Malaysia Pork Noodle (猪肉粉)

The success of Legacy Pork Noodles at its Potong Pasir location has not only brought upon more outlets of Legacy Pork Noodles around the island, but also in general more dining establishments that dedicates itself to serving up Malaysia-style pork noodles around the entire island as well — think stalls like New Ocean 新海 KL Pork Noodle and Fish Head Noodle that is located at the Blk 93 Lorong 4 Toa Payoh Market & Food Centre for example. There seems to be yet another establishment that specialises in serving up Malaysian-style pork noodles that has recently opened around the island in recent times — named Malaysia Pork Noodles, the stall can be found sharing a stall unit with the wanton noodle stall within the coffeeshop named Meng Soon Huat Eating House at the foot of Blk 359 Bukit Batok Street 31; a short walking distance away from Bukit Gombak MRT Station. The stall is one that shouldn’t be difficult to find considering the image of a pig that appears on its signboard; the menu of Malaysia Pork Noodles is also kept rather simple being comprising of only Pork Noodles that are available in soup or dry format.

We like how the folks behind the stall does allow for patrons to opt for the Pork Noodle to come without pig liver or innards; something which they do ask the patrons when they are making their order at the counter. Malaysia Pork Noodles does allow their patrons to choose from a variety of noodles for the noodles that is to be served with their order of the Pork Noodle. We went for the Dry version of the Pork Noodle; the choice of noodle that we went for was the Mee Tai Mak, though other types of noodles available would be the Yellow Noodle, Kway Teow and Bee Hoon. With us opting out of the innards, our bowl of Pork Noodle (Dry) came with a bowl of soup that comes with pig liver, pork balls, pork slices and clusters of minced pork — the accompanying bowl of noodles that came on the side having been tossed with dark sauce, chili and comes with lettuce and crispy fried pork lard. One look at the soup and one could tell how the soup here comes with all of the minced pork disintegrating into the soup — the soup comes with a cloudy appearance and is immensely flavourful being all savoury on a warm and comforting manner. The pork slices and minced pork were all immensely tender and easy to chew — pretty fresh and did not come across as being rubbery; not carrying any hint of undesirable porky stench. The pork balls provided a firm, meaty bite, while the pig liver were not too grainy with its flavours being not too intimidating for those whom do not necessarily like pig liver in general.

The Mee Tai Mak comes all slippery, smooth and savoury — coated in dark sauce whilst also carrying a hint of spiciness that should be manageable for those whom are tolerable to moderate levels of spiciness; all that while crispy fried pork lard adds an element of crunch and a fragrance to the noodles when chewed upon. At $5 for the Regular portion size and $6 for the Large portion size, the Pork Noodle at Malaysia Pork Noodles are definitely considered wallet-friendly enough to be considered as an everyday meal option — one that we felt they also provided us with quite an authentic taste of Malaysian-style pork noodles based on the various renditions of the same that we had tried around the island thus far. One that we would consider dining at especially if we were to be craving for some good Malaysian-style pork noodles when around this part of town.
