🍜ig: @hooyeats🍜

After queuing for quite some time during the lunch hour madness, I managed to get the 🍜 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙖𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙚-𝙎𝙩𝙮𝙡𝙚 𝙍𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙣 [$9] in the smallest size. I would say that it was pretty good (I mean, I wouldn’t expect any less of noodles I paid this price for). The ‘ramen’ is somewhat like wanton mee: thin, springy and firm. I’m not typically a fan of chashu, but the slice that came with this bowl was really tender :) The part that Nicole and I liked the most was the potato-wrapped prawns—shrimp wrapped in a crisp, rosti-like potato. The way the potato strips coiled around the shrimp reminded me of the tornado potato sticks they sell in Korean street food markets 😍

🍲 Overall: Is it worth it? Well, it was a pretty tasty bowl of noodles. If you’re willing to spend a little more than usual on hawker food and queue for some time to see what all the hype is about, then you could give this a try. Otherwise, you could easily opt for cheaper options all around in the market. Not something I’d come back to try again but… I’m glad I did once, at the very least 🙂
