on the leaner side yet still tender.

The gravy was not only aromatic from the five-spice powder added to it, but also extremely flavourful. The minced garlic undeniably added a kick to every bite while the tangy vinegar helped cut through the richness. I had my bowl of Lor Mee with a Noodle-Kway Teow mix which the sauce clung to well!

Opting for a more out-of-the-ordinary topping once again, I dug into a bowl of their Fried Chicken Lor Mee ($4/$5). This came with a whole chicken cutlet that was easily one of the best I’ve had. Simply crispy, tender and juicy. The beehoon had a nice chew that contrasted the crunch of the cutlet beautifully.

The other ingredients in the bowl were pretty standard fare —they are present in every variation. These include pork, half a braised egg and 2 Fried Wontons.

For those looking for a more traditional option, go for the Homemade Ngoh Hiang Lor Mee ($4/$5). Besides these, they also have a Fried Prawn Lor Mee and Fried Fish Lor Mee ($4/$5) if you’d rather settle for just one main ingredient.

As someone who enjoys her Lor Mee the traditional way, I was initially quite sceptical about this rendition. But I’m sold and will definitely be back to satisfy my Lor Mee cravings soon!
