Hawker Guides: Amoy Street Food Centre, Singapore

"Selected in the MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2024, this stall in Amoy Street Food Centre is helmed by a third-generation fishball noodle hawker. MICHELIN inspectors praise the broth for its robust flavour—no wonder, as pork ribs are boiled for several hours to achieve that umami goodness. In the dry version, the noodles—your choice of yellow mee, kway teow, vermicelli, mee sua, bee hoon, mee tai mak, mee pok, or mee kia—are tossed in a proprietary chilli sauce blended from seven ingredients that have to be stir-fried for hours, then topped with minced pork, slices of fish cakes, and fresh, bouncy fishballs." - The MICHELIN Guide

Had my bak chor mee fix at this stall on level 1 of Amoy Street FC. It had snaking long queues as always - I waited about 30 mins on a Tuesday at 1pm. Tried their $8 minced meat noodles (dry), and honestly the soup was the highlight. Their soup was comforting and really umami, accompanied by a really fresh prawn and a variety of the usual ingredients like minced pork, sliced pork, fishballs and fishcake. That said, the noodles were a tad too saucy and on the salty side, and I didn’t find the chilli very flavourful. Overall, I'd rate this bowl of BCM a 7/10. It's worth trying once if you’re in the area and don’t mind queuing, but I've definitely had better. Prices start from $4.50, and goes all the way up till $10.

The standout was definitely the soup. Clear but full of sweet umami from fresh ingredients, with juicy minced meat that doesn’t clump. The fishballs and thick fish cake slices were fresh and bouncy, the small-cut liver pieces had no smell, and the prawn was a good size. Overall, a refreshing, “healthy-but-flavourful” soup that I’d happily enjoy with a bowl of warm, fluffy rice on its own. I paired it with thin beehoon, though in hindsight I should’ve stuck with mee kia—my usual go-to. The beehoon doesn’t cling well to the sauces, and the chilli was milder than expected despite the generous amount. Another highlight was the freshly deep-fried tee poh. It’s huge, aromatic, and honestly could be a dish on its own. I came around 7:30am on a Sunday—no queue, and I even got to see the tee poh cooling on the table. It looked and smelled so good I’d gladly eat it just with rice.

Came back to Ah Ter Teochew Fishball Noodles at Amoy Street Food Centre on a Sunday and was delighted to see the first-generation uncle himself behind the stove! There is a huge, noticeable improvement in the bowl recently. The 鳊鱼 pieces are much bigger and incredibly crispy now, adding a fantastic umami crunch. I also loved that there are more mushrooms visible and edible in the mix—it really elevates the flavor profile. Special shoutout to the pork liver; the slices were generous, bigger than before, and cooked to a perfect, tender texture. Super satisfied with this visit. Definitely a happy tummy!

Nice bowl of noodle. Friend cook. Unfriendly helper (uncle and aunty) Had the 8 dollar version, black n spicy. Taste good. Soup is good too. Prawn is large and fresh (^^) **those prawn are not cheap even if you buy in market.

First time patronizing this shop and tried their dry Bak Chor Mee, $6/-. First looks, may seem a bit oily but the sauce coats all the noodles evenly and it's not 'lemak / gelat'. Noodles are cooked nicely and springy and the other ingredients are the usual suspects of bcm and a surprise guest, a pc of prawn. Star of the noodles is the fish balls.. imo. It's soft and bouncy and the soup was flavourful. Perhaps next time will try the fishball soup instead but overall good food, good taste. 😬

First of all this old man got a cute behavior. As though someone forced him out of retirement to come cook noodles. Like he just lighted his ciggy and i purposely come order type of attitude hahahaha. Ok so taste wise is meh. Any ah tiongs can do better. The soup really tasted like soup. Portion is like a remake of a half finished bowl. Overall I'm glad I tried. I'll take it I dropped $4.50 on floor and some random went to pick it. 1 star for old man cuteness 😊

Came at 915am and there was no queue but a few customers who ordered and were waiting. Got the $8 bowl and got served pretty quickly. Didn’t experience any bad customer treatment as some people have mentioned. Taste wise I found it too saucy for my liking. Soup was fantastic though.

The Teochew fishball noodle tasted good but not something you will crave for another serving.. Price was slightly high for the serving size. Guess its typical CBD prices. Its crowded during lunchtime.
