Tampoi Ah B Wanton Noodles (淡杯阿B全蛋云吞面), Upper Boon Keng Road
Been hearing about Ah B Wanton Noodles (#01-22, 5 Upper Boon Keng Road) lately so decided to check them out. They're located in the same coffeeshop as Huong Pho. I was thinking that what I had looked different from pictures I've seen online. It was only when I was 2/3 though that I realized that I didn't get any fried lard in my bowl!
Anyways, this was the medium sized white bowl mee kia with chilli. Decent tasting overall with some lardiness and a nice bit of heat from their chilli sauce. Pretty obvious that their noodles were of a higher quality than the run of the mill. Had a nice bite and wasn't starchy or clumped together. Didn't think it was outright impressive as texture went. I'm gonna go with a not bad for this one.
