Wang’s Noodle & Dumpling House (好面王)

Wangs Noodle

And right there, something like a food market, but this time much smaller than the 84th. A bit cleaner, though, and with longer opening hours. I then went to Wang’s and got Xiao Long Bao, dumplings in chili oil, and a Park Bun. The Xiao Long Bao (soap dumplings) weren’t bad, but once you’ve been … Read more

84 Marine Parade Central Market and Food Centre

84 Marine Food Centre

Old German Beerhouse on 11

Old German Beerhouse on 11

Okay, for the sake of completeness, to complete Soi 11 (apart from the fast food chains), I also went to the Old German Beerhouse (okay, I’ve been there before for a beer while watching football). I ordered the lamb shank in red wine sauce and a beer. I actually wanted to order the pork shank … Read more
