This stall is always busy, expect a line for 10-20 minutes at lunch or dinner. But trust me, the wait is nothing compared to the deliciousness! I got the trio combo with all the meats: duck, roast pork, and char siew. The roasted meats was cooked to perfection over charcoal, super tender and juicy. The duck skin was slightly crisp but not greasy, and the roast pork had that amazing crackling sound when you bite into it. My absolute favorite was the char siew.

This place has good char siew and roast pork – seriously tender, juicy, and perfectly charred for that smoky taste . Bonus points for the super fast service – I went on a Sunday at noon and got my food in like 5 minutes!

No joke, this place has the BEST char siew and roast pork EVER. So good, it puts fancy restaurants to shame! The flavors are insane, and trust me, you gotta add a runny egg – it takes it to the next level. The chicken rice is on point too, everything is sooo moist and delicious.

Great cuts of meat! I’d read a bunch of reviews saying the quality had dropped and that there are better places out there, but I actually found it pretty good. The char siew was nicely “blackened,” juicy, and succulent. The portions are generous, with thick cuts of meat that aren’t flattened or thinly sliced like at many other spots. If you love glistening fats and don’t mind skipping the lean cuts, this place is for you. To me, it has the perfect balance and isn’t overly fatty.

I absolutely loved the Caramelized Char Siew Rice here! It’s become a favorite for a reason. The star of the dish is definitely the char siew itself. They use thick-cut slices of pork, which are then caramelized to perfection. The exterior is beautifully crisp, with a delightful sweetness that’s balanced by the savory meat.

But it’s not just the flavor that impresses – the texture is fantastic too. The char siew stays incredibly juicy and tender on the inside, with a satisfying bite.

Wow, the char siew in this rice dish was incredible! It looked amazing – glistening, sticky, and with a perfect amount of char. The first bite hit me with a complex flavor profile: sweet, smoky, and with a hint of savory piquancy. But the best part was the texture. The char siew had a generous amount of marbled fat, making it incredibly juicy and rich. This is definitely a flavorful and satisfying char siew rice experience!

By the way, the old airport hawker is closed for renovation till end 2024?

Laifabar offers a premium version of Wonton Mee that lives up to its slightly higher price tag. Here’s why it stands out:

Signature “Bu Jian Tian” Char Siew: The star of the show is undoubtedly their signature char siew. This melt-in-your-mouth delight features tender, moist, and fatty slices with a smoky flavor. Each bite bursts with deliciousness.

QQ Egg Noodles & Wontons: Laifabar pairs the char siew with perfectly cooked QQ (springy) egg noodles and a crispy wonton.

Flavorful Soup: Forget the standard light broth! Laifabar uses dried scallops in their soup, resulting in a rich and flavorful base that complements the rest of the dish.

Exceptional Quality: While not the cheapest option, Laifabar prioritizes quality ingredients and execution. All components of the dish are prepared with care.

Keep in mind: Laifabar is located in a slightly remote industrial area. However, for those seeking a top-tier Wonton Mee experience, the journey is well worth it! Their friendly service is another plus.
