As restaurants and hawker stalls grapple with at least another month of closing off their premises to dine-in customers after 1 June and the ensuing revenue loss, those working from home are spoiled for choice when it comes to tapow-ing food. Aside from their usual offerings, some eateries have been creating convenient DIY kits for foodies who want to recreate the piping hot, freshly-cooked quality of their fave makan at home, with minimal effort. Now, you can “make” your own restaurant or cafe-quality pasta, pizza, waffles, and on the hawker front: wanton mee. Because it’s not always feasible to head down to your desired wanton mee hawker stall whenever intense cravings hit. Masking up, making the journey to the eatery and all that constant hand-sanitising is just exhausting. So it makes sense to stock up on at least a few portions of yummy mee to fish out of your freezer on a whim. Here are seven stalls that offer raw bundles of their signature noodles and dumplings that require just simple blanching and plating in the average home kitchen.
