Priced at only $2.50 a bowl, the noodles come with a generous serving of fishballs.

Singapore, August 19, 2009 - WE heard so much raves about this fishball noodles that we had to make a trip back to the hawker centre at Toa Payoh Lorong 5 after featuring a porridge stall at the same venue a few months ago.
We brought Account Manager Yang Ling of SPH's Interactive Business Unit with us. The self-confessed health nut, who swore by her daily intake of brown rice and healthy breads, admitted that she rarely go for yellow noodles but she still ordered a bowl of dry mee pok (flat noodles) to taste.
Priced at only $2.50 a bowl, the noodles at Song Kee Fishball Noodles come with a generous serving of fishballs and to our delight, even a meat ball! What is also unusual is that it also comes with a piece of tau pok which you will normally see at yong tau fu stall.
Yang Ling’s eyes lit up when she bit into a bouncy fishball which she described as “Q” which is “chewy” in Mandarin.
“The home-made fishballs are really good. And the meatball does not have the usual strong smell and it has a peppery taste which gives it some ‘kick’,” said Yang Ling, who ordered a non-spicy version.
My designer colleague Mike Teo from Presslines ordered a spicy version, with every strand of mee pok coated with the spicy sauce. The fried shallots and chili paste make every mouthful of noodles a joy to savour.
“This stall puts in lots of fried lard bits which make the noodles really drool-worthy,” added Yang Ling, temporarily throwing her health-consciousness to the wind.
The noodles were so tasty that it did not take us too long to polish it up.
We left the hawker centre with a slight regret that we did not order an up-sized version with more meat balls.
