So I had no idea this place existed until a fellow Yelper told me about it, and went here with me as well. If you're asian, it's like eating at a hawker stall back in the day, it's very old school and it feels like a marketplace with potential. But 1) It's not a marketplace, it's a little restaurant and 2) It's in Sunnybank, not Malaysia.
I have to admit, it is hard to find the english translation of the chinese menu's they have out on the counter (they obviously have a huge chinese clientelle) but once you have a sneaky peak at the one page menu, you turn it around expecting there to be more... but there isn't.
I suspect that the noodle soups are something that they serve quite a bit at lunch time, but the dinner time crowd ordered off the selection on the menu. You order per piece, and you order what you feel like, so you could be paying anywhere from 80 cents to something over a dollar per item, depending on how hungry you are. Whilst this place looks promising, when you glance around, everyone is eating deep freid stuff out of paper bags (could you not serve things on plates?). I get that maybe they get a lot of takeaway (but all your tables seem to be full of people eating out of bags) and I get that maybe you want people to order and go so it's easy and faster than a usual sit down restaurant... but I would probably get some plates to serve your food on for people wanting to eat at your establishment. It's like eating fish and chips by the beach, but you're eating at a table out of a paper bag instead. Maybe it's a thing they're trying to start. Make haste, here is your bag kind sir (all in chinese of course).
However good the food may taste here, it's the eating out of a paper bag that doesn't really sit well with me. Maybe i'll just have to learn to get used to it? read more
