It's a long distance to travel from Bukit Timah to Punggol, and if it has to be about food, it had better be good! Fortunately, one of the few restaurants open on a Sunday lunchtime at a rather sedate Punggol Settlement overlooking the Straits of Johore was House of White Bee Hoon.
What's the big deal about white bee hoon anyway? The secret is in the stock which is usually cooked with scrambled egg, spiced with seafood, usually prawns and clams. The bee hoon (rice vermicelli) is white but the stock is yellow and that is what makes it flavoursome.

This restaurant also has zichar and seafood to add to the noodles, and that made this meal with the Gouws all the more memorable. By 1 pm, almost all the tables were filled which is a testament to the restaurant's popularity. All of us agreed that the dishes were tasty, and a return to this outlet was something to look forward to.
