Best wonton mee in Singapore
Wonton mee, or wanton noodles, is a dish of Cantonese origin, but the húntún only got their name in the ancient Tang dynasty of 618 to 907 CE. Traditionally served in a bowl of soup with egg noodles and Chinese broccoli, this dish now sees iterations across Asia, with Thai, Hong Kong, Singaporean, Malaysian, and even Filipino variations. To help you decide, here are the best wonton mee in Singapore.

1. Legend Wanton Mee
Helmed by ex-MasterChef Singapore finalist Aaron Wong, Legend Wanton Mee first opened in 2023 with snaking long queues. Prices are kept affordable, with the Wanton Mee Soup and Signature Dry Wanton Mee priced at $5.50 each. We got the former to try, featuring a bowl of thin, springy noodles topped with three pieces of wonton, fatty char siew, and gai lan. Our favourite ingredient was the pork belly char siew; it was tender, juicy, and not overly greasy or cloying. We were also impressed with the handmade wonton, which came with a generous amount of pork. Do note that the stall is located within Maddox Canteen Bar, an industrial canteen that’s a 14-minute walk from Redhill MRT Station.Â

2. Wanton Fu
We got to know of Wanton Fu as the eatery is a 15-minute walk from our office. It’s a must to get the Signature Wonton Fu Noodles Dry ($5.50) here, starring tender char siew and veggies atop noodles that are thicker than what you usually get elsewhere. What really stole our hearts, though, was the house-made chilli sauce that’s tangy and spicy. There’s also the Old-School Wanton Noodles Dry ($5.50) here, where you get thin mee kia noodles instead. Flavour-wise, it’s slightly sweet as the noodles are mixed with dark soya sauce and sesame oil.Â

3. Wen Kang Ji
Previously at Golden Mile Food Centre, popular wonton mee stall Wen Kang Ji now has several outlets in Singapore. When we visited back in 2021, there was an hour-long queue during the lunch rush. Though their Golden Mile Food Centre branch isn’t around anymore, you can still get the Signature Char Siew Wanton Noodle (from $6), featuring springy noodles topped with thick cuts of char siew, dumplings, veggies, and crispy pork lard. There’s also one in Jumbo ($8) if you’d like to go all out with a filling meal.Â

4. Laifaba Authentic Wood-Fired Roast & Noodles
Laifaba Authentic Wood-Fired Roast & Noodles has seen a couple of moves, from its original location within The Scarlet Hotel on Ann Siang, to a stall in the basement food court of Lucky Plaza, and now a standalone shop in Bukit Batok. They pride themselves on using only the freshest of quality ingredients, and a sauce mix made with more than 20 ingredients. They have also gained fame for their bu jian tian char siew: made with prized pork armpit meat, known for its tender, fatty, and slightly chewy texture. Their Signature Noodles ($12.80++) is a little pricey, but you get a hearty bowl of noodles, your choice of meat cut, an ajitama, dumplings, and veggies. The best part is you get to choose your preferred meat cut out of lean, fatty, and mixed.Â

5. Pin Xiang Wanton Mee
If you’re looking for Malaysian-style wonton mee that really hits the spot, try Pin Xiang Wanton Noodles. The stall is located in a quaint hawker centre in Toa Payoh and offers affordable noodle dishes that cost $4. The regular Wanton Noodles boast a super savoury dark soya sauce that will remind you of the wonton mee from across the border, and the other elements of the dish such as the char siew and wonton, are solid as well. Even better, they open at 4:30am!Â

Roast meat specialist Fei Fei Roasted Noodle serves up a mean plate of Wonton Noodles ($5) as well. While the char siew pieces are tender and melt-in-your-mouth, the sizable wonton is packed with a mix of pork and whole shrimp, and accented with the distinctive taste of dried sole fish.

Koung’s Wantan Mee has been in business for more than half a century, making quite a name for themselves as one of the best wonton mee stalls in Singapore. This old-school style of Wanton Noodle ($5) sells like hotcakes because of their handmade wonton, house-made chilli sauce, and six-hour-roasted char siew. If you prefer black sauce in your wonton mee, just let the staff know when you order!

