Our usual post-French class hunger led us to Noodles Your Way, a quiet joint tucked down low in World Square, which is an unusually bustling shopping spot at 9pm on a Tuesday. Following the advice of our favourite man of the land Bear Grylls, we literally ran here to warm ourselves up from the chilly Winter's eve. Hence, we were looking forward to a fast and hearty meal, and boy, did NYW deliver !
The menu is simple and not too overwhelming but there are enough choices to make it a difficult one. Looking around, this is a place for the noodle-serious so we get the feeling that it must be good. We avoid the bain marie options and settle to share the Braised Beef Noodle Soup and the Pork and Soy Egg Noodles ($9.80 each). Before we could start making blog notes, our steaming bowls had arrived.
Given the tender meat and tasty broth, it's no wonder the beef noodles come recommended. If this is the chef's standard, we'll be back to try all of his suggestions ! The saucy pork noodles are delicious, so much so, we almost forgot to add our favourite condiment, vinegar, but once we did, our tastebuds were in over-drive. Though we were stuffed by the end of our feast, we were already planning on next time's order - Pork & Spicy Paste Dry Noodles as well as Egg Dumpling & Glass Noodle Hot Pot...bring it on :)
It's easy to get duped into the late night bright lights and often over-priced fare in nearby Chinatown but this hidden gem opens till 10pm (last orders at 9:30pm) and is right up there in quality with the likes of it's upstairs neighbour Din Tai Fung.
So, heads down, chopsticks up...and slurp away !
