- Had the fish ball soup with kway teow.
- Also a fried fish cake on the side.
- Fish ball soup is just average.
- Bit more expensive than the hawker centre prices.
- Saw in other reviews that the lor mee is good; might try that next time.

- Tried the laksa.

One of the worst E.A.T outlets. The bachormee noodles not cooked well and dry. Soup like not even half of bowl. Shop must be so calculating that can't even afford spring onions. Teh iced feels crappy. Eat at own risk. I totally don't enjoy it at all.
STANDARDS please?!

Quite full house if u want to come for dinner. I sit near to the cashier counter. Table bit dirty but no choice. The cashier wearing mask plus soft voice, a few customers cannot hear what she said. But she very patient. I ordered laksa, soup too little. Not enough lal, felt like eating dry noodle with little gravy... The portion very little with the price of $5.50. The fried one not crispy and she said today don't have clam (original picture has). At the end, I'm not full. 🤭 spend another $4 bought the mini raisin bun from the green four leaves store.

Got a rude shock by the price of laksa. $6.10 dabaoed. Got a ruder shock when I opened the container watery laksa less than half the shallow container. The rudest shock when I took a taste. Indeed tasteless watery gravy, tasteless taupok and undercooked beehoon and beansprout. My family and I am never buying from eat again

Paid $5.00 for noodle plus tea. This small outlet has limited seat, not so conducive. Food wise is mediocre but acceptable. The fish ball is inferior to Li Xin. However at this price, I would consider value for money. Good for a quick meal.

Order coffee n tea, coffee was sour-ish and tea tasteless. Told the FT cashier coffee was sour-ish, instead of changing a new cup for me, she said coffee was newly prepared and not possible to be sour. Added more sweetener milk, still taste sour-ish. In the end i change to tea and was tasteless. Poor service attitude! 🤮

My kids were sleeping soundly in the stroller and my wife and I wanted to dine in and were looking for seats. An extremely rude staff (aunty) told us to leave our kids sleeping in the stroller outside the store and we were told to leave. Astonishing rude and bad service. 0 stars.

Staffs here are always quarreling internally.. if you are somebody who enjoy listening to conflict can come only..
Food is mediocre as compared to other outlet..my noodles are soak into the boiling water for a good 3-5mins while worker went ahead to take another order from customer..
Can also hear the worker throwing the bowls while washing..if you enjoy listening to ping ping piang piang and cling cling clang clang noises can come here only..
I think the hirer needs to do something about it..

Was longing forward to try their new menu item Lor-Mee but was disappointed as taste very bland. Abit regret to top up ingredients (liao) of Wu-Xiang as it’s very oily ;(
Giving 3 star as the ba-chor mee is still nice.

Food portion is quite substantial with a lot of ingredients, must say my favorite is the fried tofu skin which is very tasty although a little oily. Can get an accompanying hot tea for 0.70

Wow. I thought it is just my own experience. I feel the staff is very rude. The Vietnamese lady kept glaring at me, not once, not twice, but three times. Firstly the food is horrible. I patronise this shop because other eating outlets were full house during peak hours. The food is not really that cheap. If I am the only one complaining about the atrocious service attitude, then the problem lies with me. But when there are quite a number of negative feedback about bad service attitude rendered by your staff, then perhaps it is high time you should do some soul searching. If there is a negative star, I will definitely give it. Shame on you!

We ordered drinks and dry noodles, and everything was served promptly. The service was efficient, making it a great place if you’re in a hurry. The dry noodles were flavorful and satisfying, perfect for a quick bite. More seasoning required though. The fish cake was served hot, likely reheated, but still enjoyable. Overall, it’s a good spot for a fast meal or takeaway when you’re short on time.

Humble outlet. Great food for the price. The noodles was a little undercooked, but nonetheless not bad. Food is served promptly and efficiently, no fuss service.
The seating was a little small, so seats are limited, so beware.
Overall, worth for the price. Would come if I'm craving bcm and not looking for anything fancy.

The meal is the cheapest ($4.30 for fishball dry) I can find in a shopping centre. Compared to other branches, this is the best - the food and soup are nice to eat and tasty. The only grouse is lack of tables during meal times. Anyway, I will be back for more. 🤣

While the BCM isn't my favorite over here, the lor mee is surprisingly good! Thumbs up and will return for it. Ask for more chilli too, its flavorful.
