Tongue Tip Lanzhou Beef Noodle, Chinatown Point

Unclaimed

The soup tastes quite salty. The stewed beef is soft. There are many sizes of noodles to choose from. The noodles are very soft. Overall, I like it. It's delicious, easy, and fast.

Tongue Tip offers a hearty meal with balanced flavours and a world of texture. My go-to is the Sauerkraut Three Treasures with their finest 毛細noodles. The soupy noodles were soft and silky, the perfect foil to the tender, meaty brisket slices, spongy tripe, just-chewy-enough tendons and crucnhy bits of pickled mustard greens. Go easy on the stock if you’re sensitive to MSG; too much of it can induce a slightly persistent thirst. If you’re having yours dry, try the flat 大寬 noodles, which will take on the condiments and chilli oil with aplomb. I like a good aged black vinegar and a generous dash lifts the savoury flavours instantly. The appetisers were a tad bland for my liking but nevertheless tasted fresh. Try their sour plum drink, part palate cleanser and part thirst quencher. Special mention must go to the Indian counter staff, who was patient and helpful with the menu. Service was brisk and cheerful, and tables that have empty dishes are efficiently cleared. For a bit of theatre, a window to the kitchen allows you to watch the noodle master at work alongside the other chefs preparing the ingredients and stock as well as plating up the meals. If you have the Grab app, use their Dine Out Deals to get a 15% discount on your total bill. With or without that, Tongue Tip still delivers value for money.
