| - [LOCATION] - 4/5
One of the many restaurants at New Kennedy Square. Just look out for the sign with a moustache logo, and the Prestotea banner.
[SERVICE] - 2/5
Average. We noted down our preferences on an order sheet and the server only had to bring the sheet to their kitchen.
[DÉCOR] - 4/5
Good lighting during the day, cozy at night, and booths are comfortable.
[FOOD QUALITY] - 2/5
Below average. We ordered two "Create Your Own Noodle Bowls." Price varies depending on the soup bases.
[ORDER]
- Create Your Own Noodle Bowl #1 had (1) Original Fish Soup Base (2) Yellow Tick Noodle (3) Vietnamese Sliced Pork Sausage & Preserved Egg - $9.50: soup tasted like water with MSG, noodles were nice and firm, pork sausage was standard, and preserved egg was just a poorly-cooked hard-boiled egg with a slightly runny yolk
- Create Your Own Noodle Bowl #2 had (1) Singapore Laksa Soup Base (2) Fresh Rice Noodle Ho Fun (3) Chef Papa Fresh Made Fish Puff & Beef Tripes - $8.99: soup was not creamy enough, noodles were soggy, fish puff was pleasantly spongey, beef tripe was standard and a little chewy.
[OVERALL] - 2/5
I would not recommend this place because the soup bases, a key component to soup noodle bowls, lacked their authentic flavours. Unfortunately, the menu also tried to incorporate too many cuisines (Chinese, Vietnamese, Singapore, Japanese, etc.) and resulted in very mediocre food as a whole.
