the signboard

Looking for a bowl of typical olden day prawn noodles seem to be a challenge. I thought we have found one that tasted similar, the Da Lu Prawn Noodles, that was situated in this coffeeshop lookalike at the corner of the Far East Square along Telok Ayer St.

One evening, I arranged for an evening dinner there, just before the nanyin concert at the nearby Thian Hock Keng. To my disappointment, the Da Lu Prawn Noodles were gone! The whole place was boarded up!

       a nice setup

A couple of days ago, thanks to Doris, I saw a leaflet indicating its new location. And today, we went in search of it. It is located at the China Square, facing the square from the building that is back-to-back with those along South Bridge Road.

At least for me, in case of “emergency” I have one to default to. At large is another Prawn Noodles stall that used to be in the Opera Food Court in Far East Square. Opera Food Court is gone. This stall used to be at a coffeeshop along Seah St. Anyone knows please alert us!
