Noticed this stall (#02-34 Tanjong Pagar Food Centre, 6 Tanjong Pagar Plaza) the last time we were at Tanjong Pagar Food Centre. I don't know if this was truly Ipoh styled hae mee but it was delicious. There were loads of flavour from the dried shrimps in the chilli. Those dried shrimps don't appear to be the commonly seen variety (hae bee/虾米); they're more akin to sakura ebi. Unlike the local rendition of prawn noodle, there's also sliced hard boiled eggs in it.
Sambal was outstanding. Loads of crunch and shrimpy flavours amidst smokiness and garlic.
Broth on the side also has more of those dried shrimps. The flavour has a pretty strong crustacean punch.
