What I tried at Deng Wen Ji 鄧文记​

My family of four visited around 5.30pm on a Sunday evening and already, there was a crowd forming. We chose to sit outdoors as their indoor seating gets too close for comfort when it’s a full house. My first must-order dish here goes to the Hokkien Prawn Noodle (S$12 for regular, S$15 for large).

Hokkien Prawn Noodle
Deng Wen Ji’s Hokkien Mee is a crowd-pleaser. The noodles are springy and thoroughly coated in rich umami broth, packed with prawn and pork flavours. Additionally, their generous amount of eggs completely won me over.

Charcoal Claypot Rice at Deng Wen Ji
Now, for the Charcoal Claypot Rice (S$18). The star of the show, this classic clay pot rice is lovingly cooked over charcoal, resulting in a delightful smoky aroma that permeates the dish.
