Yi
Zun Noodle is Singapore’s first-ever Muslim-owned restaurant that specialises
in Chinese hand-pulled (La-Mian) noodles. Founded by Madam Aisha, a
Chinese-Muslim from Qinghai in China, Yi Zun signature dish is Beef Noodle. LD
and I visited their original branch in Sam Leong Road in Little India for a
quick lunch.

The
set up of the shop is very simple, functional like most of the Chinese
restaurant in Jalan Besar neighbourhood. On the wall, there is a poster
showcasing the origin of Qinghai beef noodle.

For
entrée, we ordered Beef Salad ($3.60). The beef salad uses the lean part of the
beef. The sauce is filled with mala seasoning, filled with peppercorn flavours
but not the numbing type. I was expecting the meat to be succulent, instead, it
is on the dry side.

For
the main, LD and I ordered Yizun Beef Noodle ($7.80, small). For small, the
portion is very generous. The broth is clear, filled with solid beef flavour
and touch of sweetness from the radish. The sliced lean meat covered the top
part of the bowl, however, don’t expect your melt in your mouth texture type of
beef.

The
star of this dish is the la-mian. It is springy, bouncy with a great bite to
it. The noodle is made fresh in house and it truly showcases the skill of the
noodle master.

LD mixed
this noodle with their chilli and it surely will whet your appetite due to
fragrant and tasty chilli.

I rate
the beef noodle as OK. I won’t mind coming back to try their other noodle
dishes. If you like spicy mala, you can try their dry chilli chicken and their
mala pot. Don’t forget to order their Sour Prune Juice ($4.50 by jar, $1.50 per
cup). Cheers!!
