Soi 19 (十九街) Wan Ton Mee at AMK

Greetings from the land of smile, Thailand, in Singapore ~ Many locals are familiar with Thailand and many had been there not only once. Especially in Bangkok which attracts many to shop and dine there, typically to a very famous dish of Wan Ton Mee 云吞面.

Soi 19 (十九街)is one of the fav place, 10 mins from the shopping belt of Bangkok near Platinum Fashion Mall.
Soi 19 in SG

Now lovers, for this simple Chinese delicacy, no long have to fly to Bangkok just to have their craving cured.

Located in Blk 151 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5, the distinguished signage will catch your attention and of course with the long queue.

I finally decided to visit them today after missing them on my last visit on Monday.

Queue was long with about 20 other diners before me while i overheard some saying that they had queued for 1 hour just to have their share of this dish. As i waited patiently for my turn, I had decided to go for the big serving & I would have 2 Big servings! (my past experience with the original Thailand outlet, their serving is damn small. even my 9 years old daughter says:"1 mouth Noodles")

Greeted by a very friendly & apologetic auntie taking order, I ordered what I had in mind and proceed to scooping their MUST eat crispy pork lard! This item is a signature to the noodles and with the aromatic smell & taste which will totally lift up the WTM. They have free flow of chilli powder, green chilli, cloves of fresh baby garlic in skin as well as the vinegar soaked baby garlic which allows diners to add to their likings.

 The noodles is of a very unique taste & texture which is chewy but yet soft bite feel when you sink your teeth into it. Coupled with the light fish sauce, lard and fried garlic mixture, the overall taste of the noodles is lifted. The aroma of the different ingredients are clear distinguished. The noodles is served with boiled wan ton in soup as well as fried wanton. The stuffings is packed full with marinated minced pork, which is lightly salted, gives your taste bud a brand new view of the wanton. Char Sio is of a rather generous serving, with the lightly charred appearance and smell. Chinese sausage (Lup Cheong) is added to give you the taste of another rare add-ons to WTM, the firm texture of the sausage & flavours from the spices gives you a different experience when its eaten together with the noodles.
        
The speciality of this stall is in the quality of the noodles which tasted exactly as the original Bangkok outlet.

The passion that the stall owner could be felt with the taste & quality of this dish which seems simple but massive backend preparations just to present to the diners with original experience as in the Land of Smile.
