Another easily-recognisable name on this list, Eng Kee serves up excellent plates of Chicken Wings (price TBD).

Besides their famous chicken wings, Eng Kee is also known for their economic bee hoon store, which is often paired with ingredients such as otah, luncheon meat, and you guessed it, chicken wings.

Hokkien mee enthusiasts will undoubtedly be familiar with Original Simon Road Hokkien Mee, the popular stall whose original outlet can be found in Kovan. You can expect similar flavours at this Anchorvale Village Hawker Centre outlet, with a good amount of flavourful zhup, wok hei, and seafood ingredients in each plate of Fried Hokkien Mee (from $5). Don’t forget to mix in the duo of house-made chilli that accompanies each plate: a bright, sourish and spicy chilli that’s spiked with lime juice, as well as a sweeter, more mellow-flavoured sambal.
