Hello! Wonton Noodle
Restaurants are popping up like popcorns on Yonge street around our neighbourhood. We discovered this new restaurant -- Hello! Wonton Noodle, as we were strolling along Yonge street. Most of the new restaurants in this area are Korean restaurants, so I was pleasantly surprised to find a different kind of restaurant being opened up. Wonton noodles are no surprises to me (since I've lived in Hong Kong), so I have my own set of expectations going into this restaurant.
As soon as we entered the restaurant, the decoration caught my attention. The interior is very contemporary, unlike most other wonton noodle places I have been to. The room is well-lit, colourful and welcoming. The leather chairs are comfortable, and the tables are clean, not what I have come to expect from a wonton noodle restaurant.
When we sat down, the waiter brought us two little empty tea cups with jasmine tea bag in each one. Where is the hot water? As I looked around for water source, I was surprised to find a "hot water tap" built right into each table. What a great idea! I don't need to wait for the waiter to refill my cup anymore.
I ordered a bowl of shrimp wonton + Fishball Noodle (雲吞+魚球麵) ($4.5). The soup doesn't taste too "soapy". It's hard to describe this taste, it's definitely an acquired taste, but to those who enjoy it will probably find it less stimulating, but I like it just fine. The shrimp wonton is filled with fresh crunchy shrimps which tasted great. I just wished the shrimps were a bit bigger. But the taste definitely is worth the whole $4.5.After we've ordered our food, they gave us a small paper slip listing the stuff we ordered. At the end of the meal, we take this to the cashier at the front of the store to pay. Very efficient indeed.
Overall, I enjoyed the lunch very much, I'll definitely find time to go back again.
