- (this outlet is CLOSED.
They have other outlets at NEX, Westgate, Capitol Piazza, Junction 8, Wisma Atria and Sembawang Shopping Centre.
The quality is hit and miss to be honest. When it’s good, it’s very good, but when it isn’t...)

food republic rentals are crazy high so what they charge is okay. at maxwell stall you can see the soup stock and they have a whole chicken boiling inside to favor the soup.
that said though, their Clementi outlet (a coffeeshop) also selling BCM for $5. but they put in more ingredients lol
Singapore is probably the best place in the world when it comes to Food. You can get to taste Indian, Malay, Chinese, English and a whole lot of other cuisines. Love your Vlogs, thnx for sharing.
For me it’s a good one-stop destination to experience what Asia has to offer!
the fish maw soup has strains of premium dried scallops(conpoy) you can see it when greyory takes a 2nd scope of the soup. value for money
song : 恰恰恰 Cha Cha Medley Song 夜來香
"Fish meat uhh meat fish paste ball meat fish cake..." hahaha... I always enjoy watching your channel!! Even though totals 1:46am in Melbourne Australia...
Thanks for the great and comprehensive review of BCM! Appreciate the informative and detailed narration into the dish, you're a blessing to any modern day Singapore foodie! Would appreciate more reviews of food court based stalls and places nearer the MRT which can be more accessible especially if you are brining a group around or people who don't like to trek and sweat it out for a good plate/bowl of grub. Many thanks!
Jon Teo places near the mrt can do but food court stalls very hard haha. There are a few which I’ve found but they are much fewer and expect to pay a premium! I’ll do a few but I expect people will be complaining saying “not good enough” or something to that effect haha!
Nice video. Thanks for showing. Love your video.
It's call onsen egg. Tamago = egg
My favorite: Da Lian Traditional Noodle, 395 Balestier Rd, Singapore 329798. I can eat here everyday when visiting Singapore.
Yes there was a period when I used to eat this every month too!
They have changed the name but is the same owner wearing glasses. He cooked the best mee pok among all the da lian stalls which were cooked by China worker. One of my favourite Mee Pok besides Sam Leong street Ah Ho.
Is this the one that shifted to Verdun street? Closed down already

i like my bak chor mee old school style with pork liver, pork balls and braised mushrooms. the yakitori chicken is so redundant.
hahaha, yeah i know. people complain about the yakitori stick all the time. it's his way of upselling the dish
Yakitori stick is really out of place for BCM , can see that Japanese factor does not fusion well . BTW the texture of noodle mattered big time over ingredient for certain group of people that like BCM .
Thank you for your wonderful recommendations. That is some kind of fusion food with the yakitori. Have you ever tried the traditional dry Mee pok from Song Brothers at Telok Blangah Crescent Food center? It's really authentic old school Mee pok. Cheers.
Song heng? I haven’t tried yet!
@@GregoryLeow Must try one of this days. Thanks
This place look good
0:47 : Thought there was an audio glitch but turns out it's just Greg glitching in reality. All's good.
They have closed down at this location. Do you know where they have shifted to?
According to their FB page, they have outlets at NEX, Westgate, Capitol Piazza, Junction 8, Wisma Atria and
Sembawang Shopping Centre. facebook.com/GuanMeePok/
What s the title of this cha cha song? I often hear it. But never know the title.
Here you go :) czcams.com/video/y36300IghRE/video.html
@@GregoryLeow Was going to ask too ( Shazam failed me earlier ) . i knew someone would ask,. Thks G
Gregory, fantastic food vlog!
Wow what kind of bak chor mee is this maybe I can try !!?????
a very unusual one haha! but it's good
Like your videos and music/songs. Very informative. Have your own style of presentation and hope you can work on your 吃相 :)
Long queue dose not necessarily means it's good. Popular dose not mean it's good too.
sorry, if you know what BCM all about. Dear Mr Leow, do you know what make a good BCM??
SJ FOO hi, a year or two ago, I did an in-depth study of bcm and tasted close to 46 bowls on singapore. Conclusion? There is a wide interpretation of what the dish is. I have my own standard but as you know that saying, one man’s meat... 😊
Tried this place for lunch today.
The Bak Chor Mee is excellent, but it continues to annoy me that flat noodles don't mix well with the rest of the ingredients, so you end up with a lot of meat and veggie bits at the bottom of the bowl after the noodles are gone.
I also tried the abelone, which was expensive and from a tin, but still very nice and flavourful, and certainly not the worst value-for-money dish I have had in my 6 days in Singapore.
Finally, I had the thick fish maw soup which was rich and filling, but I should have gotten something else instead, as I am sure there are more satisfying dishes available at VivoCity.
haha! most people use the spoon. they put the ingredients and noodles on it before putting it into their mouth.
Sorry I might be a little late to the show -- After your experimentation, what do you consider to be the best mee kia BCM in Singapore?
I've tried Guan and I liked it, but i find that it's a pity they don't offer a mee kia variant. Would be great if you can share more of a good mee kia BCM or more details of your 46 bowls experimentation :D
i'll do more bcm reviews soon. but try the taman jurong one. 58 bcm. it's one of my top 5 :)
Hi have you try hill street bcm?
yes! the Crawford one is still better than the Hong Lim one
How do you finish that much aiyah it seems like so much for one person, dod you fast for a day before you do this or just have a light meal?
Icbeoaneistari haha! Actually I have only one meal a day and I skip breakfast when I have to film an episode :)
What song was played at the start? (I’m not Chinese)
Ye lai Xiang (Cha Cha Cha)
Gregory Leow TA!
Prayers
how about the one at the kopitiam of changi airport t3? have you tried that? :)
Yes, it’s good if you’re in the area but not a top bcm for me
Hi, Have you ever tasted Ming Fa Bak chor mee? How much do you rate them??
hi, i've tasted them several times. The quality varies from outlet to outlet but I LOVE the outlet at Simpang Bedok. The woman doing it undercooks the meat just a bit so all the meat is juicy!
ming fa more famous for their fishball noodles,right?
they sell both bcm and fishball noodles. not sure which one is more famous
@@GregoryLeow hi Greg, Ming Fa at Simpang Bedok seems to have closed since 2 years ago… sadly
guan is not as good as phuay heng ,,I tot they were puay heng at wisma n was dissappointed. i prefer others like redhill etc.. guans is kind of tasteless tho
David Soh I haven’t tried guan’s in a few months, hopefully the standard hasn’t dropped
