Founded in the 60s, Koung’s Wanton Noodle is distinctively old school - one that uses ketchup as a component of its gravy base. This is one ultimate comfort food of mine. All ingredients except for the noodles are made in house. The noodles are slightly soggy but much less so than in the past which enables it to soak up much of the gravy. The made in-house char siew is wonderfully tender yet umami with its rim slightly charred. There’s also a good fat meat ratio. Of special mention is the wanton which are packed full of meaty goodness. Will be perfect if there’s some sole fish in it as well. I am not a fan of lard but the ones here are freshly fried and do not have any rancid smell, add some and elevate your dish to the next level.

Price: from $4 to $7 (pictured is the $6 more ingredients portion)
