S$5 pork rib prawn noodles

my fridge threatening to fail on me so went to alexandra village (AV) to recce on a replacement if required.

hokkien street prawn noodles

walked through AV food centre & decided to give the hokkien street prawn noodles a try on 16.3.2016.

it’s passable but must say it was really very so so la.. nothing really to come back for…

the best was the soup, very tasty & intense & smooth, quite similar to the soup at why eat har which maybe a bit more lingering.

just the soup only maybe it’s better or equal to adam road noo cheng.

for the noodles, the chilli was quite poor, no comparison with why eat har or even adam road noo cheng.

the chilli given (2 photos up) was totally inadequate. i asked for more chilli & was given another scoop, so basically double the amount, and i had to add a little fish sauce (which i never do), then there was some live in the chilli.

there were 3 pork ribs. texture wise very good, taste wise maybe why eat har’s still better.

for S$5, in addition to the pork ribs, there were 3 miserable super tiny 1/2 prawns. just look at the prawns for adam road noo cheng $5 pork rib prawn noodles

i left 2/3 of the noodles uneaten, partly because i usually go on low carbs if i can help it.

but in the case of why eat har & adam road noo cheng, i alway finished all the noodles, or it’s a question of whether worthwhile carbs???

though the noodles were not downright poor, there’s really no much attraction to come back again.
