I am surprised that this shop does not have many reviews, despite they have many branches on the HK Island in Central, Western central and North Point.They are famous for $10 noodles with wonton.
I remembered that there was another branch on Wan Chai road, only because of the $10 promotion, but I never ventured in there because the weather was too hot or there were too many people inside. Anyway that store has now closed down, and the remaining branch in Wan Chai is this one.
As well as this one, there are also some other noodle shops beside it and the popular Nam Kee across the road.
I never noticed this place because it is hard to stop by and the pavement is so narrow that there is only enough space for one person.
This is last branch in HK that sell the noodles at $10 per bowl, the rest of the branches have raised their prices.
The prices at the other places are around $12 for a bowl of noodles, and there used to be eight branches on HK island, now 7 after the one in Wan Chai road shut down.
Basically the choice of noodles are vermicelli, ho fun and the wonton noodles.
It’s the usual Chinese noodle taste, nothing spectacular, the noodles just act as a filler.
Unless the broth makes the noodles taste good, or the noodles are different, there is nothing to mention in my point of view.
This is probably why there is always pots of chilli oil, red vinegar and fish sauce around for people to use.
However the wonton noodles here are ok, they are nice and soft not like elastic bands.
Their wontons are good!! They are very big and contain at least two intact prawns inside, some of them may not be de-gutted but as it only costs $10, you can’t really expect much.
The beef balls and pork balls (gung yuen) taste ok, same with the squid balls.
pure white squid balls
pork balls
The seaweed soup is quite nice, however the seaweed may contain sand.
Seaweed soup
The dace fishballs were ok, the texture is similar to the steamed beef balls found in dimsum.
There were lots of silvery and white bits in the dace ball, bones and fish scales, so it wasn’t that edible to me, but apart from that it does taste nice.
Dace fishballs and fish skin dumplings
The dumplings wrapped in fish skin were good too, slightly oily inside. It would be good if you could get fried dumplings wrapped in fish skin, I reckon that would taste quite nice, and the fish skin would taste nicer after frying.
They also do fish cake slices with noodles sprinkled with plenty of spring onions.
