A sister of Laksa

Today, I'm going to introduce you to a sister of a Singapore delicacy 'Laksa'. Although, they might look alike but the ingredients used in both dishes and the taste of both dish were slightly different.

Let us proceed on to the step of photo viewing... :P

Introducing 'Curry Chicken Bee Hoon (Rice Vermicelli)'. Let me start off introducing the ingredients first. A bowl of 'Curry Chicken Bee Hoon' includes slices of chicken, potatoes, bean curd, bean sprouts and also Thick Bee Hoon. Basically just by taking a look at the ingredients used in both 'Laksa' and 'Curry Chicken Bee Hoon', you can easily spot the similarities between both dishes. The biggest difference in both dishes would be the soup base. As potatoes were added to the soup base to a bowl of 'Curry Chicken Bee Hoon', it have also reduce the spicy taste of the dish. Hence it was less spicy than the 'Laksa'. But basically the taste of the soup base was pretty much similar to the soup base of a bowl of 'Laksa' especially when the ingredients used to make the soup base of both dishes were similar and the only difference would be the proportion of the ingredients used to prepare the soup base. So for those who cannot stand spicy food, 'Curry Chicken Bee Hoon' would be a good alternative for the delicacy 'Laksa'.

So what is the name of the store that prepares the delicacy shown in this post?

The name of the stall would be 'Ah Heng Curry Chicken Bee Hoon Mee (亚王咖喱鸡米粉麺)'. It is located at one of the corners on the second floor of 'Hong Lim Market & Food Centre'.

Some information on 'Ah Heng Curry Chicken Bee Hoon Mee':

• Don't forget to add the chilli to the dish if you are a fan of spicy food.
• They were opened on late afternoons of Sundays so it shouldn't be that difficult for you to give this dish a good try.

Some information on 'Hong Lim Market & Food Centre':

• Besides for the dish that I had introduced in this post, some other delicacies that can be found in 'Hong Lim & Market Food Centre' includes the Duck Rice, Crayfish Ipoh Hor Fun, Fired Kway Teow, Fish Ball Noodles, etc...
• Most of the stores will only be opened during lunch hours and probably Mondays to Saturdays only. And some of stalls had a limited number of dishes that they can prepare each day so don't be too surprise by the fact that some stalls had already closed for the day even when you reach there at around 12 noon. Try harder next time.
