Chinese noodle canteen @ Nam Kee

There are two Nam Kee joints in Wan Chai, however the one I went to was less efficient, the menu was very confusing, and it was like a Canteen, you need to order and pay first, and then leave your ticket with the food counter and collect it when it’s done.

The seating there is very cramped.

As for the food, you can’t expect much for Chinese noodles, tried the vermicelli and the ho-fun, the ho-fun was slightly better, the vermicelli was low-grade vermicelli with impurities, it was not pure white, but had grey particles in it.

Anyway, I came here for their signature spring rolls rather than the noodles, it is fish meat wrapped in beancurd skin.
They were rather good, because they didn’t contain grounded bone pieces.
There was probably some pork in it.

The octopus balls were tasteless, but the texture of the octopus was not chewy, but springy.

For the sauces, there was Chilli oil, preserved vegetables, and Chilli sauce.
The preserved vegetables were good to give the soup some flavour and the Chilli sauce had some spices in it.
