MEAT BALL NOODLES @ XO STALL
Newton Circus, Singapore - 28th April, 2013
After a participating in the OCBC Cycle Singapore 2013 event (... see blog), some of us went over to Newton Circus to try out the renown meat balls noodles.
The Newton Circus is renown as one of Singapore's food court with a multitude of food on offer. Locals will say that pricing here is higher and that the food may not be as good as other places. Many tourists come here to eat as it is a conveniently located with a good range of food.
I come from Penang, a place renown for its delicious food - so my taste buds is very discretionary when it comes to food. But then we are in Singapore, so might as well see what Singapore has to offer.
I ordered a bowl of the hand-made minced meat noodles. It came with deep fried meat ball and garnishing of Chinese Cabbage & Choy Sum.
The meat balls were delicious - crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
The noodles were the wantan type, springy and with a easy bite to it.
But the soup was a bit lacking in flavor and aroma. Room for improvement there.
Sin, my fellow cyclist, ordered dried Konloh Wantan Noodles together with a bowl of fish ball soup.
The fish balls had a good spring to them but was somehow lacking that fishy taste and smell.
From another stall, we got the Stewed Duck Teochew Style (Teochew Lor Ar). It came with a generous helping of ground nuts, bean sprouts, sliced cucumber, etc. The groundnuts were tasty, having soaked in the duck gravy. If they were only slightly softer, they would have been perfect.
The duck meat was surprisingly tender and tasty. Having been cut cross-wise, they too soak in the duck gravy to give a good tender and wet munch.
The XO Minced Meat Noodle Stall. They serve a good variety of meat ball & fish ball dishes. A sign states that they are opened 24 hours.
The Stewd Duck Stall - stall @01-09. They also serve barbecued pork (char siew) and white rice.
The two stall are next to each other, separated by an entrance corridor. The duck stall is on the left while the minced meatballs stall is on the right.
