Customers Wait Up To 1.5 Hours For Shiok M’sian-Style Pork Noodles At Ipoh-Born Hawker’s ‘Zhu Rou Fen’ Stall

Since opening in March, this Potong Pasir kopitiam joint has been drawing long lines for its comforting zhu rou fen. The 34-year-old hawker has yet to inform his parents about his new venture, though.

Though it’s considered a staple in most coffeeshops in Malaysia, zhu rou fen (pork noodles in Mandarin) is somehow relatively under the radar here. This market gap inspired Ian Ooi, 34, an Ipoh-born Singapore PR, to open a stall specialising in this comforting dish.

Located in a comfy kopitiam at Tai Thong Crescent (on the same street as popular
Macpherson Minced Meat Noodles), Legacy Pork Noodles offers soup and dry versions of zhu rou fen, served with clear pork-based soup brimming with minced pork, meatballs and pork organs.
