So besotted was I with this bowl of noodles that I immediately returned the next morning for breakfast. Think pimped up bak chor mee with all the trimmings, except tenfold better. In lieu of kway teow(hu tieu), pleasurably chewy al-dente egg noodles laced with a smorgasbord of protein the likes of minced pork, liver, prawns and quail egg, as well as a scattering of fried shallots, young garlic shoots and spring onions, combined to create a chain reaction of flavours that resonated with all around the table. They served this with an insanely good chilli meat sauce on the side, which I spooned liberal amounts of over my noodles. And finally, that pork soup, packed with so much umami(and I highly suspect, lots of MSG), that it left me craving for seconds.

Taste: 4.5/5
