Yuan Chun Famous Lor Mee (源春驰名卤面), Amoy Street Food Centre

Yuan Chun Famous Lor Mee (源春驰名卤面), Amoy Street Food Centre

I remember having a bowl of lor mee from Yuan Chun (#02-80 Amoy Street Food Centre, 7 Maxwell Road, tel : +65 62911439) some years ago and also recalled not being impressed. But there was a suggestion to give them a try so I relented since the memory was hazy from the last time round and importantly, there wasn't much of a queue.

The first thing I noticed was that the gravy was viscous but not starchy. Not outright impressive in flavour by itself but tasty with the spoonful of vinegar and chilli. Speaking of which - these guys don't have chilli paste, only chilli padi which I thought produced a cleaner heat compared with the paste. I didn't taste any garlic as well. The toppings were so so and I don't mind eating again as long as I didn't have to deal with a queue.
