Chen Wei
Decent kolo mee overall. The subtle fragrance of shallot oil is somewhat masked by a tanginess that seems to come from the minced meat, likely from vinegar used in the cooking. It gives the meat an unusual tangy–savory profile. We’ve visited about a handful of times, and the noodles can be a little inconsistent—occasionally slightly overcooked. The char siew is the lean, drier type with a light marinade and very little char. We sometimes ask for extra chilli. The lady at the stall usually double checks if we’re sure, mentioning that it’s quite spicy. While the chilli does bring a good punch, it also carries a similar tanginess to the minced meat. Adding more chilli makes the bowl both spicier and noticeably more sour.

Liked the texture of the noodles. Somehow felt that the chilli given didn't go too well with the noodles.
Xin Yi
Not as tasty as some others I’ve tried and would have preferred if the noodles was bit more qq. But it’s okay.

Just a 2 star, didn't really like it. Average tasting kolo mee. ordered the $5 original. mee is abit al dente, still firm when bite on.

Delicious bowl of kolo mee. Springy noodles coated in tasty sauce, topped with minced meat, charsiew and spring onions. A marriage of wonderful flavours. They also have other items on their menu such as laksa, kolo mee with black sauce and more. Always add noodles because its just so great. Yummy!
