For The Ones With A Bit More Budget
Take a break from the western inspired eateries and drop by Wah Kee here in Esplanade. They serve pretty decent prawn noodles with succulent prawns. Available in different sizes, the smallest bowl of prawn noodles cost about $12 while the biggest costing you about 1/3 of a hundred.
Prawns: In the biggest portion, the prawns served are HUGE. The flesh is pretty succulent as well.
Broth: This is the star of the dish. The soup is well spiced and sweetened, probably using the prawns.
Noodles: pretty decent. You can choose from three types noodle but I opted for a mix of yellow noodle and rice noodle.
Cost: $30 (before GST)
Personal grade: A-
It's a pity this lunch burned a hole in my wallet.
Absolutely delish! Come over to University Town- NUS to try this now!
The rice: Okay, the rice isn't the best out there. The portion is surprisingly little for the amount you have to pay.
The egg: The menu promises the egg to be cooked perfectly at 62 degree celcius. The yolk was slightly cooked, but the white was still runny. Run of the mill kind of egg, though.
The beef: The star of the dish, the Wagyu beef was absolutely amazing! The combination of both truffle oil and their own made sauce created a slight burnt peppery taste, which was light and savoury! Every bite had a consistently fatty texture that melts straight in your mouth! Very yummy! Do do do try it!
Price: $19.90 (after NUS student discount)
Personal grade: A- (the portion was a tad too small for the price)