8. Bei-Ing Wanton Mee
Bei-Ing Wanton Mee has operated at Roxy Square 1 for a good three decades or more. The stall has seen a facelift of menu and dishes, but the Premium Wanton Mee (from $8) is, at its heart, still a classic dumpling noodle. Help yourself to extra servings of pork lard at the counter, should you feel like you need more.

9. Chef Kang’s Noodle House

Chef Kang’s Noodle House is no stranger to fame. The venture by the Michelin-starred chef behind Chef Kang’s Cantonese Restaurant presents his take on the dumpling noodles. Each bowl of Noodle with Char Siew and Wanton is priced at $7, and comes with a serving of juicy, charcoal-blackened char siew that you could previously only try at his restaurant.
The wonton here is big, filled with black fungus and prawns, and comes in bowls of milky, slightly peppery, pork-based broth. You get to add your own chilli to the dish, and I’d recommend not skipping it. It’s a moreish blend of dried shrimp and other ingredients─eaten with the crisp lard cubes and QQ bamboo noodles, this is surely a great wonton mee.

10. Eng’s Char Siew Wantan Mee
Image credit: @fatspoting
Eng’s Char Siew Wantan Mee needs little introduction. The wonton noodles are served with its signature, extra spicy chilli sauce that comes in squeeze bottles on each table, so you can add as much, or as little, as you like. Family feuding aside, each bowl here is deceptively simple: house-made egg noodles, slightly sweet char siew, and some boiled stalks of vegetables, alongside small, peppery wonton that taste vaguely of sesame oil. It comes in two sizes, priced at $5.50, and $5.50, to which you then add lard and that aforementioned chilli sauce.

11. Kok Kee Wonton Mee

The lard-based chilli sauce, and the almost-soup-like gravy that each plate of Wonton Mee ($5.50) comes swimming in, is unquestionably what makes Kok Kee Wonton Noodle so special. They used to attract long queues when they were located at Lavender Food Centre, so fans were devastated when the food centre closed, and Kok Kee stopped operations. They’re now back, and although their char siew is still contentiously dry and stringy, all is forgiven when you get a mouthful of that gravy.

One of the two famous wonton mee stalls at Old Airport Road Food Centre is Cho Kee Noodle, which started operations from a pushcart back in the 1960s. The stall is still run by the second and third generations of the original founders. Their Wanton Noodle ($4.50/$5.50) features house-made, additive-free noodles, and comes presented in an old-school rooster bowl.

The other famous wonton noodle stall at Old Airport Road Food Centre is Hua Kee Hougang Famous Wan Ton Mee, situated right next to their competitor, and with a much longer history that dates back to the 30’s. Their egg noodles are no longer made in-house but outsourced and made to their exact specifications, supposedly with four times the amount of eggs as regular egg noodles.
Their Wanton Mee (price TBD) is finished with a fried shallot, lard, and chilli sauce topping, but the cherry on this cake is the Michelin Plate accolade they’ve received from the Michelin Guide Singapore.

There’s always a crowd at Parklane Zha Yun Tun Mee in Sunshine Plaza, known for their Fried Yun Tun Mee ($5.80/$6.80). Its super old school, Pontian-style wonton mee is tossed in dark soya sauce, with sambal and green chilli on the side, but what people come for is the fried wonton, although these are more wrapper than meat.

Wonton mee gets an upgrade at Bee Kee Wanton Noodle with the addition of truffle oil. You can always go for the Original Wanton Noodle ($4/$5), but the real star of the show is the Truffle Wanton Noodle ($7/$9). You will get the usual suspects of char siew, deep-fried and boiled wonton, and vegetables, tossed in earthy truffle oil, together with noodles that are thinner, flatter, and springier than your regular mee kia.

Soi 19 Thai Wanton Mee serves up affordable Thai-style wonton noodles. This rendition ($6.80) doesn’t have crab meat, but throws in some cured, sliced sausages, in addition to the usual wonton mee inclusions. It’s deceptively colourless, but packed full of flavour from lard oil, and fish sauce, to say the least.
