Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take on Blk 144, #01-223 Coffeeshop is that it offers substantial portions at very accessible price points, making it a strong contender for a value-for-money meal in the Choa Chu Kang area.

The Laksa, priced at $4-5, is frequently mentioned for its thick, flavorful gravy, though some note it leans towards a milky, curry-mee style rather than a traditional, shrimp-heavy laksa.

The Lor Mee also receives high praise, particularly for its thick, fragrant gravy, tender braised pork belly, and generous portions of ngor hiang.

We note that the 'xiao wan mian' (little bowl noodles) at $5 is also a large portion, though one reviewer found the noodles themselves to have a 'weird taste'.

Be prepared for a potentially hot environment and a long queue, especially during peak lunch hours.

The payment system requires ordering and paying at the drinks stall before heading to the noodle stall.

We think this spot is best for those seeking a hearty, affordable meal and are willing to overlook minor criticisms on authenticity for the sheer value and quantity.

It's a reliable neighborhood option, not a destination meal, but worth a visit if you're in the area and craving a robust bowl of Lor Mee or Laksa.

Portion is huge, ordered xiao wan mian at only $5. I personally don’t like the noodles used here. Has got the weird taste. Soup is okay, many ingredients used, even has got wanton inside. Long queue,…

★★★★George Teo· 2 years ago

At $4 a bowl, the quantity is huge. To me it's a hybrid between laksa n curry mee. For laksa, it lacks the depth n should have more dried shrimp. As for curry mee, it is too milky n thick. However, it…

Very nice Lor Mee in CCK area. The braised pork belly is very fragrant and tender. The portion of the sliced ngor hiang given was quite big. To me, the most important part of Lor Mee is the Lor. The L…
