Located in the same coffeeshop as 6th Avenue Wanton Noodle is this Original Jalan Tua Kong 132 Mee Pok that is managed by two guys.

The name of this stall baffles me as it is a combination of two very famous Teochew Mee Pok stalls like 132 Mee Pok from Marine Terrace and Jalan Tua Kong Lau Lim Mee Pok from Simpang Bedok. 

I know of the story between 132 and Lau Lim but what about this stall which claims to be the "Original"? Is this stall hitching a ride on their names or simply a disgruntled sibling/relative/ex-worker striking out on his own?

In all honesty, I have not eaten both 132 or Lau Lim before hence, I cannot compare who does it better. However, this "Original" Mee Pok is the best that I have tasted so far.

Simply place your order with the guy outside the stall and make your payment at the same time. You will then be given a beeping device to collect your noodles once it is ready.

My $4 Mee Pok came with two bouncy fishballs, a prawn, some slices of fishcake, pork slices and bak chor (minced pork).

It is not hard to tell that the ingredients used are really fresh but what wow-ed me the most were the al dente Mee Pok glistening in the fantastic sauce.

Do not be taken in by the pale looking noodles but the explosion of flavors in your mouth is really shiok. The chili sauce, especially packs a punch. This is so good I prefer it over the one Michelin-Starred Tai Hwa Pork Noodles.

Apart from selling Fishball Bak Chor Mee Pok, they also sell Abalone Noodle ($10) and Pacific Clams Noodle ($6).

Whether this is the "Original" or a spin-off is not important but what matters most is that the taste is good and it is very accessible to me.
