Meow Xiang Vegetarian 妙香斋素食 – Very Meh Zeh Bee Hoon

If anyone knows of good vegetarian bee hoon in the East side of Singapore, please let me know…. ‘Cos this wasn’t it. Even though this is supposedly a famous stall. My all-time favourite spot is in Jurong West, & that’s quite a journey.

I mean, I finished this plate of Zeh Bee Hoon 斋米粉 ($2.50 nett), so it wasn’t terrible. It just lacked the finesse & oomph that I look for in vegetarian bee hoon… Call me a snob, but perhaps I’ve been spoilt by my favourite stall.

My preference is for saucey noodles – so I found the bee hoon in this too dry for my liking. Ingredients were also quite basic (passable).

Chilli was pretty good though, so I’ll give them that. & they open really early in the morning, so if you were up at 6AM like me hunting for food & with this specific craving… Maybe give this a shot.

But it’s unlikely I’ll be buying this again.

58 Prawn Noodle & Minced Meat Noodle (at 704 Bedok Reservoir Road) – not sure what the hype is…

Long queue on Saturday at 12pm lunch at this stall at 704 Bedok Reservoir Road, but turnover was quite quick. Cleared 9 people in front of me within 10 mins – IMHO, because of the systematic way of they take & prepare orders.

Prawn Mee

However… I really don’t know what people are queueing for. This was a super ordinary bowl of prawn mee ($4). The soup wasn’t as umami as I’d hoped for, they messed up my noodle type (gave me 面 instead of 米粉面), & there is a disproportionately large amount of noodles to ingredients.

It wasn’t terrible, but I wouldn’t return for this. Not sure what the hype is…
