This is one of those really nice Chinese vegetarian bee hoon down at Chen Yi Vegetarian in Holland Drive Food Centre (44 Holland Drive, #02-26, Holland Drive Food Centre, S120044) which I discovered some years ago. Quite a bit of the items on the bee hoon are made in short order, noteably the crispy mock duck made of dried bean curd sheets which was hot and crispy. The cabbages was soft and not soggy. I wonder if the store has ever adjusted for inflation and the increasing cost of food ingredients in the recent times. For $2, it certainly made a cheap and tasty breakfast.

There's a really delish one at Clementi Central. It's my fav, at $2 too if they hadn't up the price. Tiong Bahru & Ghim Moh market have 2 stalls which serve really good ones too.
And I hardly even fantasize about vegetarian noodles.
apparently, one of my ex-canteen worker is working for this stall now. and she's always asking us to check it out! haha! pretty famous as well, this stall. i reckon.
For a carnivore like myself, I do too sometimes crave the occasional vegetarian bee hoon, especially with heaps of the crispy oily stuff. The fact that it has probably more calories than the real thing is makes up for the fact that it isn't haha!
d: haha stop tempting me! Now I'm seriously contemplating going vegetarian for one meal lol. :P
@ all
This stuff is pretty good. I remember eating them as a kid with my parents down in Tiong Bahru market. Along with other assorted stores along the way as I grew up.
I'm generally not into Chinese vegetarian as you can see from the vegetarian tag in this blog. It's mostly Indian for me, but this is one of those that I do like. I actually prefer those curly noodles to bee hoon, but they only had been hoon here so....
@nic
