WAN TON MEE

Published by Denise

Do you love wan tan mee? Tell us where the best in Singapore can be found!

First up, a little dumpling trivia – no matter how you spell it, Wan Tan, Wan Ton, or Won Ton, these yummy dumplings are delicious! 云吞 (yun tun) actually means swallowing of clouds in Chinese. And you can see why…

Hamish’s Recommendation: Hong Ji Mian Shi Jia, #01-05 Telok Blangah Market and Food Centre, Blk 79 Telok Blangah Road, Closed on Fridays, Open 7am till 7pm
Long queues can only mean one thing – gold at the end of the line! The noodles are awesome – thin, flat and transluscent.

Denise’s Recommendation: Pontian Wanton Mee, Holland Village food centre. It’s all about the noodles – super springy and never soggy, even after you take away.

Dear DEN-ISH duet, oh yes Denise , agree with you the Pontian wan tan mee has the super standard taste especially their crunchy mee. And it has a 60th history . Like 2 recommend one i have tried is at Hougang Plaza. Makan kaki-adeline

yes pontian wan ton mee is really good. You don’t get ‘jelak’ eating them. You have them at Bedok and hougang at kovan mrt. And yup its a chain. Joe

re wanton noodles, don’t completely agree with Denise’s raving about Pontian’s, its chilli sauce tastes like bottled stuff! I only go for its soup version. By the way, nobody makes really yummy wanton noodles these days! Tkvm for reading tis sms! Hv a nice day! Jennifer Quah.

hmmm dont take my word for it – try the wanton noodle at sengkang central kopi tiam – alight at buangkok mrt station – at the non air con kopi tiam, buangkok mrt kopi tiam city. u must try the dry one. and they not only served wanton noodles they have but other roasted dishes with soup and the name of the stall is “Roasted Delight” check it out-the wanton noodles is just “happening”

Best wanton, its BOON KEE, 01-36, Clementi Central foodcourt. Well their noodle is crunchy, their char siew is juicy,tender &thick. Their wanton melts in ur mouth,meat is tasty w smell of sesame oil but not over-powering but really juicy n their fried wanton is 2 die 4. Its only 12 for 2. Their green chilly is so crunchy n sambal is really blends well n the thick sauce Oh! Soso good. They hv even won n Award for FINE CULINARY SKILLS too. Its 2.50 & 3 onwards. I hv just polished off a bowl of it after my gym workout. YUMMY! Thx Peggy

I wl not describe the wanton mee to u but wl describe other events which clearly shows how good n popular the stall is. When they were at a coffee shop opposite their current location, the coffee shop was bustling with customers in the morning. Ever since they moved to the market opposite, the coffee shop became very quiet. Even the economy rice stall closed down. Where did all the customers go? Like bees to honey, they buzzed to the market where the stall has moved to. The market bustles with customers and activity when they are opened and is quiet when they are closed on Mondays. They only operate in the mornings and sell hundreds of bowls each morning. Some regulars also call her mobile to place order to avoid the wait. The stall is at Toa Payoh Lor 4 Blk 93.

D BEST WANTON MEE IS @ BLK 79 HAVELOCK RD COFFEE SHOP, D MEE IS VERY ‘Q’, D LADY BOSS IS VERY GENEROUS W D CHAR SIEW SHE’LL SLICE IT THICKLY & BEST OF ALL, IT COMES W SOME JUICY FATS ON IT, WHEN U BITE ON IT D AROMA & JUICE WILL SURROUND UR MOUTH & U FEEL ‘SHIOK’ & UR HEART LIGHTEN UP, & IT COST ONLY $2.50 ENOUGH QTY 2 FILL ANYONE W 65-70KG. USUALLY U’LL RETURNED W/FRIENDS 4 ANOTHER MEAL. STEVEN LEONG

the best wonton noodle that I have ever tasted is the stall at Toa Payoh Lor 4 revamped market. They have one of the best customer service considering a hawker stall + they operate only in the morning. Cheers! Charles.

Gary Tan the best wanton noodle is at 27 jln besar, corner shop called Wah Kee. It is original n traditional without chilli or tomato sauce. Brings back the happy childhood days whenever I take a bite at the noodle. Also you eat it in an old world charm setting. Old shophouses without a change since the 1960′s.:-)

Best of the Best Honourable Mentions:

stall at blk 79 telok blangah dr. The noodle is ‘kew’ n crunchy. It is well blenched into the spicy chillies n seasame oil. The char siex n ‘siu kau’ soup is really super. A pkt of deep fried pork cubes serves as dessert. Can take as much as u can. When noodle is left cool, the taste n texture remain the same . Trust me. Go n join the q. Tks my name is Karen

‘morning guys here’s a limerick from me:- WHAT ‘ONE TON’ OF MEE? THAT’S TOO MUCH FOR ME. I LIKE THE ‘CHAR SIEW’, ONLY IF IT’S EASY TO CHEW, BUT NOWADAYS THERE’RE TOO FEW!… NON WANTON LOVER:-@
