Yeh Jia Calamari Rice Noodle Soup

Founded in 1935, this shop claims to be the creator of calamari rice noodle soup. Into the third generation, the owner still insists on making thick rice noodles with brown rice for its fragrance and firm texture. Calamari from Indonesian waters are cooked in a clear broth with intense flavour, a hint of peppery aroma and a sweet aftertaste. If you are lucky, you may also get to try the squid roe. The shop is a bit congested, but clean and air-conditioned. Expect to queue for a table on holidays.
