I haven't been up to Ang Mo Kio in a while, but I was up there today and had a minute during my lunch break to check out Ah Jie Hokkien Mee (721 Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 #01-2811), which has gotten some attention for its young proprietors. The noodles were decently smoky with a potent chili sauce to boot. But the crackling was fried too long and that taste ended up being distracting for me. In that sense, I'd rather go to one of the Shiok outlets instead.
I still had enough time and stomach space after that to check out Heng Ji Traditional Teochew Noodles around the corner (722 Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 #8). This bowl was served by a very friendly proprietor and had decently firm noodles. It was tossed in a sauce that was not as processed as places like the 85 Redhill chain, but it was also a bit sweet. So similar to the other stall above, I was happy to eat it all but would rather go elsewhere.
