One of my favorite dishes but good one ish hard to find. Some of them are really inconsistent. I tried to like Nam Sing at Old Airport but not really my preferred style.

I just ate most expensive hkm with my colleagues last night at KPO bar (somerset). $19 per plate (exclude gst + svc tax but can share 2-3 pax)

Shiok HKM is wayyyy below mediocre level. Tried once at their defunct Woodlands outlet, and never went back again。
I guess the shiok franchise expanded too hiong.
They are unable to ensure the quality of the HKM fried by their employees with different cooking skills.
The above complaint is pretty common on a FB group hunting for HKM.
I have not tried any of their outlet yet.
May do it one day when I RUN into them.

I assume that they follow the pattern of the fried rice franchise.
The quality for fried rice is easier to sustain if there is any.
If their pricing continues this way other ppl will eat cheaper hkm.

the fried rice selling point is cos its similar to DTF with nice thick pork chop, hkm is hkm le… nothing special

I am not sure whether that franchise is still surviving or doing well now.
Many of their stalls are gone.
There are some minor stalls of fried rice that followed.
I think the craze is OVER.

Is the Bedok Corner HKM still surviving? It is one of the few that has more bee hoon than yellow noodles.
