Phuket's signature Hokkien noodles stir-fried over charcoal
"Mee Ton Poe serves a stir-fry of fat noodles heaped with pork, shrimp, squid, and pork sausage in pepper gravy, cooked over a charcoal stove." - Sharon McDonnell
"A multi-branch noodle institution that set the standard for the island’s signature mee Hokkien — yellow wheat noodles stir-fried with pork, seafood and greens until smoky, finished with a savory gravy and a just-set egg; a reliable spot for the classic Hokkien fried-noodle experience." - Austin Bush
"This simple shop was originally founded 70 years ago by the owner’s grandfather, who cooked his famous stir-fried noodles over a charcoal stove. Since then it has been through 3 generations. Though the noodles are still a highlight, do try their tasty Phuketian-style appetisers, such as fish cake and spicy fish curry paste with betel leaf." - Pruepat 'Maprang' Songtieng
"A 70-year-old stall, Mee Ton Poe is known for its thick stir-fried Hokkien noodles cooked over a charcoal stove. Whether accompanied with pork, vegetables, or seafood, the dish is best served with an oozy half-cooked egg on top. But work your way up to the good stuff with Phuket-style appetisers like satay, chewy fish cakes, and spicy fish curry paste with betel leaf." - Veronica Inveen
"An open‑air, family‑run food shack founded in 1946 and named for a sacred bodhi tree nearby, long regarded as the benchmark for mee pad Hokkien in Phuket. The classic dish features thick egg noodles fried in dark soy sauce with marinated pork, dried shrimp and Chinese kale, topped with a fried egg, slivered raw shallots and deep‑fried pork rinds; a newer, more indulgent version adds oysters and fishballs. Now into its third generation, the business has expanded to multiple branches, takes reservations and can deliver to hotels in the Phuket Town area." - Chawadee Nualkhair
