Wantan noodle seems to be gettable from everywhere here in KL. But it’s the matter of where to find a good one. In this case, I encountered it when going to Imbi for lunch one day after the original plan of going to Time Square got called off. Normally, ‘Char Siew’ would be one of the ‘defaulted’ side dish to be served together with ‘Wan Tan Mee’. However, I prefer to have without it this round. As a substitute, I was given slightly more ‘wan tan’ wrapped in soup, hehe :D No doubt, the presentation of this noodles wasn’t that inviting without the reddish ‘char siew’ :P The noodle was springy where each strain was adequately flavoured with the soya sauce and condiments alike. Vegetable was normal as I guess they are just blanched with hot water. As for the ‘wan tan’, they were nicely wrapped within a silky skin, which after cooked in hot soup, they are smooth and delectable to the palate. The soup was clear without any distinctive taste and the filling of the wan tan was nicely marinated. Overall, I think this wan tan noodle was still average. If were to compared with the Wan Tan Mee, I think this simple plate of chicken noodles fares better. It wasn’t the normal dry “Koay Teow” noodle that I used to try. This one comes in a simple presentation but it’s quite filling thought :D I ordered this over prawn mee upon hearing good recommendation by my friend. Indeed, the noodle is very silky smooth! You could actually choose other types of noodle like ‘wan tan mee’ but I prefer to have this as I enjoyes ‘slurping’ my noodles all the way in, haha :P The bundle of noodles was nicely simmered with hot water, and then put on top of the mixed soya sauce. It was too salty luckily. Then slices of chicken breast were nicely laid on the bed of the silky noodle, and then drenched with some scallions as well as some garlic oil. The chicken meat was very juicy and tender. With the addition of minced garlic in oil, which is fried till crispy, it had further made the dish more enjoyable. Aroma was also enhanced with the companion of fragrant scallions. With all these simple condiments, the dry koay teow was unarguably, a delectable enjoyment. Therefore, as the adage goes, ‘Never judge a book by its cover’ :P
