Reviews of Tang Kay Kee Fish Head Bee Hoon (Tze Char and Modern Lunch Bowls)

$74 for 4 dishes, taste is okay and fast serving. Recommending the sweet and sour pork.

Ordered the wat tan hor fun and the new beef rice bowl to take away. The hor fun has strong wok hei and is tasty. The hor fun is the thinner type. The gravy and the ingredients are nice. However, the gravy is too little especially for takeaways. The beef bowl is nice but the beef is a little too tough and chewy. The fried enoki which was given as a compliment is excellent. It is crispy and tasty.

Must try the Tomato egg, prawn paste chicken and the Sheng Mian, other than the fish head soup bee hoon (Signature). The portions are always enough with fresh ingredients (try the bean sprouts with pig intestines) and prepared with wok hey and real Cantonese flavours at the convenient location of Chinatown. Hawker culture ftw!

Hor Fun with onsen egg and battered enoki, Har Cheong Gai Bites. Have always been a big fan of Hor Fun and when I see this rendition of a Cze Char Bowl, I knew I had to try it. Everything Onsen Egg appears to elevate every dish by a higher level. Special mention to their Har Cheong Gai Bites which is like our own local version of the Japanese Tori Karaage, perfect finger/ sharing food!

Gonna go a bit wayward honest here regardless of all the raves. Youngsters reformatting a traditional Tze Char at its 3rd or 4th gen to keep up with times. The determination is always admirable and the creativity recommendable. Especially in difficult times. I was here for the braised pork belly. It wasn't available. Fine. Let's have the Gyudon. Picture presentation picture was exactly like a Gyudon place's offerings however you look at it without the deep fried enoki. However given the expectations, you will find no trace of hondashi or konbu. Even with the ample freshly cut sautéed yellow onions and runny egg topping over the Jasmine rice. So it is what is it. Japanese presentation of a Tze Char dish of Beef Mui Fan. Can use a bit more wok hei in my opinion, and even without the sake in Gyudon, you might wanna add depths to flavours with hua tiao. So as a fancy Tze Char with restaurant presentation it is quite palatable with tender beef slices and crunchy onion, bland sauce, eggs and rice, crispy enoki which is something like an odd add on. I hope you can improve in the wok hei department and don't let it stop you with adding real Japanese flavourings such as Hondashi, mirin, sake and other flavourings. You can improve. 4 stars for creativity and I will look forward to try your braised pork. Is it a Kakuni or its a Tong Bo Rou? Or its just off the mill? 4th Gen, you decide. Ganbatte 👍

Not bad, some dishes were good some not so. I like their Hor Fun, got wokhey and I also like that they use the thin type of hor fun. The fried pork liver was good too, very tender. Didn't like the fish head, the sauce don't seems to get into the fish, the fish very bland. The rest of the dishes pretty normal.

Located at Hong Lim market, an all time favourite for local dishes. This beef hor fun is $8 enough for one person, authentic, yummy and delicious 🤤👍🎉🔥

Egg is nicely cooked. Chicken is not greasy. Har chong gai bowl is only $6.50. Service is fast. But the sauce is too sour and rice was drowning in way too much sour sauce... see the picture. I didn't finish the rice. Would have been great without the sauce.

I love the Ha Cheong Gai chicken pieces. Every piece is evenly coated and fried. The Yang Chou fried rice is nicely done not too salty nor oily and the onsen egg added a nice touch to it.

One of the good Tze chars at Hong Lim Market. The sweet and sour pork had a very nice batter, and the prawn paste chicken was quite light tasting. It's a good meal.

G. L.

Beef Don $7 - Tender beef, runny omelette, delicious fried enoki as added toppings. Flavourful, fulfilling, must try. Hidden gem in Hong Lim market just beside Chinatown point (KFC exit). Not big portion, just nice. Highly recommended! 👍🏻 @tzecharbowls

Execellent food and can see the chef puts in alot of thought and heart while cooking. Highly recommend har jeong gai and cai po fried rice

Get the mixed hor fun if it’s your first time! Infused with lots of wok hei and generously filled with ingredients. The fried emoki mushroom added the perfect crunch to round off the softer textures of the dish. Will definitely return to try their fried rice.

