Lai Mien

Today went to Comic Cafe to try out since the cab driver said that the food there was quite good. Indeed, the recommendation was right.

There is this China guy there doing lai mien (pull noodle, i.e.: hand made noodle). Really with skill and taste good. The noodle is pulled quite thinly, does not stick together and taste better than yellow noodle. However it is not as springy as those instant noodle, but that is good, at least not so much of chemical....

My Beef Noodle, taste good, not too thick, but still fill with taste. The beef is so tender...

The pulling performance:

EatinOut

I ordered marmite chicken rice, and hubby ordered sesame chicken rice. Taste kinda not bad. That was for lunch.

My marmite chicken, hand a bit shaky (phone camera too sensitive, no stabilizer)

For dinner, we ordered ala carte style instead. Had a kailan fried with salted fish, taufu with minced meat and century egg, pandan chicken and savoury sotong. Got too busy eating, not much pics.
