Koung's Wonton Mee: Another famous one!



For all the noodle lovers out there. This one's for you!

This is one of the five wanton noodle stores which was featured in a Straits Times article together with Foong Kee, Fei Fei and Sin Hoe Hin and one more which I can't remember. I had initially omitted it in my last wanton mee comparison run since it did not get rave reviews. But I thought that I should include it since it is so established.



This wonton mee is good for those who like their noodles simple. I have already declared my preference for dark sauce, juicy charsiew and crispy fried Sui Gao, so this one is not really on top of my list. The noodles were good, but does not have the carbo rush of Fei Fei's. The charsiew and the chilli sauce were competent but unremarkable. The one good thing about it is the liberal use of crispy pork lard. Overall a good plate of wanton mee but not something I would make another trip to go down to eat. 3.75/5

Conclusion

People who like their wanton mee simple may give it a higher rating.

this stall used to sell very very nice wanton mee but standard drops so much that my family dont bother to goes there anymore.
you can try to take away their soup and cook it longer at your placw. The soup and wanton will turn out very nice still.
Our family now goes to meiling street wanton stall. The stall sells very authentic wanton. Its $2 plus, very cheap but the wait can kill! On the avg, we always wait 1hr!

there's one good wanton mee at Kampong Arang, in the same coffeeshop as the Tanjong Rhu Pau. Most of the time sold out after lunch time.

i agree with you that the koung's wanton mee is nothing out of the ordinary. i prefer the lavendar food crt's, maybe because i have a sweet tooth. i also like the one at 12 rowell road.
