Seriously folks, I freakin' adore this place, so listen to me and do yourself a service by making a beeline to this total dive and ghetto of a noodle shop and have yourself a delicious bowl of spicy and sour noodle in soup (ask for mild spicy). Lunch time in Central is often a traumatic experience, eating in Central is expensive unless you're an expat and can afford to spend $100+ for a meal. I'm not - so I can't, in fact, I'm so grossly underpaid that it's disgusting. Nevermind, my favourite to get here is either number 3 (pork slices) or number 9 (spring rolls filled with fish paste), 3 out of the 5 day work week, you will most likely find me here slurping away happily as others dodge about with their trays, being careful not to spill that gorgeously hot soup atop others' heads given how quickly this place fills up with the local crowd. Seriously, there is something very addictive about that soup, but be forewarned, you will get thirsty - tremendously so - afterwards. And that's what the water cooler in your office's pantry is for, so go pour yourself some. Interestingly enough, you can become a "member" if you sign up for their membership card upstairs somewhere and save 2 bucks for each subsequent bowl thereafter. I am always impressed by the cashier lady taking the order as she's laser sharp, quick and very smart, never missing a tap on her on-screen monitor as per your customizations to your bowl. Cheap and filling, you won't find a better deal elsewhere in Central, the poshest section of town in Hong Kong. 2 perfectly manicured thumbs way up.
