3 noodle options
Store was only opened for 4 days at time of visit, store aunties were quite friendly. Situated at the front-facing edge of timbre+
The yellow noodles was slightly sticking together and fragmented (mildly lumpy) but the chilli and pork rinds oil made the dish much more palatable. The broth was very flavourful and salty without the noodles but rich in prawny goodness.

🍧 🍓 🍨
Korean Strawberry: very sweet by the time you finish the whole scoop but nice flavour
Lychee Raspberry: very creamy but less sweet and bland-er after you’ve tried the first. Refreshing vibe overall but not sure why I tasted more coconut instead
Slight fruity fragrance
Only gripe is the straw design, the triple hollow sieve generates loads of bubbles 🫧 when the tea is passed through creating literal bubbles instead of tapioca bubbles.
Not sure is the store named Kung Fu Fish or Fat Cat Grilled Fish 肥猫烤鱼 as on the stamp card (collect 12 stamps for a free Half fish set).
Mala flavour 麻辣 口味, set comes with rice and Chuka wakame (seasoned sesame seaweed salad) ちゅかわかめ which is surprising for a Chinese 烤鱼 store.
Add $1 for sides (like Black fungus)
Add $0.80 to takeaway.
Very fragrant mala sauce made complex by the spices used.
Great variety of ingredients for the price, with 2 scallops, 2 artificial abalone slices, meatballs, tender lean meat, pork liver, minced pork.
Happily asked for more chilli and black vinegar on my Mee Sua, creating a amalgam of spicy, salty and sourish shiokness with an occasional crunch of crispy ikan bilis.
Add some frothy soup to encourage further mingling if the noodles have clumped up from being encased too long in their carrier tray.
Personally would prefer the soup to have less minced pork as the specks can make my throat slightly scratchy.
The food displayed in the open tend to become less fresh where the mushrooms 🍄 become mushy as they soak in the water and raw meats 🥩 smell a little close to dinner time.
Perhaps they don’t have to store the mushrooms in bowls of water.
They nailed the sauce base and the frying imparted a slight char fragrance to the stir-fry.
Good portions for the price.
+ $0.30 to takeaway 🥡
+ Service charge + GST = Total $15.33
Osaka ohsho original gyoza (4 🥟)
Hojicha (warm)
Selection of a range of 6 or more sides and drinks available for the lunch set.
Felt the noodles was slightly undercooked this round and the broth wasn’t hot enough, just barely warm.
Burpple 1-for-1 deal for tea only allows for 3 choices in the classic tea section between:
Green tea 🍵 (right: slightly bland for the iced version)
Earl Grey tea (left: hint of citrusy fragrance)
English Breakfast tea
Sugar-free, light and refreshing but probably try the coffee if you’re looking for something stronger and more exciting ☕️
No extra service charge it seems from the receipt.
The pasta was still too undercooked this round. Less sauce given but the amount of ingredients was pretty worth it about 3 or more pieces each of prawns, mussels and sotong rings.
Careful when chewing on the fleshy squid rings- the lining can be difficult to sever and may become a choking hazard if you didn’t choose to cut them up before swallowing the ring whole.
Personal preference for the noodles than the rice version.
It feels like I would want thickset chunks of meat over a rice dish instead of a pittance of minced protein. However when sprinkled over noodles, it is able to absorb the sweet garlicky soy and scatter and coat every oodle-ly strand marvellously.
Perhaps my expectations for a rice dish is slightly different from the norm.
Medium ($6.80), Large ($8.10)
Grape Pearls Topping +$1.90
I got the normal sugar level and turns out it was slightly sweet. Also left my drink in the fridge for too long and the centre hardened so I couldn’t get to enjoy the original texture of the pearls.
Will try to enjoy it on the spot the next time.
The best Wanton Mee I’ve ever had. Looks like the owner put in a lot of thought into each component of the dish.
