Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: Che Kitchen by 车老板 presents a mixed bag of culinary experiences, with some dishes shining brightly while others fall short.

We think the Hor Fun, particularly the pig stomach hor fun and the normal horfun, is a consistent highlight, frequently praised for its strong wok hei and excellent texture.

The $78 red grouper fish steamboat is also noted for its generous portion and value.

Other dishes like the laksa, grilled chicken, and long beans with dried shrimps receive positive mentions for freshness and flavour.

However, there are notable inconsistencies.

The fried big intestine can be overly seasoned and salty, and the beef tendon has been described as undercooked and chewy.

The eefu noodles, despite being a more expensive option, have been criticised for being bland and lacking flavour integration.

We'd recommend focusing on their noodle dishes, especially the various Hor Fun options, and the steamboat for a more reliable experience.

Best for those willing to navigate the menu for its standout dishes.

Verdict: A hit-or-miss experience; stick to the Hor Fun and steamboat for the best chance of a good meal.
