Satay bee hoon is a fusion of Chinese and Malay dish, mixed of bee Hoon, Kang Kong, cuttlefish and drowned in satay or peanut sauce. I think every tourist should not miss this unique Satay Bee Hoon when they are in Singapore.

I don’t often eat Satay Bee Hoon, but to be honest, Centre Satay Bee Hoon is one of the pretty good stalls that makes me nod my head while I'm eating it. Centre Satay Bee Hoon have been serving this dish for more than 30 years.

Prices are at $3.50/$4.50/$5.50 a plate. Price of $3.50 should be enough to fill an adult stomach.

Most of the satay bee hoon elsewhere where the gravy and bee hoon did not mix well together. Looking at the amount of sauce here, quite impossible.

The ingredients of satay bee hoon here are cuttlefish, prawn, sliced pork, cockles, Kang Kong, fried bean curd and obviously the bee hoon.

The gravy here was surprisingly the highlight for me as it was just right every mouth. The nuts were cooked till it was soft and the gravy wasn't overly greasy. It looked rather watery, but when tasted, the gravy was so rich in flavour. It has a strong aroma of roasted nuts, with bits of peanuts all over.
We will come back here for their peanut-y sauce definitely.

Nowadays it is difficult to get a bowl of good Pig's Organ Soup 猪什汤 in Singapore. Always a delight when you're craving for hot soup, especially during rainy days. 

Situated along the long stretch of Jalan Besar Road, you can certainly see the signboard that sells traditional pig organ soup.

Their pig's organ soup is priced at $4 and $6. The main difference is in the quantity of the ingredients. Besides having its own soup, they also offer a variety of other different dishes as well.

Need not worry about the amount of soup given as it's refillable. Their braised sauce is free flow too! If you need a top up for your soup, just bring it to the dedicated soup top up counter. 

Inside the soup, it has pig liver, sliced pork, pork belly, pork ball, tofu, and salted vegetables.

Most eateries out there usually serves their broth containing a very lots of pepper added. The soup here is well balanced, not porky and not overpowered by the crunchy salted vegetable. They have managed to reduce the saltiness of the soup to the minimum while still generous with their quantity of the ingredients. I enjoyed every spoon of it and has drank 3 bowl of soup straight!

The sliced porks are tender, succulent, without the dryness texture. 

There are 2 stalls known for their pig organ soups in Jalan Besar, both with almost the same name. While its competitor with the same name located at Foch Road might seem more crowded, I prefer the soup here as they are lighter, more balanced flavor. 

Indeed, this is a great place to check it out if you are over here at Jalan Besar Road!

It was a lazy Sunday evening and after watching NOC's latest FoodKing episode, we decided immediately that we have to try this Sarawak Kolo noodles. 

It was not hard to locate 林玉梅's Sarawak Kolo noodles. They have only two choices - Laksa Sarawak and Sarawak Kolo Noodle.

We were lucky to have reached 7 PM+, and there weren't any long queues seen. 

We decided to try for their signature kolo noodle as highly raved Food-King Good! by NOC (can you spot their decal on the stall?) 

The cooking portion was pretty fast and straight forward - noodle was cooked in boiling water before running through the noodles in the room temperature water. Before serving, the stall owner mixes oil from onion and lard, light soy sauce, and chili in the bowl before placing the noodle in. It was then topped up with minced pork, char siew, spring onion and bawang goreng (fried onion) before it was served.

This is the portion for $4.

The almost colorless noodle was pale looking, but it was definitely not "pale" tasting! The Maggie Mee look alike noodles were actually very tasty and springy! Very well mixed with the ingredients, the taste of the Sarawak kolo noodle served at this stall was simply incredible. It was flavourful yet not overwhelming, every bite taken from the bowl of noodle seemed to make you want to continue eating. The chili, however, can be quite spicy so do take note to inform stall owner to place them in a saucer for you if you are unsure of the right amount to take.

We weren't served with free flow of pork lard as mentioned in NOC's video, however, we felt that the flavors in the bowl were enough for us. We felt that the texture of the char siew however, can be improved (I'm not a fan of dry Char siew). Other than that, we have no further complaints on this bowl of noodle.

林玉梅's Sarawak Kolo Noodles is definitely a must try if you are around that area. It is not uncommon to see patrons returning to take away a few packets of noodle home even after they have finished eating their share. Definitely a returning customer!
