Depot Family

Another weekend well spent with my trusty lil sis @joshadeline . Remember a few posts back where we end up having some unpleasant meal of kwetiau capcay, bad service, overly sweet syrup drink? Finally today we had the chance to actually go to Depot Family, kudos to sis for pulling my lazy butt to have their special Hokkien Noodle (dry noodle with all of the house made toppings). Do check my Instagram @jasontandean to see more food posts.

A portion consists of a bowl of well cooked, springy thin noodles topped with varieties of fishballs, 2 prawns, minced beef+pork cooked in soy sauce, 2 fritters/fried balls and a bowl of soup + condiments on the side. 

Taste? Way better than what I had previously in that other place. This is a home-restaurant which means the owner literally converted a part of her house to accommodate dining customers. Home-made would be an appropriate statement to be used here, and I'm not exaggerating. Tastes like home and worth the effort to drive around in the housing complex in order to find this restaurant. 

Fishballs' textures are nice and chewy but not too chewy, prawns are fresh, fritters are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Add a dash of chilli sauce and pickled chilli before taking a bite in order to get the most (flavour) out of your bowl. What about the soup, you say? Well it's optional for me, most of the time I don't have it as I prefer my noodle to be dry noodle, as gorgeous as it is.
