The usual Vietnamese menu, and then I saw the macaroni rice noodles, long rice noodles pipes like macaroni. The last time I had this type of noodle was at Lai Chi Kok Hunnan style noodle bar.

Here I ordered the Prawn macaroni rice noodles with Curry sauce as stated on the menu, however during ordering, I was told it was White curry sauce, as the Chinese is different. Although Satay sauce was also available I stuck with my original order of white curry sauce, just so that I can have a comparison to Satay King.

The food arrived in a fashionable bowl, and a separate bowl of white curry sauce.
I liked the generous pile of salted green spring onions, and the curled up prawns.
After eating the prawn, it reminded me of the plain prawns boiled in water, and it tastes good with the spring onions. As for the noodles, a bit chewy, some ends of it were still hard, and I would have preferred the holes to be bigger in the macaroni noodles so sauce cud get in. The white curry sauce is nothing compared to the taste at Satay King. The sauce is rather lumpy, and after tasting it, it all became clear, it is 70% dessicated coconut puree and ginger, but the ginger is not so strong. The taste was very milky and a little bit sickening, if it was spicier it would have been better, and if the noodles had bigger holes soaking more sauce, it would have tasted much better.
If I can have different noodles next time, I would want to try the satay sauce.
