Wanton Noodle With Roast Meat
Just happen to eat at this food stall in a coffee shop located at Ang Mo Kio, Street 43, Block 446. First tasting and I love it. After a lapse of a week or two, I went back there for the wanton noodle and was disappointed to find that the stall had moved. I asked around but could not get the answer. I hope someone knows where the stall have shifted to.
