Revisiting No. 25 Minced Meat Noodle

Kway Teow Special

I tried this bak chor mee shop a couple of years ago, but something looked different about the bowls that came out this morning. Indeed, only am I now realizing that they changed their recipe this year. One thing in particular that I was excited to see was the use of dry chili pepper flakes. Cool!

I'm not sure if this was on the menu previously, but they also had a "special" bowl above, which apparently was inspired by a customer who requested kway teow noodles without ketchup nor chili. Yes, it appealed to the minimalist in me, although it wasn't so different that I'd pay 60% more for it.

One other interesting thing was that they had a limited edition handmade "meatball-ception" available today. If you didn't get the Chris Nolan reference, it was basically a meatball within another meatball. There was broth inside there too, but it was a little sweet. I'll stick to their basic bowl without the top-up next time.
