I’m starting this thread, because some of the old ones all got edmw verify-walled. Cant see a thing.

background, I ate 3 HKM for the last 24h. All I feel not good enuf. Even my usual Favourite Chuan HKM didn’t do well today.

any suggestions? I like it wet, moist, packed with wok hei. Rich zhup.
My other GO is Swee guan. But I gradually find his hkm overly cooked, a bit too nuah for my liking.
I cooked myself

But now I can't find the sauce at supermarket. Wonder if it is out of stock. However, lazada, fairprice online still selling

Once a while is ok I guess. I’m watching my BP at the same time. Just hope to find the right one that I can settle for

really sad that Chuan has “failed” me on 2 occasions in the past 1 month.
I tried Chuan HKM $9 a few months back.
Can say that it is above average.
Did not disappoint me but also did not stun me.

I guess every one have their holy grail for HKM.
Hope you can nail it one day and share with us.
I also want to find out as long as it is not in the Far West.

amk ah-jie

- Ah Jie HKM at AMK Central.

This is also the one I frequent the most (since it is relatively near my place :o ). I like their kind of thick zhup consistency, especially after it soaks in for tabao. The wok hei is very good, smoky even. Everything about the taste is just... rich. That's why I only have it once in a while, because jelak. :o But their chilli works well to cut through that, if you can handle the heat (VERY spicy). For me, a tiny dollop is enough to liven up the HKM.

The chilli is scary level for me.

I usually say no chili during ordering but the dude won’t remember.

then when buzzer ring, I will faster go to collect and hopefully ask the guy don’t put chili and usually fail, he put already.

When reach back table, I need to scoop out and the remaining chili left (10%) is just nice for me.

Looks like I regretted not going ah Jie on Friday. I must try again even if it takes one hour transport in the bus
