My sister mentioned that there was a famous dim sum stall at Chinatown Complex Hawker Centre that served only six types of dim sum! I wanted to check it out but it was closed on Mondays and Tuesdays!
A stall next door appeared to be drawing a crowd and it seemed to have started business recently. Chef Leung's Authentic Hand-milled Rice Noodle Roll - I am not a huge fan for chee cheong fun but Alex is hence, this shall be his breakfast, and I shall take a bite for the sake of review.
Took the pager and wait for it to beep - aside from cheong fun (original, pork, char siew, prawn and tuna), congee (pork & century egg and, seafood) is also available. Strange to see tuna in chee cheong fun and I figured original is plain. Wait was almost 25 minutes!
Our serving of authentic hand milled rice noodle roll (prawn); at S$4.50, it's not exactly cheap for hawker fare although its appearance was aligned with those chee cheong fun served in dim sum restaurants. What I was more apprehensive with was the light sauce; would it be appetising enough? My taste buds told me it was just plain, old, light soya sauce mixed with sesame oil, which means flavor wise; it didn't impress and lesser so if not for the shallots. Prawns wise, there were six pieces of decent size. To be fair, the handmade rice rolls were smooth and could have benefited from a more favourful sauce.
