Hui Ji Fishball Noodles & Yong Tau Foo (#02-44) - 30 Seng Poh Rd

Back again at one of my favourite stalls in Tiong Bahru Market. The soup is a little diluted today, but still, the chili sauce is good as usual, and mine goes with extra pork lard as usual again.

Tasty bowl of Meepok fish ball noodles. Add a few pieces of YTF and this makes an excellent bowl of noodles. The noodles were al dante and not soggy and were "marinated" nicely with their chilli sauce.

Another fantastic mee pok dry that I have discovered lately from Tiong Barhu Market and food centre. Beside selling the standard bak chor mee, Yong tao fu is also available. But selection was pretty limited when I was there around 1.30pm. Noodle starts from SGD$3. Portion was generous and comes with a lot of ingredient. Its comes with fishcake, fish dumpling, fishball and slices of pork. Noodle was nicely cooked as it still retained the bite to it. Have not eaten a bowl of Noodle that has the old school taste taste to it for something already. Absolutely love it!

This store was recommended to me by my hubby who used to patronize it when he was a kid. Both of us ordered the same bowl of fishball mee Pok, his with normal amount of chilli and mine with less. It turns out that his was much better in terms of flavor, with the right balance of sweetness, spiciness and lard oil. What I love most was how the lard oil is fried with garlic and baby shrimp, giving a very nice fragrant, bitterness taste when u bite into it. I guess the uncle is catching up on age? and probably isn’t as consistent as we would like... which is a great pity. But still, when he gets it right, this bowl of fishball noodles is one of the more memorable ones I’ve ever had.

Quite a nice bowl of Fish Ball Noodle. Good fish ball quality, soft n yet tender noodle that added vinegar in their flavor. Just $3/bowl. Super-duper cheap n nice as my morning breakfast. Will come back again. ?

Fishball noodles $3 version. Al dente noodles in well seasoned mild spicy sauce. I think theres ketchup. Includes a good amount of bouncy fishballs, pork slices, fishcake slices and her kiao.

Nowadays you probably has to pay upwards of $4/$5 for a normal bowl of Mee Pok Ta noodles, much less the famed ones from $6/$8/$10. Here nestled in Tiong Bahru Hawker Centre, where there's a plethora of famous eats and Michelin fares, a quiet nondescript Fishball noodles stall surprising hold it's own. Coming here today for late lunch at 2pm, most stalls are already near closing, I just wanted a light bowl of savoury Mee kia with a comforting old old taste, and I stumbled on a rare gem. This stall offers both Fishball noodles and Yong Tau Foo. Looking at the Yong Tau Foo offerings, I can tell most of the surimi stuffed picks are already finished, and their used bowls collection stacks are amazing, they must have been doing something right. Alright let's go for the most basic and ridiculously cheap $3 bowl of Fishball noodles. Mee Kia Dry, extra chilli. I noticed after blanching the thin noodles, they only stirred in simple sauces. Chilli, Lard oil, fish sauce and vinegar. Add the toppings, and coat a dollop of their Yong Tau Foo chilli. Somewhat excited with my dish and I love what I saw. The inviting sauce covered lard bits and the very white, succulent looking fishballs and fish cakes slices. Stirring the noodles, the fragrances of lard, vinegar and a very familiar ketchupy mix tingle the senses. Itadakimasu! The Mee Kia was done just right, chewy with a firm bite and the sauce coat the thin noodles just nice. And the sauce, not just the lard, Hae bee chilli and savoury fish sauce, tangy vinegar, but an old school ketchupy sour and sweet fills you with a very familiar taste. It's like the kind of noodles you ate at those old school HDB coffeeshops or primary school canteen. I am like a school boy tucking in at recess. The fishballs and fishcake slices are lighter in taste, but smooth, very bouncy and I would have preferred them a little more fishy. Still, their offerings are great and bouncy though lighter on the palate. Probably easier for the aged customers living around the area. The soup is more a Yong Tau Foo offering rather than a Fishball soup, still it is a nice bowl of clean tasting accompaniment to the delicious noodles. I am so coming back for the Yong Tau Foo next time Update 24 Apr 2022. Came by late at 2pm on a Sunday. Fishballs sold out, Yong Tau Fu items only cuttlefish left. They substituted Cuttlefish slices for the fishballs and gave me lots of bean sprouts for my Kway Teow Mee, still $3. Delicious. Check out additional pictures

Located in the furthest end from the escalator in Tiong Bahru hawker center, Hui Ji is one authentic teochew fishball noodles that is consistent in quality through the years. The dry versions teochew fish ball noodles are good in terms of the quality of springy fishballs, dumplings and fish cake, the right mix of chilli and vinegar coupled with bits of fried pork lard. Soup has a simple clear taste - v old school. They also sells yong tau foo which you can pick your ingredients or let them choose die you, sauce options for chilli and sweet sauce are available. My choice order here is dry fishball noodles with an additions of yong tau foo items like chilli, bitter gourd and kang kong ( morning glory). With inflation rampant everywhere, I am pleased to report that my big bowl of fishball noodles is still $3 plus the additions of 2 bitter gourd, chilli & kangkong, it’s only $4 total! Very cheap for todays standards. Do recommend to try and support them!
