Homemade Fish Head Noodles 美味园 @ SS15

This is another dish that we often come across during rainy days
Whenever there is rainy day
We always crave for hot soup
just like how people go for steamboat when the rain is super duper heavy
But usually, steamboat will cost about more than RM20 for each person
which is a little bit too pricey for our weekday dinner
Hence, we always ended up going to this Homemade Fish Head Noodles @ SS15
to have some hot and spicy meehoon that comes with a big portion of fish
What I mean is, of course it has to come with a big portion of fish,
otherwise, how does it called itself fish noodle soup

Their famous noodle, which is within one of my must-order-list,
is this XO fried fish noodle soup.
I always like to serve it with meehoon
guess eating with meehoon I can feel less carbo
and I can end up finishing the whole bowl by myself with this kind of mindset
*not forget to mention about their big portion
Ma Man always like to try fish noodles with other cooking style,
but I always stick with this one
as usual, hot and spicy, suit me well
and what makes me fall for this soup is
I can really taste those little anchovies in my every sip of the soup
it is so lovely of them.

And the main character, the fish chunks,
as per Ma Man, they use fish from freshwater
because freshwater fish is a lot cheaper as compared to the seawater,
yet, the meat is still good
Who said one can never find good food in a cheap price
They usually serve the fried fish chunks separately from the soup
this is mainly to keep the crispness of the fish while serve
and I often keep this masterpiece of the whole dish till last
Why? I just like how I keep my mouth remain in the sea area
while all the salivation process help to remind me on the taste even after leaving the shop

Ma Man yesterday ordered a bowl of their usual fish head meehoon soup
the fish is never fried for this dish, unlike my fried fish
and as can see from the picture, the soup color is ordinary white, with no added any spicy or chilli in it
Taste wise, very milky and a little bit of sourness, which comes from the tomato and sour pickles, to open up the appetite
personally, I like my XO soup
but fish wise, I guess I really like this fresh fish head
as it contains a lot of collagen
I mean, I can really feel the collagen while eating this fish head
and this cute little fish that comes with collagen just makes me fall in love with eating fish head again
and I would definitely ask for fish head for my next visit.

*****
What we had tried previously in this restaurant
includes the asam fish meehoon and its stir fried brinjal in the hotpot
Asam fish meehoon, just like its name sounds,
taste a bit sour with its clear soup
I guess there is nothing to compare between its usual fish meehoon soup and its asam meehoon soup
It tastes a bit similar in terms of sourness and how this sourness opens up your appetite
But it taste different as its asam soup tastes lighter in terms of flavour

Stir fried brinjal in the hotpot
I would say this is another dish that I would think off whenever comes to this restaurant
This dish is the dish that I think is most worth it as per its price
Delicious?
Of course!
If Ma Man and I are craving for vegetables, we would no think twice to order this as our side dish.
