Carbonara is the usual kopitiam version with lots of cream, and this one was extremely creamy. Would probably be better to call it cream pasta. Noodles were slightly soft and slurpy, with each strand coated well in the cream sauce. The cream was not heavy, quite moderate, not one to make you feel jelak, though it did make the lips creamy too. Haha. Probably would taste even better if bacon was added, but they did not have bacon that day. Bacon adds umami taste. Mushrooms would also help to make it less plain and add some earthy bites. Still a delicious and filling plate of noodles.
