Everyday Big Prawn Noodle (天天大虾面) @ Sin Ming Road in Singapore

I would have indulged in Sin Ming Roti Prata Coin at this coffeeshop but the stall had closed for the day. Hungry and tired, we checked out the rest of the stalls and eventually settled with a new establishment; Everyday Big Prawn Noodle.

While I have no issue with having prata, I was adamant not to have any carbohydrates for my prawn noodle! So, I asked if it is possible to have just prawn soup, and no noodle! And the answer was "can"! Phew....

Bean Sprout Fritter - honestly, this was your typical prawn cracker and I was scratching my head to the use of bean sprout in the name, since it kind of cheapen the snack as compared to prawn, and this cost S$2.00 apiece! 

Refried to a nice, crisp bite, the insides were unfortunately a bit too gummy for my liking, and I actually didn't feel that there were a lot of beansprouts inside. Calling it prawn cracker would be much more beneficial. 

What I love was the chilli accompanying the fritter; it's like those from wuxiang stalls (like Lao Zhong Zhong Ngo Hiang) with a touch of spicy sweetness! 

Big Prawn Noodle Soup - without noodles means more vegetables and beansprouts but to be totally frank, I was expecting a lot more than what I managed to scoop up....

Five half prawns (total 2.5 whole prawns) were actually not generous, in view that this was a pricier dish at S$7.00. Saving grace was that the prawns tasted fresh.

Soup was surprisingly not bad; light and flavourful. I prefer richer, thicker soup like the ones from Zhup Zhup but really hard to compare since Zhup Zhup was priced at a way higher S$20.00! Wait, I saw crispy pork lards on the menu! Where were mine!?
