The Signature Crispy Chao Ta Bee Hoon with Seafood was really nice, crispy and dry outside, moist and flavourful inside, with serious wok hei.
Crown Prince Kitchenette is tucked away in United Square and a tad difficult to find. The JB style Fried Bee Hoon, or Chao Ta Bee Hoon, is one of its signature dishes. It wasn’t bad, crispy and wit…
Overall, the dishes are quite well done but on the salty side which we gave feedback to the chef as well. After the rebranding and revamp of the menu, I’m not sure if the dishes taste different.
Despite this small letdown, the meal was still a solid one that I would highly recommend to anyone in the area. Prawnography is undoubtedly a must-visit spot for Hokkien mee lovers, especially for those who enjoy a variety of seafood and meat in their dishes.

This place didn't look very convincing when they first opened, so I never went in (273 Thomson Road #01-03A, 8686-9777).
Yes, it was better than I thought it would be, although it was also like twice the price of their usual porridge.
They offered quite a wide range of protein choices for your porridge, including aburi Iberico pork collar, black herbal chicken, as well as clams, grouper, and even salmon.
These guys had some wok hei-specific bowls too, but they really didn't deliver much of that wonderful smokiness.
Indeed, I slurped this small bowl down to the last drop and even got more otah afterwards. I should eat here more often.
