After an exhausting day exploring Art Basel, boyfriend and I wanted a quick dinner so we could go home, rest up and hit the other art fairs that weekend. We decided to eat at the cha chan teng we usually go to that is nearby but when we got there, it was closed. Apparently, they don't do evenings! So, we went to the one next door.Similar to the other cha chan teng next door, it has seating in the alley but there is a canvas on top to act like a makeshift roof. Menu, similar to the one next door
Similar to the other cha chan teng next door, it has seating in the alley but there is a canvas on top to act like a makeshift roof. Menu, similar to the one next door serves cha chan teng classics and a few Thai flavored items. All is in Chinese. There is no English but I did see some Caucasians so perhaps there is one available upon request? There is also no 10% service charge.
I ordered the Hong Kong style of an all day breakfast that is popular in cha chan tengs. It's basically a bowl of macaroni in soup, toast and an egg. But here they have an option of other types of noodles so I chose that instead.
My set came with half a slice of buttered toast. This was nice and toasted. But the egg was interesting as it was really more an omelette. There was slices of char siu folded inside. A nice touch, I thought. Too bad the egg was so overcooked, it felt like I was eating cardboard.
The set included a bowl of noodles and I chose vermicelli with shredded chicken. The chicken tasted like the one served with Hainan chicken rice. Though there was a lot more skin than actual meat given. The vermicelli was soggy and way over cooked. The soup was extremely salty.
Not expensive, that is for sure. Really don't think I'd return.
