I came in here because the newly opened Dagu Rice Noodle was jam packed and my boyfriend wanted to get noodles. This place had 2 other tables already eating when we walked in around 2pm on boxing day. Which seemed really slow compared to what we saw at Dagu but that's probably because Dagu is brand new and there's a hype. Anyways we walked in were greeted and seated immediately.
The menu is really small and limited. We also never had the rice noodle before especially this style where they bring you the raw ingredients and you have to put it into the bowl. I got the concept from all the instagram posts beforehand but didn't know the exact steps on what should go in first. Basically we ticked off on the menu what we wanted gave the sheet to the waiter. 2 seconds later they come out with our raw ingredients. Then we had to wait a bit for the soup, when it did come out the waiters were running it to us and the soup was still bubbling and hot. So I thought ok... I guess we start putting everything in. I put the noodles in first because I didn't know any better then put my ingredients my boyfriend decided to do the reverse. Neither of us really knew what to do... There were no instructions given to us at anytime.
(only after reading other people's reviews did I learn the "correct" way to put the ingredients in-why the hell isn't that written somewhere!?)
The soup was incredibly salty I was dying of thirst afterwards but it was tasty because of the salty. They only gave me 3 slices of meat but a shit ton of noodles. I was definitely full afterwards but I felt like they could have given less noodle and more meat.
It was a decent place to stop into but it was not amazing.Unless you know what you are doing you may not enjoy it. I'm not too sure if I liked my meal because it was really good or it was damn cold outside and I was HANGRY for warm food.
