Vinegary, pork-laden bak chor mee at Tiong Bahru Market — a hawker classic with real bite.
Tiong Bahru Bak Chor Mee is a hawker stall at Tiong Bahru Market & Food Centre, serving one of Singapore's most iconic local dishes — bak chor mee (minced pork noodles). The stall is known for its intensely flavoured vinegar-based sauce that coats springy mee pok noodles, topped with minced pork, sliced pork liver, meatballs, and crispy pork lard.It is a dish that rewards those who love bold, tangy flavours with a satisfying textural contrast in every mouthful. Diners can choose between the dry version — the crowd favourite — or a soupy alternative for those who prefer something milder. The stall also offers customisation for noodle type and level of vinegar and chilli.
Prices are very affordable, and the stall typically draws a steady queue during lunch, a sign of its enduring popularity among locals. For bak chor mee with attitude at Tiong Bahru Market, this stall is a must-try — tangy, porky, and absolutely addictive.

Mr. William
Noodles over cooked, upsize price is only for the noodles portion. Only the meatballs and liver is acceptable. …
Sophia Wu
we wanted to borrow a spoon and the owner of the stall was extremely rude. pretty much yelled at us to ask us to return the spoon immediately. other stall owners would definitely not act this way.
