La Historia
Originally a poor man's dish, sold by fishermen and farmers who used leftover noodles and lard. It's notoriously unhealthy but beloved by everyone in Singapore as a guilty pleasure.
Secreto Local
"Outram Park Fried Kway Teow at Hong Lim is the gold standard. It's slightly 'wetter' and creamier because of how they use the eggs. Expect a queue, but it's 100% worth it."
