Hellooooo, I’m back from my week-long hiatus refreshed and raring to go! But first, let’s fill our hungry tummies, shall we?

Today, try the irresistable noodles at
NAM SENG NOODLE HOUSE

Nam Seng Noodle House (南生麵家) is a culinary institution that serves up delicious noodles. Started by grandma Madam Leong almost 50 years ago, you might remember its humble beginnings in 1957 at the former Catholic High School in Queen Street selling macaroni and chicken porridge. Two years later, you must remember the stall at the old National Library at Stamford Road where their signature dish, Wanton Mee attracted queues. After a brief fliratation with the Joo Chiat area, they are now finally at Far East Square and everything on the menu is still prepared and cooked the same way Grandma Leong has done over the last 50 years.
I recommend their signature dish, the traditional Wanton Noodles, served with succulent charsiu and home-made wanton in clear soup.
Another must try is their ever-popular Shrimp Dumpling in clear broth (shui gow) – hand-made and only in limted batches daily. You MUST get there early because they usually sell out within half an hour!

Other dishes to try are their seafood horfun or venison Hor Fun in black sauce (a great alternative to the usual beef hor fun).
Grandma Leong’s favourite creation is here Soya sauce chicken leg noodles, so it’s worth a try too.
If noodles aren’t your thing, they also serve up a mean fried rice, although this is a noodle house, so I’d most definitely go for their noodle dishes first!
