Mak Mun Kee Noodle House 麥文記麵家

This is the best wanton noodles I have tasted. Seriously. The noodles may seem a little hard at first but let it soak for a while and let the soup cool a little (unless you wanna scald your own tongue) and it will be just nice. The wantons are flavourful and the shrimps are fresh. However, I'm slightly allergic to shrimps so I kinda OD-ed on shrimps after ordering wanton soup (sans noodles) once. The clear soup broth has no ghee taste which is a major winning point for me. Their beef brisket noodles are fantastic as well. The vegetables (kailan or choi sum) are fresh and crunchy and it's a rare dose of fibre in protein/carbs rich HK. The oyster sauce is supposed to be something to shout about and it's charged separately.

Yay or Nay? Yay, for sure!
But? The servings are pretty small so it's not really value for money.
To Try? Wanton noodles, kailan, beef brisket
Address? 51 Parkes Street. Remember it's Mak Mun Kee (not the neighbouring Mak's Noodles which I think is not as good)
Nearest MTR? Jordan Exit C2
