I went back to Geylang Bahru Hawker Centre tonight with one goal... comfort food! The kind that feels familiar and classic, the kind you can slurp. A bright yellow menu board pulled me toward Weng Fatt, and before I knew it I was in a neat little queue, watching steam curl out of the wok station made me excited about the food. Fifteen minutes isn’t short, but it’s also the kind of wait that builds appetite rather than frustration, especially when you can see each order being cooked fresh. Worth it.
My pick is the La La White Bee Hoon. I’ve got a soft spot for lala, and pairing those sweet little clams with a giant prawn is, in my favorite, a treat disguised as dinner. When the bowl landed, it looked like a bit messy but delicious... milky broth, silky egg strands, and a generous serving of white bee hoon. The first sip confirmed what the eyes already knew: the broth is subtle, clean, and just a touch seafood-sweet. That whispery egg softens the edges and makes the whole thing feel extra cozy without turning heavy.
Let’s talk seafood. The lala tasted fresh, plump, briny, and seafoody... exactly how I like them. The lone big prawn is so good as well: firm bounce, natural sweetness, and a good amount of that umami flavor. Speaking of noodles, the bee hoon held up well in the broth; soft but not soggy, with just enough structure to twirl around my chopsticks without breaking apart. Every few mouthfuls I’d catch a little lift from the spring onions... tiny pops of brightness that kept the bowl interesting to the end.
Value check: SGD 6.50. For fresh lala, a big prawn, and a bowl generous enough to slow me down mid-slurp, that’s a very good deal in today’s hawker landscape. It’s the sort of pricing that makes you nod a little to yourself like, “nice.”
The stall vibe added to the enjoyment. There’s a reassuring rhythm to Weng Fatt—tickets clipped, ladles moving, the clatter of plates being stacked and restacked. You scan that sun-yellow board, spot familiar Chinese-style staples, and feel the comfort of choice: there’s always another noodle, another hor fun, another “maybe next time” item in the lineup. I liked standing there, watching aunties and uncles collect their dinners, the whole lane humming along under the big industrial vents. Hawker theatre.
If I had to sum up the bowl in a phrase, it’s “gentle but satisfying.” The flavors don’t shout; they settle in. The lala brings sweetness, the prawn brings body, and the egg threads bring that homey, slightly luxe mouthfeel I crave on weeknights. It’s food that fills you up and calms you down at the same time.
Fifteen minutes of waiting for a bowl that warms you from the inside and leaves you planning your next order? Absolutely worth it. I’ll be back soon to try the other dishes—most likely one of the hor funs I kept eyeing while in line. For tonight though, La La White Bee Hoon did exactly what I needed: simple, nourishing, and quietly delicious. See you again, Weng Fatt.
