"Feel like normal pork noodle but definitely won't feel disappointed because the portion is quite big. I can say the taste is above average."

"Very nice pork noodles! They have a choice of 五花肉 ( bacon) slices or the regular pork slices, organs or pork balls. Love that they topped their noodles with fried garlic! Made it crunchy and wangi. The soup is light and refreshing, quite different than other local pork noodle shops where its very heavy and gritty with tiny bits of pork leftover. Price was reasonable and food was served so quickly! Owner was very friendly and helped us with our orders."

"The noodle portion is huge. The mixed beef noodle is also alot of ingredient. The soup is just nice. Not overly salted or oily. The tase is ok but maybe a bit plain for others. The price of rm12 per bowl with such a huge portion and riched ingredient is reasonable."
