With its own unique taste, Yap Kee Wanton Noodles stands out from its competitors and leaves a lasting impression in its patrons. The type of noodles for the wanton noodles was selected for its specific taste. The wantons are made with great care and flavor. Often do I see wanton mee stalls simply outsource the Char Siew in their dishes, Yap Kee makes their own :D
Besides the good food, the experience of having a meal there is simply pleasant. The uncle selling the noodles is friendly and has a great sense of humor. Opposite the hawker center exists a HDB multi-storey carpark that hasdoubled its capacity at the time of this post, so finding parking is never an issue, even on weekends or public holidays. The hawker center is easily accessible by public transport as well.
To Note : you can order mee pok noodles for Wanton mee. It is especially effective at making the dish a lot more spicy if you like spicy food. Otherwise, you may want to order the plain Wanton mee dish to experience the rich original flavor of the noodles.
The only wonton noodle store that i would highly recommend
the noodles texture and taste are really something that i've never tasted before as most wonton noodles would really make you have this i do not want to eat it anymore kind of feeling but this stall doesn't and i ended up ordering another bowl as it was too good not have another bowl
Love the owner too as he is so friendly :)
Really good WTM. As good as a Michelin Bib Gourmand Ramen I've had in Fukuoka. �
Very nice wanton noodle. I like to eat wanton noodle and I would say the texture of Yap Kee noodle is among the best if not the best among most I have eaten in Singapore. :)
The special egg noodles are just the right thinness and cooked to optimum bounciness. The soy sauce with charsiew pork and blanched greens complements each other really nicely. Best of all, this stall uncle is super friendly and smiley to all customers. Highly recommend :D
A very good dish. Top notch for all the components that was made just for that 1 dish :)
Very nice Wanton Mee! Not too oily like Pontian Wanton Mee. Serving of Char Siew is generous too for $3. Uncle at stall is very friendly and will chat with the customers as they queue. Steady!
Nice wanton noodles liked by my family. Thumbs up :)
There is something about the taste of the gravy and the texture of the noodles that elevates Yap Kee above the others. Yum!
Great. Finally back in holland drive after 10mths
$5 portion in pictures with extra $1 dollar per dumpling. I know the media talk about the noodles being all egg noodles and amazing, but to me it's the wanton and dumplings that stood out! Noodles were very thin and Qq good just not the star.
I know they use the hot water and cold water technique to cook but the noodles should be warm not room temperature especially when I am eating there.
Char siew could be more roasted hence forgettable.
When visiting home, this is one of the first few places I will go to. It is one of my favourite, if not, my absolute favourite wanton noodle store in Singapore. Made in "JB style", the egg noodles are springy and perfectly al dente while bathed in a sauce blend. There are several versions they offer: red(just chilli + soy sauce + lard oil ), black red(chilli + sweet dark soy sauce + lard oil), white(just light soy sauce and lard oil). I tend to like the flavour more concentrated and ask for it to be drier. Each bowl of noodles is accompanied with little morsels of juicy wantons and joy.
Bought them for my mother to cook and she absolutely loved it. The chilli sauce was heavenly and the "special oil" meant for the noodles was delicious. My mother even went to ordered more subsequently for the neighbours. Personally for me, i love the shui jiao the most ... I will even dream of it when i sleep.
Ordered the frozen dumplings from their website and chose to pick up from the stall. Ordering and communication was easy. Dumplings were really “solid” - lots of ingredients packed in. Tasty and loved the crunchy water chestnut bits inside. Perfect for the quick home cooked meals!
On my top 3 wanton noodle places in Singapore.
The noodle is 100% egg noodle and doesn't have the alkali taste that most wanton noodles have. (which is why pickled green chilli is paired with wanton noodles, and in Hong Kong, white vinegar is offered as a condiment)
If you tell them "add vitamin" they will give you extra lard bits.
If I can choose, I will pick the noodles from this stall, the 不见天 char siew (armpit cut) from Fatty Cheong's and wantons from Crystal Jade to complete the ultimate wanton noodle.
As an aside - because hawker fare is meant to be cheap, and prawns aren't, hawker wanton noodles don't have ping pong ball sized wantons... Have to keep expectations realistic.
This is our new favourite wanton mee place after finally getting to try it! As some of the other reviews have stated, this really is the closest to JB wanton mee, and not an average one but comparable to the top ones! The boss’s brother is retired in JB but now supplies this stall with his noodles.
this is probably the closest version of the wanton noodle that you normally would find in across the crossway. Unlike the usually dark sauce wanton noodle you commonly find in Singapore. Over at Yap Kee, the sauce is white instead. the noodle used by them is also very different as compared to most shop in Singapore. apparently it made from 100% egg. Read about them later and realise they are related to some popular wanton noodle stalls in JB.
The noodle has a good texture to it! very springy and it does not have the alkeine taste to it. Char siew was average to, tasted better charsiew as compared to this. The wanton on the other hand was pretty decent.
Overall, this is a quite decent bowl of wanton noodle that resemble the one i usually find it JB.
