One of the Best Wanton Mee in Singapore

If you want to taste really good and authentic Cantonese styled wanton mee, then you must pay a visit to the 'Guandong Wanton Mee Stall' at Maxwell Road Hawker Centre.
Last Monday when I was there for breakfast at about 0730h, I had a plate of dried wanton noodles which was really good. What I find delicious was that the mee kia was a little springy and well mixed with a spicy sauce that was so frangrant and pleasing to the taste buds, I believe, because of the liberal use of good quality sesame oil.
The dish also comes with a generous helping of tasty, chunky slices of char siew, albeit a little burnt. But somehow the burnt barbecued pork blended well with the spicy mee kia, giving it a pleasing smoky textual. The wanton, however, was rather ordinary.
On the whole, I would give it a 3.5 on a scale of 5. I think that this stall is worth a visit if you want to try something that will remind you of the Cantonese styled wanton mee of days gone by.
Cheers!
