I am perplexed how some can give this one star saying it has no taste. Maybe they don't know what hokkien mee or taste is. I admit the wok hei is weak, but the broth used is quite flavourful, the dual chilli also added nice dimensions to this dish. Of course it can be better, but I think the residents here will have a hard time naming a better hkm in seng Kang.

This exceptional Hokkien mee dish sets a remarkable benchmark for culinary excellence. Featuring springy yellow noodles and thick bee hoon stir-fried to perfection, it boasts the robust, smoky essence of *wok hei*—a testament to the chef’s skillful high-heat technique. The umami-rich flavors, derived from a luscious prawn-infused broth and tender morsels of pork belly or squid, linger delightfully on the palate. A standout feature is the duo of house-made chili sauces: one offering a fiery, piquant kick, and the other a tangy, slightly sweet accompaniment, creating a harmonious balance that elevates each bite. The dish’s aromatic depth, combined with its textural contrast of crisp bean sprouts and fragrant fried shallots, delivers a symphony of flavors. An absolute must-try for enthusiasts of authentic, expertly crafted street food, this Hokkien mee exemplifies why it’s a celebrated favorite among discerning diners.

Donkey and I were craving some good ol' Hokkien Mee, and Original Simon Road Hokkien Mee definitely delivered. We both agreed that it was a delicious and satisfying bowl of Hokkien Mee. The rich, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and generous portions made it a worthwhile visit. We also tried their carrot cake, which was good but could be more crispy. We'll definitely be back for another satisfying taste of this classic dish!

I tried their hokkien mee 2 weeks ago.
Till now still craving for the taste.
That’s show this stall has sufficient 水准 to attract us customers.
Quite a wait but,
- Firstly it is genuinely 香 with some squeeze drops of lime.
- Secondly it is 💦湿 type even after 🔥焖 for quite sometime.
- Thirdly, reasonable amount of de-shelled 🦐.
Today tried their 菜头粿（白）
Crispy good amount of fragrance + 🌶️ too.
Even PM Lawrence Wong was here to pay morning visit.
Those who commented and wondering why so long queue, no WOK HEI, no 🐷 Lard, well you guys are too picky. Majority still OK.
不能满足你们，那去别的地方吃吧。

During my school days, I used to frequent this stall at the corner coffeeshop on Simon Road.
This is the dry style Hokkien mee. This plate has wok hei and is full of flavour. Although I prefer the wetter version, this HKM is above average.
Service is acceptable.

Kitty and I were really excited to try Original Simon Road Hokkien Mee, so we cycled all the way from Punggol to the Anchorvale Village Hawker Centre for dinner We were both craving some good Hokkien Mee.
When we saw the poster Kitty commented that the Hokkien Mee looked a bit dry but we decided to give it a try anyway We shared an $8 portion of Hokkien Mee and a $3 plate of white carrot cake
The Hokkien Mee was actually nice. It wasn't as dry as the poster made it seem. It was flavorful and perfectly cooked. We both wished we ordered the $10 portion because we ended up wanting more. The Hokkien Mee was even better with their sambal chili, which added a nice kick
Unfortunately, we weren't as impressed with their white carrot cake. They only had the white version and we were hoping for the black version as well. We both felt that the white carrot cake wasnt crispy or flavorful enough.
Overall the Hokkien Mee at Original Simon Road Hokkien Mee was a winner. It was worth the bike ride, but the carrot cake left us wanting more.
Wed give Original Simon Road Hokkien Mee at the Anchorvale Village Hawker Centre a 4 out of 5 stars The Hokkien Mee was delicious but the carrot cake wasnt quite up to our standards.

One of the rarest gem in Anchorvale Hawker Center, hokkien mee full of umami when every strand of noodle is soaked and cooked into its broth. Been here many times too.

NEW (4⭐️) Realised something, the dry style FHKM loses the heat/ temperature really quickly, so if you order a $10 sharing portion (see 2nd picture) you'll expect a rather cold chow in almost "no time". Be warned.
OLD (3⭐️) Ok, they seem quite busy even around 2pm-ish on a Friday afternoon. The wait wasn't long, maybe ~12mins, and they were dishing out many plates as I collected mine
Now, before mixing in the chilli, it tasted really average, no wok hei, and I think your experience would fall flat if you came with a high expectation. I didn't, because I've read enough comments about it.
Nevertheless, it is not a bad FHKM at all ($5), especially after i mixed in the sambal (dark red chilli), I found myself enjoying it - and also discovered for myself- how big the role sambal plays in my FHKM :)
Lastly, the uncle taking order got stressed up dealing with the customer ahead of me.. maybe he is new, or the request/ order was an odd ball. Anyhow, let's be more patient with them. F&B is not easy.

Have always enjoyed their hokkien mee since they were at kovan.
Glad they opened one outlet here in anchorvale hawker.
This time round had an $8 portion and a $3 white carrot cake.
Like the taste of the hokkien mee as usual. This time unable to taste any wok hei though.
Am not a fan of white carrot cake but just to try here, taste is abit bland even though with chilli. It is ok but not for me.

Falls so much out from my expectation.
Went with an expectation, left with so much of disappointment.
This portion is $8, around 4-5 prawns. Chilli they gave quite little despite asking them to top it up twice.
The prawns taste weird, it doesn’t had that freshness in them even though the waiting time was close to half an hour. The turnover should ensure the ingredients to be constantly topping up hence maintaining the freshness of it.
No wok hey, quite disappointing.
No pork lard despite the fact that I went because everyone says there’s a lot of pork lard.
Taste was really below average. Will not go to this outlet anymore.
