I've never heard of doggy noodle until I saw this shop on OpenRice. Apparently it was a popular snack in the 60~70's among the housing estates. Intrigued by the funny name, I decided to stop by to try it when I had another appointment in Jordan as well. The shop was small with only a few small tables on the side of the street for dining. Besides doggy noodle, they also serve imitation shark fin soup made with roast duck as well as other snacks like fish balls and siu mai. I was actually more int
The shop was small with only a few small tables on the side of the street for dining. Besides doggy noodle, they also serve imitation shark fin soup made with roast duck as well as other snacks like fish balls and siu mai. I was actually more interested in the imitation shark fin soup as that is one of my favorite childhood snack but I haven't been able to find a good one since I've been back.
Doggy Noodle (S - $19) - the doggy noodles were shorter than your usual noodles with the length of an index finger probably. It looked like udon at first but it was a lot softer with no apparent flavor though. The broth was just alright and a bit murky. Besides the noodles, there were some pickled daikon radish, mushrooms, dried shrimps and green onions. I thought the noodles were quite bland by itself until I discovered the spicy pickled daikon radish on the table. I love spicy food so I didn't hesitate to add them into the noodles. What a difference it made! After adding the spicy radish (which was really spicy by the way), the noodles were now quite enjoyable to eat!
Roast Duck Imitation Shark Fin Soup (S - $19) - the imitation shark fin soup was really good as well with a strong flavor of roast duck! The texture was just right as it wasn't too thick which can be an issue with many street stalls nowadays to save on costs. While it was good, it didn't taste like the imitation shark fin soup I had back in the days however. I guess I will still have to continue my search for the perfect bowl of imitation shark fin soup.
Conclusion - the food here was good and unique while the prices were cheap and reasonable. I wanted to try their whole duck leg doused with the imitiation shark fin soup but it's only available after 5pm apparently.
