#favouriteitinerary We usually do supper in the Bugis area, but this time, we decided to mix things up and went for lunch at Ah Gong Ke Kou Mian in Bras Basah Complex. The place had a cozy, bustling lunchtime vibe, and we were excited to dig into their signature Spicy Pork Noodles. The bowl was a flavor-packed delight, with a hearty, spicy broth that had just the right amount of heat to keep things interesting without being overwhelming. The noodles were perfectly cooked, with that satisfying chewiness, and they soaked up all the rich, spicy goodness of the broth. What really set this dish apart was the variety of toppings. The tender slices of pork were juicy and perfectly cooked, while the pork liver added a rich, savory depth to the dish. The minced meatballs were soft and flavorful, and the sliced pork just melted in your mouth. But the real star was the poached egg—it was perfectly runny, and when you broke it open, the yolk mixed with the spicy broth to add a creamy, luscious texture that took the dish to the next level. With every bite, you got a bit of everything—the heat from the broth, the tenderness of the pork, and the richness of the egg. It was a satisfying, well-balanced bowl of noodles, and honestly, the poached egg alone was worth the trip! Plus, it’s super affordable, so you get amazing value for such a delicious, filling meal. If you're ever in the Bugis area and want a hearty, spicy meal, Ah Gong Ke Kou Mian is the place to go. The combination of flavors and textures in their Spicy Pork Noodles makes it a must-try for sure! #localfood #myitinerary
