Don't sniff at these simple looking noodles because they're super "sedap"! 😋😋
Jeanette of @maryspastrylab took me to try her fave in-mall noodle joint: "Bakmi Permata Express" in Jakarta's Grand Indonesia Mall for brunch today. And I happily hoovered up every strand of my order with barely a pause.
The thick but very springy al dente noodles were truly flavourful after I emptied the humble looking packets of chilli sauce and pickled chilli padi in the bowl and gave everything a proper toss.
To be honest, I was so focused on the noodles that I didn't pay attention to the wantons and beefballs till the very end of my meal.
