The more frequented of the stalls carrying on the legacy of hawker brothers Alex See and See Hock Siong, this is run by Alex's younger daughter Penny See and husband Qin Sheng, with mum Grace supporting.
.
Compared to her elder sister's stall, there are slight variations. Their rendition is rather balanced, leaning towards 'wet'. Continually stir-fried over a roaring charcoal fire for up to 30 minutes, the yellow egg noodles and rice vermicelli are tossed with egg, pork lard, and a pork and prawn stock broth gradually infused.
.
This results in a soft gooey texture, with robust smoky grainy savoury salty sweet eggy flavour.
.
There's crunchy deshelled prawns and bouncy squid, bursting with sweet savoury flavour. An edge over her sister's version is the addition of fresh crisp spring onions, lending vegetal herbal sweet flavour.
.
A drizzle of lime juice lends bright tangy zesty sour flavour, while a house secret-recipe sambal belachan lends a punchy but not overwhelming savoury salty spicy flavour.
