The Best Prawn Noodles in Singapore

prawn noodles - 10/10

where do you think the best prawn noodle in Singapore is? for those of you who love prawn noodles, I'm sure you have your picks. the tasty soup, the succulent prawns with the delicious noodles, there are many great places in singapore that i've been too. i know some of you are thinking, jln sultan, beach road and joo chiat. but those pale in comparison. what i'm talking about here is the king of prawn noodles. the yummiest, most decadently delicious. the numero uno of prawn noodles.

its called river south prawn noodles. there. i said it. and yes, it is the best. not just by me, but by makansutra too. its the only prawn noodles stall in singapore to receive 6 chopstix, which is the highest grade in makansutra. so this place is pretty damn good.

its slightly hard to get to, but its well worth it. its a hawker center, with the shop being run by two sisters. the menu is simple. soup or dry, either with pork ribs or without, and your choice of noodles. they have kway teow (my fav), the mee fen, and the regular yellow noodles. additionally, i usually order an extra bowl of pork ribs on the side because they're so good.

the noodles are cooked well, and the soup is fantastic. the pork ribs have been cooking in the soup for so long that the soup is opaque, and not transparent. thats how thick and delicious the soup is. the prawns are big and juicy too, cooked just long enough to give it the right texture. the combination of all three is heavenly. so what are you waiting for. go get a bowl today.
