The Master of Prawn Dishes
This iconic Singapore dish looks simple but is difficult to master. The secret lies in its prawn stock. Its richness of umami and flavour requires a good sambal chilli, and if you prefer, lime juice to cut it through. There’s a variety of dry and wet versions, and the balance of a mixture of yellow noodles, bee hoon, prawns and squid cooked with perfect timing. It is generally not a dish known for fine presentation, but Long Sen has its fans!
Try out their Prawn Mee soup as well. Each prawn mee chef have their own secret recipe in creating this iconic dish, and Long Sen’s version has a subtle prawn flavour that’s not too thick, but have you yearning for more.
