Fried Ban Mian - Dover Hawker Centre

Went to dover hawker centre on monday for lunch. There's quite alot of parking spaces even with the lunch crowd (not very crowded anyway). The boneless chicken rice there is supposed to be very famous - not bad but i like the ghim moh one better... But it's really cheap only 2 bucks and there is quite alot of meat.

Anyway, since i don't really like rice, i decided to try the ban mian (i like the mee hoon kuey cos i can use a spoon to eat it - and i won't need to use chopsticks cos my noodles will keep slipping out and splashing about). Ban Mian is one of my more favourite dishes to eat in a hawker centre cos i like how the noodles taste fresh and i think they don't add in preservatives (not like the yellow wax/colouring in the yellow noodles). And the soup is full of flavour cos they use ikan bilis for the soup base.

This stall has ban mian with a twist - they have 'Dry Ban Mian', which is actually the normal ban mian noodles, but then it's stir fried with cabbage, minced pork and crab sticks, along with a large helping of fried ikan bilis and shallots.

It's not too oily (not oozing with oil like most fried noodles) , no wok (tze char) taste and it's seasoned lightly with some sauce.

It comes with a bowl of soup (the same soup base as the normal soup ban mian) which has lots of dark green vegetables and a bit of minced pork.

Dried ban mian costs about $3 or $3.50 (i can't really rememver though)
