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!
Mun Wai

I've tried Guangdong Wan Ton Mee, have you?
by: Gabriel Tan

Ha! Finally, I made my way down to Maxwell Road Food Centre today. And yes, I tried the noodles from Guangdong Wan Ton Mee.

You're absolutely spot on, Mun Wai. It's a great recommendation:

1. I simply gorged on the noodles like a glutton. The texture is just great. And I loved the lingering flavour of the char siew (roasted pork) in the mouth.

2. The soup was a bit bland. But then again, I did not come here for the soup.

Here's a photo I took of the Wan Ton Noodles:
