They have been initially at Block 87 Bedok North Street 4, simply behind Bedok 85, however shifted to Block 133 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 2.

The house owners utilise prawn mee broth within the dry model as effectively, so if you happen to style a stronger punch of seafood, it’s due to that extra contact! It’s tiny particulars that make a lot of a distinction.
