Boyfriend read somewhere that Star Cafe was going to close as the whole building was to be renovated. When that will happen is unknown. But he said it was going to happen. So, we went there one more time before it did. Star Cafe is a cha chan teng that has been here since 1966. Located in a building that once held a lot of hourly hotel rooms for prostitutes, it's now a run down shopping center where you can find old stores selling old camera parts and other knick knacks.

Star Cafe is a cha chan teng that has been here since 1966. Located in a building that once held a lot of hourly hotel rooms for prostitutes, it's now a run down shopping center where you can find old stores selling old camera parts and other knick knacks. In the basement of the building, is the restaurant. It's pretty filthy.
Menu is in Chinese only. They have no English. There is also no 10% service charge. They're most popular item (and pretty much everyone orders it) is the tomato soup based noodles. You can have it with just tomatoes or with scrambled egg. Toppings is up to you. All start at $37.
Boyfriend had his favorite. Scrambled egg with tomato soup noodles with slices of beef. The beef was soft and tender without the after taste of meat tenderizer. The eggs and tomato soup was blended together to get one layer of creamy soup.
I had the tomato soup with macaroni with chicken wings. The wings were marinaded in soy sauce and they were not over done. The soup had a strong hearty tomato taste. The macaroni was still firm.
The food was good. Prices were cheap. Service was a small family owned establishment so they give you more of a neighbourly feel. One of the classics that will one day go away.
