Xing Hua Food


There is this food stall tucked away in this sheltered food centre beside Boon Keng MRT station, Xing Hua Seafood. I must say that we stumbled upon this stall by accident. Kim ordered the Xing Hua seafood bee hoon then. And ever since then, we became self proclaimed fans of this stall. Why I like this stall? For a simple reason, their dishes are peculiar.

I had never seen this dish anywhere in Singapore before. If any of you do find something similar that I can make a comparison, please flag it out to me. Apart from the generous offering of seafood, the bee hoon is sprinkled with Japanese seaweed and groundnuts that enhances the taste. I suspect the bee hoon is prepared with the soup based stock that they prepared for their Lor Mee.

Talking about Lor Mee, their Xing Hua Lor Mee is not the conventional Lor Mee with the dark black thick sauce with starch. Its exactly quite the opposite. Its prepared using seafood based soup. Glass noodles are used instead of yellow noodles. Again this dish is quite refreshing, it reminded Kim of the Korean food and we think it goes so well if it comes with kimchi as a side dish. And you know, we might do just that if we make a stopover at this stall next time.

In short, both dishes are very peculiar and nice.
