$12 Wanton Noodle Meal

[rocket]

LOL! It's the June holidays. Brought the family and some relatives overseas for holiday. And thanks to the SG50 $500 bonus for civil servants, some of my wife's relatives decided to treat us all to free entry to amusement parks and tourist attractions. My kids and wife were thanking PAP as they screamed on the roller-coaster rides. I was thanking PAP for free entry to some of the best art museums I ever visited. The wife and kids didn't appreciate art like I do.

$12 for a restaurant meal is reasonable in Singapore. If you cannot afford the prices, then stick to eating at coffee shops. You can even eat at the bus captains' canteen at the bus interchange if you really want to save more money. We are a First World country. So, expect to pay First World prices for good food.

Scare me ...tot u floating at jurong lake.

LOL! My financial situation is very stable. If I float facedown at Bedok Reservoir or Jurong Lake, a lot of sinkies have to commit suicide first.

An Ippudo ramen in Tokyo cost about 750 Japanese Yen, which works out to be around $8.00 ( including free green tea ) Having that in Singapore’s Mandarin Gallery would set you back double or even more .

Looks like Malaysian style prawn noodle soup!

kuro ramen has blackish oil from roasted garlic floating in the soup base, unlike malaysian prawn noodle soup which has rich reddish bisque-like soup base. i love both as both are ultra rich and unique in flavor, unlike plain old clear wanton soup.

I thought $8.30 for a bowl of wanton noodle is already expensive was susprised to find I have to pa $12.20 finally. I thought like in Hong Kong, tea comes with the noodle but was shock I have to pay. So together with wet towel and service tax and GST this bowl of wanton noodle is the most expensive one I've had.

Noodle is quite little

Taste is not bad lah but this is really expensive

Meals in Singapore are a major fucking ripoff.

Those puffs are prepared under unhygienic conditions. Why not eat $1.50 old chang kee puffs? They are quite delicious and it is a local company. Support sinkie company!!

agree. for 50 cents more, it's tummy-friendly and hardly considered a rip-off. a rip-off will be a meal that causes one to flush the gi tract on several runs.

Special ingredient in Old Junky curry puff.

extra crunchy and nutritious. the minah puff only offers a musky flavor, most likely personal touches from the macik mom. :p

White Rice, egg and BBQ sting ray.
