Back then when I was still a little kid, my dad always bought shrimp wontons back home. Together the wonton and a bowl of noodles would make a perfect simple yet tasty supper. I remember clearly the big round wonton having a superb al dente texture. However after my dad moved his office elsewhere, I haven't had any of these fabulous wontons anymore. Now then after I have grown up, suddenly missing the these wontons, I asked my dad where he got those wonderful wontons and he told me he bought the
It was about tea time when I arrived the shop. Looking from the outside, the shop has a simple but as well as a gorgeous setting. I was particularly caught by the gorgeous calligraphy of its sign at the entrance. It's not a big shop but it feels a very neat place to me.
I didn't go there over the lunch hours as I know there'd probably be lots of people queuing for lunch. Nonetheless, even if it's a non-busy hour, I still had to wait for a seat. Thankfully, soon enough, someone left and I had my seat. Merely having an afternoon bite, I ordered a bowl of wontons, only wontons, and it was served pretty soon.
Full of anticipation, I immediately had my first bite. I find the wonton skin is extraordinarily good. It was thin, and sort of al dente. It was such great texture. The fillings were flavorful and refreshing as well. The flavors lingered on my tongue, the sensation was just as the way I remember. Nevertheless, it felt like there was something missing about it and I figured that the whole wonton was not as al dente as I recalled despite the skin alone indeed was al dente. In my opinion, the filling didn't manage to give rise to such texture, and that is the missing key to what I recall in my childhood memories. Anyway, it might not taste as great as i remember, but it was indeed an absolutely stunning dish. What's terrific about it was that it still kept a fairly cheap price while other restaurants' prices are skyrocketing and most importantly is that it still kept its standard and quality.It was a pleasure to have finally visited this place to try their wontons myself. It did flood me with many childhood memories and perhaps that's the reason that I feel a connection to the place. I don't care if the waiters actually are not exactly really friendly, all it matters to me is its taste and a taste to bring me back to childhood memories is a bonus. It undeniably serves the best wontons in town, at least it does to me especially when it sparks up my memories and emotions.
