Keng Heng (Whampoa) Teochew Lor Mee – Full of Delicious Surprises!
February 03, 2020
Truth be told, Lor Mee is not the first thing I would order at a Hawker Centre. The thick, starchy sauce just seemed strange to me. However, I always keep an open mind when it comes to food. So, when I heard of Keng Heng (Whampoa) Teochew Lor Mee, I was keen to give Lor Mee another try!
Located in Golden Mile Food Centre, this unassuming Lor Mee stall attracts snaking queues even on weekdays. I went down around 12pm on a Wednesday and there were around five people in the queue. Once I got my bowl of Lor Mee, I turned around and saw almost 10 people in line!
One of the best parts of Keng Heng (Whampoa) Teochew Lor Mee is its value. The dish is reasonably priced(from $3 – $5). I ordered a $5 portion and got a large serving of ingredients such as fried wantons, fish, fishcake, pork belly and crispy fish skin. With so many different ingredients, every bite of this Lor Mee will be a lovely surprise!
The thick, starchy sauce that makes Lor Mee so famous is either loved or hated by people. While I fall in the latter group, Keng Heng’s Lor Mee sauce is one of the best I have tried! The sauce was thick, but not starchy to the point where it was difficult to eat. The thick sauce clung to the noodles, which were also well cooked and not mushy. I highly recommend adding all the sauces available at the stall, such as raw garlic, vinegar and chilli sauce. These sauces help lift the Lor Mee sauce, which can be quite heavy on its own. The auntie who takes your order adds in the sauces for you, so make sure to let her know if you want more or less of anything!
While Keng Heng (Whampoa) Teochew Lor Mee did not convert me into a Lor Mee fan, I can safely say that this is one of the best Lor Mees that I have tasted. The wide variety of ingredients, together with a great sauce, and affordable pricing, make the Lor Mee here a must try for everyone!
