Apart from Wai Kee’s this is another famous place for noodles in Sham Shui Po, they are famous for noodles with dried shrimp roe sprinkled on top served with black ox tripe.

As well as the noodles they are famous for the pickled white radish too.

I am not fond of ox tripes so I ordered the noodles with beef tendons.

Soup:
Tasted like MSG soup!

Noodles with beef tendons sprinkled with prawn roe:

The noodles were lovely and soft and adhered lots of sauce and dried shrimp roes so it was delicious.
However there was lard in the mixture so I had to eat them fast because when they cooled down, you can smell the lard.
The soup that was included was useful for rinsing off the lard if you did not like it.
The beef tendons were soft and gelatinous and full of flavour.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Pickles:
I really loved chomping these chunky Chinese white radishes because they were lightly pickled and there was still some raw radish taste in it.
They were really refreshing and balanced out the lard from the noodles.
Although they were pickled with chili’s the radish was not spicy.
The jars of pickled Chinese white radishes were passed round the tables because they did not seem to have enough jars for every table.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
In my opinion not many places in Hong Kong serves noodles with shrimp roe for this price hence this place stands out because it offers it and does not taste too bad.
The last decent noodle shop I tried with dried shrimp roe was 楊記麵家 Yeung's Noodle in Wan Chai, which was also cheap.

My review @ Yeung’s

Next time I will come back and try the noodles in soy sauce.

Went there yesterday after a string of good publicy. Quite honestly, the soup was too salty, noodles were too tough and not crunchy, prawn dunplings were nothing special. Prawns roe was tasteless although plentiful. For the price they charge, you can have something far more superior and at much better value. Again, DO NOT listen to Celebrities and go by their photos on their walls. sad

lol

everybody said their 'sui jiao' is better but I decided to give their 'wan ton' a try tongue

We went there around 12pm on Labour Day, not too full, didn't need to wait for too long. TT and I both ordered the same dish 'Beef brisket ha zi lo min' and another bowl of 'wan ton'. The noodles was ok but the beef brisket was a bit tasteless sad

however, the 'wan ton' were great!!!! the prawns inside were fresh and the soup was very tasty!!!! We had to order another bowl of it after that tongue

nice meal and we got to meet the cute cat mad
