Beloved 40+yo Teochew fishball noodle stall closing for good in July
Toa Payoh residents, let me hold your hand as I say this — Hui Ming Mushroom Noodle located in Blk 8 Toa Payoh Lor 7 coffeeshop will be shuttering its business permanently in July 2025 after 40+ years.
According to a netizen whose family has been patronising this stall for 4 generations, the stall's closing can be attributed to the uncle's old age. His son has been helping his parents out at the stall, but sadly isn't interested in running the business without them.
Hui Ming Fishball Mushroom Noodle is known for their old-school Teochew-style noodle dishes, with a short and sweet menu of just 3 dishes, all priced at S$4.50 and S$6 for a small and big bowl respectively.
Their signature Fishball Minced Meat Noodle is what gets customers going back time and time again, even after moving out of the neighbourhood. Whether your choice of noodle is mee pok or mee kia, patrons love that it's packed with a fragrant and spicy flavour that instantly makes you crave another bowl.
The next dish is the Fishball Soup, forgoing the classic mee options for a velvety, silky kway teow instead. You can also opt for just the Fishball Soup for a no-carb, high-protein meal. Their fishballs are said to be QQ and delicious, as expected of a stall that specialises in them.
When I say that Hui Ming Fishball Mushroom Noodle has a crowd of loyal customers, I'm not exaggerating. A quick scroll through Facebook comments and Google reviews made me realise that this stall has seen the same familiar faces show up every weekend, and watched generations of families grow up.
It truly is a long-standing, cherished gem in Toa Payoh.
There's no point dwelling on the future, though. Hui Ming Fishball Mushroom Noodle is still open for the next 2 and a half months, so there's still time to head down and stuff yourself with a lifetime's worth of nostalgic, old-school fishball noodles.
