I have to admit that I’ve not tried the original version so comparison is futile. As with most beef noodle restaurants, you get to choose what cuts of meat you like in your dish. I can’t help but to feel like a kid in a candy store whenever I visit a beef noodle restaurant. The combination choices are endless! I went with my standard pick — combination of lean meat, lam (beef brisket) and tripe, with lai fun (thick rice noodle). I’m no beef noodle expert but I thought there was something amiss in the soup. It wasn’t as rich as I had hope, the offals were cooked alright. If I could just sum up my thoughts about this in two words, it would be lingering saltiness. Unlike the kid in a candy store, the excitement for this was short-lived.
