While Chilli King Wanton Mee’s most spicy wanton mee – Xiang Teh Hiam ($3.50) – may not look as intimidating as the classic Samyang Korean spicy noodles, it sure doesn’t fall behind in terms of heat. Mixed with a dollop of house-made chilli sauce, the al dente noodles were laced with minced up chilli, which will hit your taste buds instantaneously.