What’s for lunch? Then we decide to go for comforting Tze Char Lunch Bowls from @tangkaykee, helmed by 2nd Gen Hawker. Their Mixed Hor Fun ($5) consist of pork and fish slices stirred fried with flat rice noodles in thick gravy and smoky flavours of wok hei. But who would have thought the addition of onsen egg and fried enoki mushroom will pair so well with Hor Fun

Y. L.

Amazing dry beef horfun with wokhei. I ordered the $15 plate for one pax which they adjusted to more beef and less noodle.

If you want to taste the real "wok hei", this is the right place! Everything is cook on the spot when you order the food, no short cuts, no precooked or mass cooking. Whether it is fried rice or noodles, the aroma is so good. But you must be prepared to wait because they only cook the food when you make the order.

Someone recommended that I try this stall since I'm always in the area. They only had the lunch menu when I went. My group tried the mui fan, hor fun and spicy pork rice with a shared side of prawn paste chicken. Hor fun comes with nice wokhei. Tasty. The fried mushroom side is really great even by itself. Will defo go very well with adult happy drinks. Spicy pork was not too spicy and is definitely manageable even for ppl with low tolerance for spicy stuff. Everything was cooked to order and the wait during lunch was manageable. I am happy with the meal but wouldnt mind if the dishes come with more gravy. The prawn paste was light and tasty. Will go back to try the other stuff.

Rice was too dry. Onsen egg was too undercooked. Very far from pseudo Japanese rice bowl that seems to be common now in hawker centres. This was experienced even before the weekday lunch crowd appeared. Won’t be back.

Tried this after watching them being featured on CNA "Belly of a nation" documentary. Yang Zhou fried rice (扬州炒饭) and beef sliced don taste good. Must go earlier to avoid peak hour queue time and crowd.

A. P.

Outstanding old school zi char that’s not easy to find these days.

O. C.

The Hor Fun was delicious, and the broth was just right, and not salty. We have fish, pork slice, vegetables being added. Do go early if you can before the lunch crowd starts to come in.

Ordered the fish head bee Hoon soup and honestly found it overrated by the media. The soup itself was pretty mediocre even though it's supposed to be good. Though I have to say, the soup is a lot thicker than other places but flavour wise is definitely not there. And it is pricey at $6 per bowl! Definitely can afford to give it a miss. Something I found interesting is that the fish head, because it was fried, had a little wok hei taste/smell which was transferred into the soup and I found that unique. That aside, nothing spectacular. That said, the service was fantastic. The service lady was very friendly and nice. Kudos for the service alone!

Tang Kay Kee Zichar, Hong Lim Food Centre: 4th Gen are the torch bearers of the old school traditional street food of Singapore. The new lunch bowls are $5.50 onwards. You can add toppings to your heart’s desire. Sliced fish horfun topped with onsen egg and fried enoki mushroom are a delight to look at and tasty to boot.

S. M.

Has some more traditional bee hoon and fried rice, as well as dons—but the dons are more Chinese zichar rice bowls with Japanese don influence, rather than Japanese dons per-se.

J. T.

One of my favourite places in Hong Lim, partially because of the friendly ladies manning the stall, and the queue here is not too long! Food wise, the fried rice is fresh and my personal favourite is the Har Cheong Gai bites!

Food was so good, my girl and I went back twice in a row! Debbie is awesome! Fried rice, sweet sour pork, and hor fun, and the bitter melon with beef was 🔥. Will come back one day!

Delicious snake head fish fillet fried wth hor fun n egg, or wth black bean n beehoon. Soup wth beehoon n the snake head fillet is also very good. Assortment of other tze char dishes can be ordered. Prices are above average because the fish fillet is expensive.

k. k.

The hor fun definitely has wok hei with it. Love the beef one as there is the black bean sauce on it. The hor fun can do with a thinner and bigger piece type of hor fun. The har cheong gai was cooked lovely!

fish beehoon is ok but like all of hong lim, the price is higher here than the rest of the other hawkers centres by 1-2 dollars for the same portion. auntie giving change is a little proud and rude

M. W.

Auntie taking orders is very friendly. Fish slice horfun was quite good. Not the best I've ever had but definitely decent. Wish there was more wok hei.
