Mee Goreng in Singapore Looks Different !

Singapore's Mee Goreng


As you can see from the picture, the mee goreng (fried yellow noodles) is red in colour.. it's different cause, normally in malaysia, mee goreng are either black or brown in colour.. besides that..

the Singapore mee goreng is not very spicy and dry.. the taste is kinda ok but Malaysia's mamak mee goreng is still the best

Ehh the ketchup mee.. looks weird. Ermm I never like ketchup anyway. So I'll passed :p

Francis Ho said...

Weird but I can't recall coming across the one like this here when I was living (and eating) in Spore ...

from the pic it doesn't look particularly appetising; don't tell us that you actually ate this concotion?!!

Chen said...

looks like "mee merah" :D
cos manyak merah :D

gus said...

Wow, the noodle and plate has identical color. You sure you didn't eat the plate as well?

Just kidding Alicia. You must be pretty irritated right about now since almost everyone is skeptical about the mee goreng (or mee go wrong); can be eaten or not.

Sometimes a delicious dish don't really look that good, and delicious food is usually not good for you. But heck, we still eat it coz we want to! Cheers!

Btw, Singapore has unique everything. Even their wantan mee is unique. Their wantan mee is like this : Black sauce, soy sauce, chilli sauce / tomato sauce, noodles, wantan, charsiew and mix.

And when you order porridge, make sure you order the right type of porridge. There's canto porridge which is the thick brothy stuff we have in KL. There's another type called the Teochiew porridge which is basically rice with meat/fishballs/whatever then soup poured over it. Not everyone likes porridge like that.

Robin CHAN said...

hmmm.. they (indian mama) used the cheap tomato ketchup and add tons of it.. so all red red..

not my cup of joy though,, and the last time I eat this is years ago and I rem specifically I hate it.

but those that use sambal to fry the noodle is much better.. u should try it..
