La Mee Restaurant

We were in a spot for noodles, so we decided to go to one of the best noodle restaurants in town: La Mee Restaurant.

This be the signboard of the restaurant. It's located in Serusop and is labelled as one of the few Chinese restaurants that Malay people can actually go in to eat because the chef is a Muslim-convert from Taiwan, if I'm not mistaken. There's another branch in Gadong area, but the noodles are not as good as the main branch here, that's why we prefer eating here.




This be the interior of the restaurant. They have a see-through window where you can see the chef do their magic pulling and kneading the dough to make the noodles for us. So even though it's a long wait, it's worth it because you would know that the food is fresh. In fact, anything that can be made from the dough of the noodles were all done here as well

This be our drinks: Teh-C Ping Special. It's basically milk tea with three layers: the tea, the milk and the sugar, in which they usually use gula Melaka, which is uber sweet, almost as sweet as rock sugar. They serve it in the three layer mode and you have to stir it to mix all the layers together, or else you're gonna get a really weird flavour

This is what I ordered: Tom Yam La Mee. It's not as spicy as I've hoped, but it's got the great sourness a tom yam usually have, and the texture and taste of the noodles is just sublime and tangy to the mouth

This is what my friend ordered: La Mee with Fish Fillet and Coleslaw. Basically it's their signature La Mee with fish fillet and coleslaw as the side dish. The skin itself is nice and crispy, just the way we like it

So, for the best noodles in the whole of Brunei, be sure to drop by here. You won't regret it, trust me. After eating this sort of noodles you will want no other, seriously.
