Their signature Prawn Noodle Soup ($5) comes in a bowl of either yellow mee, bee hoon, or a mix of both, generously garnished with toppings of your choice—juicy prawns, tender pork ribs, or intestines. The highlight is the prawn broth, which, according to online reviews, has a rich umami depth from hours of simmering. The fried pork lard also provides a nice textural contrast.

Don’t miss out on their Prawn Noodle Dry ($5.50), which features noodles tossed in a sweet, spicy, and savoury chilli sauce, topped with the usual array of garnishes. The dry version is served with a bowl of the aforementioned soup, which can be refilled once.
