Lobster ramen is all the rage now, but somehow I still find myself coming back to the humble hawker prawn noodles which tastes like a million bucks but only costs $5.50. Yes, a long wait is expected but the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow comes in a glistening orange, with deshelled firm prawn meat and a tender pair of pork ribs that are too good to share. Couldn't finish my noodles cause I was too full from the ngoh Hiang I had while waiting (see next post), but I definitely finished every drop of soup there was left in the bowl.

Pro tip: comes after lunch hour to enjoy a thicker broth (probably from the longer hours of cooking) and to avoid the crazy long queues. If you're coming for breakfast, be sure to buy the ngoh Hiang from the coffee shop opposite to have while waiting.

River South (Hoe Nam) Prawn Noodles is located at 31 Tai Thong Crescent, minutes walk from Potong Pasir MRT.
