Mr Teh Tarik Eating House is located along Changi Road just beside the junction of Onan road. It is a eatery hard to miss as it is very prominent along the street if you were to travel along Changi Road towards Geylang Road. Mr Teh Tarik Eating House is a one stop place for all to try all sorts of food, such as western food, chicken rice, fried banana fritters and so on.

Good Points: The best part of the Wonton Mee was the taste of the sauce which was mixed together by the chef. The sauce is the important part of the whole dish as it gave taste to the noodles and everything in it. The spicyness was just right and the sauce was not too thick either making the taste too concentrated. Another aspect of eating Wonton Mee is that you have to mix the noodles with the sauce well in order to have a well mixed dish. Thats the interactive part of your meal where you mix the noodles and feel as if you are the chef. *LOL* Another great fact is that the price is rather affordable, infact any dish which basically costs $3.00 is considered to be rather cheap these days. So if you are on a budget, you could consider Wonton Mee.

Points to Improve: The eating house is usally packed on weekends in the evenings. Thus, it maybe difficult to get a seat of your choice. The service mode is self-service, due to the crowd, you may need to queue for up to 5-10mins for your drink, since there is only one drink stall in the eating house. Generally, it is like a coffeeshop, but with better toilet facilities and a cleaner environment.
