The Stall |
Tai Wah / Tai Hwa Pork
Noodle are well known for foodies in Singapore. The conflict between
these two stalls made the headline a while back, until today it seems
the bad blood are still there. Each of these stall have there own
staunch supporters, so its all come down to personal preference.
My first encounter with
Tai Wah Pork Noodle during their time in Bestway Building. I remember
that stall was run by the parents and a younger gentleman. Knowing my
Chinese was not very bad, the mother was very friendly and patient
when taking my order. Not long afterwards, the shop there was closed
and I saw this stall in Hong Lim recently.
The Price List and Awards |
This time around I
ordered the $6 soup version. You might be saying, what? $6 for Bak
Chor Mee ('BCM')? Well just consider BCM is the Ramen version of
Singapore. It will be less ouch when you pay for it.
The Bak Chor Mee |
For $6, I get quite a big
bowl of noodle, which can fit my face with lots of condiments like
mince meat, meat balls, pork liver, flat fish, wantons and seaweed.
The Perfectly cooked liver & lard |
The broth was robust, but
on the lighter side. It has the sweetness from pork bones. The noodle
is springy (qq). The liver are cooked to medium, pink in the middle
and tender. I notice that instead of throwing the mince meat and
liver to the pot, they pour hot water on them on the bowl while they
are cooking the noodle. This must be the key to the yummy pork liver.

Overall, Tai Wah Pork
Noodle serve a very good Bak Chor Mee. All the ingredients are cooked
perfectly. If only their broth are more robust, I will consider them
one of the best. Cheers!!!
