I'm generally wary of tar pow-ing noodles home. It's common sense that most don't travel well especially when one is concerned with texture and these things inevitably soften or get soggy from the sauces/condensation in packaging. Once in a while, I hope against hope. Been wanting to try Hui Ji Fishball Noodles (輝記魚圓麵) (#02-44 Tiong Bahru Food Centre, 30 Seng Poh Road) for a while and that has only managed to happened during this HA when I didn't have a choice but to get them to go.
This was mee pok with some extra ingredients I added from their yong tau hu shelf. Didn't enjoy it much. The yong tau hu items were okay - just a little generic tasting so I didn't think there was much to write home about. What really bothered me was that the noodles had gotten too soft even for a short transit. Did not travel well at all. There's chilli inside but I also detected some sort of sweetness in the noodles.
What was nice though were the bits of fried lard. Darker brown than usual and very fragrant.
