Of the old Bukit Purmei Lor Mee heritage. The braising sauce was really thick, deep and flavourful here, with tones of pork ribs and five spice powder and slightly sweet. I really liked the fried meatballs or ngoh hiong here, lending a nice textural and meaty touch to the lor mee and not really available elsewhere nowadays. Nice lor mee.
I find the food here decent at best. Although it did not impressed me in the taste department, what is worth mentioning is how the stall managed to keep prices affordable for the elderlies in the neighborhood all these years.
The third generation are working hard to preserve Uncle Teo's legacy. Let us give them a little support and compliments to keep them going so we could continue to have a superb bowl of heritage lor mee for generations to come.
I find the usual Chinese curry too runny, not spicy enough and had too much coconut milk for my liking. For me, curry should be thick, spicy and a little sticky.
A piping hot bowl of porridge for breakfast on a chilling morning seems just right so, I ordered a bowl to try as well. Served with a dash of pepper and deep fried crispy bee hoon, the porridge more than satisfies. Needless to say, this is what I enjoyed the most out of the three items I have tried.

I ordered the Shredded Chicken Horfun ($3/$4), served with a generous portion of shredded chicken meat and vegetables. The portion for the horfun for $3 is quite a lot too. The thick and viscous dark gravy that was poured all over the horfun was so good with an earthy taste.
Overall, this is an above average bowl of lor mee but sadly, it did not manage to meet the standards of the predecessor.
