Fish Noodle @ Koufu, Tanglin Halt

Fish Noodle @ Koufu, Tanglin Halt

The name of the stall Fish Noodle in the Koufu at Tanglin Halt (#01-08 Commonwealth View, 88 Tanglin Halt Road) was misleading because they don't do fish paste noodles nor are they exactly doing fish soup noodles as most of us know it. It's a Chinese stall selling noodles that have a variety to toppings permuted across a few broths.

Got a couple of bowls - one with the sour spicy (酸辣) broth ☝🏼and the other with their original broth 👇🏽. I prefer the former which was salty, sour and had a bit of heat with Sichuan peppercorn flavour. The latter didn't taste bad, I just didn't know what to make out of the flavour after the 酸辣 excitement. Noodles were almost gummy and soft but not soggy.

Toppings were decent. Braised pig intestines (肥肠) were tender and chewy. The fish they use have a light muddy taste and aren't batang as the pictures misled me to believe. As a whole, the noodles from this stall weren't so different from the stuff that one can find in Sichuan Alley.
