Ladychai

The second-generation owner of this family-run shop still follows the original c. 1920 recipes. The establishment is packed at peak times, so expect to queue, serve yourself and share a table with strangers. Order the signature braised beef by the catty – about 0.5 catty per person. Specify whether you want it fatty or lean. Plain noodles in beef broth come in two sizes. The flavoursome broth and toothsome noodles are a match made in heaven.
