Ok, I was at ABC market where there are 2 BCM stalls side by side. Being a typical Singaporean, I followed the queue. But my friends bought from the stall beside it, which has no queue.
The one with the purple bowl was mine and the yellow bowl was from the less famous stall. And I tasted the yellow bowl first and then mine... I felt a deep deep sense of regret with a slight tinge of frustration and a whole lot of disappointment. The winner was clear... YELLOW!...
Yellow:
First bite: Flavorful, zesty chili
After taste: herbal tasting mushrooms with great taste
Purple:
First bite: Huh...? did they forget to put sauce?
Second bite: Still no taste maybe because never mix properly. mix mix.
After thoughts: k*n, waste my money.... just noodles and chili
Conclusion:
Don't follow the crowd blindly, my friends who lives in the area told me that the other stall has been around much longer actually.
Well lesson learnt. Do let me know if you have any BCM recommendations around Singapore, I shall take it upon myself to go try all of them!

Personally, i like the one along Upper Thomson Road. Next to the famous Prata House. Diagonally opposite Thomson Plaza. It's a SHOP on its own specializing in BCM, and 小锅面.
It has the 古早味 which i like it very much. But got ppl say the "noodle taste" is a bit too strong. The soup is good too. Try the 炸水饺! Naaap! =)
a close source says the one at block 85 in Bedok is good.. While you are there, do have the BBQ seafood as well, Ssssedap!
Hmmm the 85 BCM is a different type of BCM.. the left store is the better one too... But this is the wet soupy BCM.....
The Upper Thomson one never try before. I will go and try myself...
there's that BCM stall along East Coast road, beside the dunno-open-until-what-time Hong Kong cafe..
the noodles are soaked in this black black sauce, quite the sedap!
has anyones figured out what TCM is?
hmm i don't know, not such a big fan of BCM myself.. the close source also says.. somewhere in Shenton Way, near the Channel 12 building (?) apparently there's a not bad BCM too.. but don't quote me.. aint no expert in this..
Hint* TCM is NOT Traditional Chinese Medicine
HMmmmmm TCMs…let me guess...
TIO CHUA MEE?? Shocked Noodle?
Frm,

BCM - the one opp FGA in Paradize food court is quite good.
TCM - Tua Chua Mee = Big snake noodle... for those who eat snake all the time
teochew mee
TCM = Teo Chew Mueh
