Soon Huat Lor Mee Laksa is a beloved Bukit Merah Central stall that offers the rare convenience of two iconic Singapore noodle soups in one spot. Their lor mee arrives with a robust, pork-forward braising sauce ladled over springy noodles, topped with braised pork belly, fried fish, and ngoh hiang pieces. The laksa, meanwhile, delivers that rich, coconutty gravy that Singaporeans crave on any given day.A standard bowl starts from around $4, with generous portions of ingredients that make every mouthful satisfying. The stall operates during breakfast and lunch hours, drawing a steady stream of regulars from the surrounding estate who appreciate a hearty, no-frills meal. Come early, as popular items can sell out before the afternoon rush subsides.
Whether you're team lor mee or team laksa, MakanSouth has the full details on Soon Huat's hours and latest menu. Check our listing before heading down to Bukit Merah Central for your next noodle fix.
