Penang Curry Noodle in a Pack

Recently, there has been a buzz on Penang curry noodle in a pack.  These days there are so many variation of Maggi Mee or Cintan Mee, the traditional noodle in a pack, with lots of msg.  These days the instant noodle you see in the supermarket shelves come from many brands, many taste of variationsa nd flavour.


The latest are the Penang curry noodles, which is supposedly to be similar to the actual Penang curry noodle.  Well, we tried the famous My Kuali and Ah Lai Curry Noodle.

My Kuali was being fussed about as it is supposedly to taste fabulously delicious.  So, we tried and this is our verdict.  Mind you, these instant noodle does not come cheap, it costs about RM8.50 when you pick them up at supermarket or SGD4, if you get them delivered to you.

My Kuali is ok but we found it a bit blend when compared with Ah Lai.  Ah Lai has the stronger curry aroma with taste of dried shrimp.

HMMMMMM...... Sedap!!

I added the fishballs and change the noodle to curry noodle with beehoon and bean sprouts.

And I went to Penang to buy two cartons of them, one carton at RM82 each.  There are twelve sets of 4 packets in each carton.  You can get this or smaller portion from the shops along Penang Road.

Thai Food in the Middle of Teen Shopping Haven in Bugis Street

Many teens love shopping at Bugis Street because of its central location, its varieties of clothes, bags, accessories and fashion wears at very low and affordable prices.  You can get great bargains from the many shops located in Bugis Street.  They have 3 levels of air-conditioned shopping stalls that sell the latest teen fashion wear.

Smacked in between these shopping haven is a row of 3 cafes that served local and Thai food.  I enjoy the thai tom yum goong from the Thai stall at Bugis Street, which is located on the 3rd level of the building.  There are good amount of seating tables and chairs for shoppers.

Love the thai tom yum beehoon and thai tea, which cost S$5 + S$1.50.  Makes you feel like you are in Thailand.  The tom yum is yummylicious.  And the place is called Mae Noi Thai Food.
