Despite the fact that this place is so very popular among the locals, we had only been here once before and my girl loved the tom yam hung ngang (the big bihun) a lot. That was why when she was home for the holidays, I made it a point to drop by so she could enjoy it again…
She did not really want the mee (noodles) though but I did not know what transpired in between her and her mum and in the end the latter ordered the same…
…for both of them. She enjoyed it though but the serving was too big and she finished everything but left some of the noodles behind.
As for me, I would only go for the clear soup…
…never mind whether it is mee or hung ngang…
…and of course, I had no problem at all licking the bowl clean. Hehehehehe!!!!
We also went back here several times in the morning but not for lunch or dinner. We were taking my father out those few days and on those morning, we would stop by here for the noodles. My father would stick steadfastly to their Foochow fried noodles…
…with a special request for slices of char siew to be added. I had it once myself and yes, it was very good but all the other times we went there, I had their tomato fried kway teow…
…which I really enjoyed a lot. I would say this one here is the one I like the most among all that I have had in town.
In the meantime, my niece, the one working in Singapore, came home on New Year’s Eve for the weekend and among the things that she got us from her recent travels to Japan, Korea and all over, she brought us this carrot cake…
…from Cedele, Singapore and true to its tagline, it was purely irresistible. I have never had carrot cake that even came near to this one, it was that good!!! Now I know what to ask her to get for me the next time she comes home. Anybody else from there heading this way too? Hehehehehe!!!!
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
