There are quite a few places that is well known for its Sang Har Meen (Fresh Water Prawn Noodles) i.e. Soo Kee in Imbi (in my opinion, is rather costly, and which I have boycotted!). On the other hand, I visit Soo Kee’s Son, which is just side by side with Soo Kee, separated by a road and durian stall. There is another, ‘Tai Shue Tow’ (Big Tree Trunk, literally translating) in downtown Jalan Silang (?) where all the ‘Toong Foong’ (in the 80’s) buses stops’.

I was introduced to this place named ‘Kow Siu’ in Pandan Indah by one of my brothers. It was also quite awhile since I last patronized. ‘Kow Siu’ only serves noodles and green vegetables, no other dishes, to simply and eases the speed of turning around business.

That night I ordered both Yee Meen (I loved this noodle!) for one person; Bee Hoon for two people, though there are three of us. The consistency of cooking, generosity and taste is still there despite the long absence, however, it was a bit too salty this time.
