Ha Ha Bin Hokkien Mee @ Chinatown Complex [CLOSED]

Recommended by Dr Leslie Tay, I decided to try this stall for myself. I am a keen supporter of the next generation of hawkers taking over. When I heard of this 21 Year Old Hawkerpreneur, I had to come. At around 3pm on a Sunday he wasn't there. I had this guy, almost "reheat" the previous batch of noodles for me. Perhaps this could be way I loved it so much. Because it had been sitting in its broth soaking all its flavours. 

Its base broth, has very rich flavours of Prawns but I felt that they added a little too much rock sugar. It was sweeter than normal. But it is still good. If you like your Hokkien Mee to be a bit saltier, you could stir in the Sambal Chilli into each bite. This seems to balance the sweetness and add to its savouriness. 

The Sotong/Squid was fresh and not overcooked, and there were "bits" of Pork Belly (I wished they were chunkier). But the "Sand" Prawns that they used were simply luxurious. Albeit being two pieces, they were firm and chewy. 

I'd definitely come back for this plate if I am in the area. Beats the franchised and commercialised ones along Smith Street Food Street.
