I have always been surprised by people who spend hundreds of dollars eating noodles and congee in hotels. If you want a hot bowl of noodle with wonton, shui gao or beef brisket, why not head for Wah Lam? It is a hidden gem in the shabby Wan Chai district. I went there last month and was greeted by a friendly "For Kai" (waiter) and a big, rewarding bowl of wonton noodle. The noodle is good, fresh, and slightly bouncy while the soup base is not MSG-formulated. Beef brisket and fish balls are
If you want a hot bowl of noodle with wonton, shui gao or beef brisket, why not head for Wah Lam? It is a hidden gem in the shabby Wan Chai district. I went there last month and was greeted by a friendly "For Kai" (waiter) and a big, rewarding bowl of wonton noodle. The noodle is good, fresh, and slightly bouncy while the soup base is not MSG-formulated. Beef brisket and fish balls are also good. While the price is a bit higher than other high street noodle shops that are selling dirt cheap wonton noodle, Wah Lam offers you Cantonese noodle cooked (though not necessarily served) with a heart. No wonder this restaurant has so many fans of Wah Lam.
To decorate this restaurant into a fake posh or up-market eat-out would do injustice to its banal yet friendly atmosphere. So next time don't eat wonton noodle in hotels for a rip-off price. A noodle from this bland but hearty noodle shop would remind you of how Cantonese noodle should be cooked and served.
