Zhong Yu Yuan Wei Wanton Noodles

I believe many people have tried wanton noodles before at Tiong Bahru Food Court. The queue at this stall at times can be quite long. The stall sells two types of wanton noodles; normal and premium. For my visit, I ordered the normal wanton noodles. For the premium wanton noodles, the pork used to make the char siew was said to be of higher quality and used a different part of the pig.

I am satisfied with what I have gotten with a normal version. However, I am looking forward to a slightly more flavourful for its sauce. They put the chilli paste and the pickled green chillies on the side. It is a good idea, especially for those who did not want to add chilli paste then do not need to mix them together.

The egg noodles are not soggy after being mixed with the sauce and slowly eating it.

I liked the meat. It is something comparable to Chef Kang’s Noodle House and Weng Kang Ji Wanton Noodle char siew. It has a balance of lean and fat meat. However, the wantons are a little disappointed. Chef Kang’s wantons are better!

Bigmama Korean Restaurant

Address: 2 Kim Tian Rd, 169244, Singapore.

Friday’s night, after working for a day, I asked for a dinner at Tiong Bahru, Singapore. Bigmana Korean Restaurant is one of the recommended restaurants to try in Tiong Bahru based on the online bloggers.

Without hesitation, my friend joined in. We walked from the MRT station to the restaurant which took us about 10 minutes walk. There was no queue when we reached the restaurant, however, the main shop was full with people. According to my friend, the restaurant expanded and they are now taking over the next door as well.

It is ran by a native Korean, so I believe the quality of food will maintain. For two of us that night, we ordered two dishes to try.

Our table was full with food when it was served. We ordered the seafood pancake and the Teokbokki. It comes with side dishes as usual for a Korean restaurant.

The main dish of the night was our choice, Teokbokki which is one of the popular traditional Korean food which comes with rice cake noodle cooked with fish cakes, eggs, vegetables and instant noodle.

The chili broth is not spicy although it looks red. For normal people, it should be just alright. Just remember to turn off the fire after a while so it would not over-cooked.

The Buchu Jeon, the Korean pancake made with chives and shrimps. The waiter apologized us because they missed our order and later, realized it and came to inform us they would serve in short while. I did not notice it was missed order, however, the pancake should not take too long to serve.

Along with the side dishes, it made my day to the fullness. No doubts, Korean side dishes are always most satisfying me and I liked all of them most of the time when I visited any Korean restaurants.

The night wrapped up with a beautiful night view that I never seen before from this angle. If there is a chance, I would love to come here again for the food and the views. It is a good place for dating with the night views 🙂

감사하니다.
