Rot Chun Yeam Beef Noodle @Pratunum @ Bangkok, Thailand.

Hangover and needed something soupy, was craving for some beef noodles. Luckily this stall was on grab, so I ordered it to the hotel. It may look bland but trust me, even after delivery, food was served piping hot and the bowl was absolute delight.

If you're ordering via grab, make sure tick for cutlery. It comes with the bowl! How thoughtful. Anyway this is one good bowl of beef noodles. Next round will go check it out at the restaurant.

Goodview Kopitiam @ Seksyen 17, PJ, Selangor, Malaysia.

Alright time for another lunch feast and this time we went and check out this corner coffee shop in Seksyen 17. More like to check out the sang har mein.

Ordered some fish noodles and steamed chicken to share. Good stuff!

We opted for smaller prawns instead of the big river prawns. Also ordered a beef hor fun. Pretty damn good if you ask me. Wok hei is there, portions were good. Definitely food coma after this feast.

Nuehom Beef noodles เนื้อหอมก๋วยเตี๋ยวเนื้อตุ๋นยาจีน @ Betong, Yala, Thailand.

Was randomly walking in town looking for some food upon chance I found this restaurant. I'm such a fan of beef noodles so I had to go and check it out.

The place was clean and comfy inside. Self service for water. I went for the full mix beef noodles and yesssssss the broth was super yummy. A delish hangover cure. 

Add in your veges and condiments, this is a power pack bowl of beef noodles. Why have I never been here before. This is definitely gonna be on my must go list in Betong.

Mama Lek แม่เล็ก – Thai Beef Noodle @ Wisma Cosway, KL, Malaysia.

I've been wanting to check out this place when they were back in a food court, I think back then it was in Setapak. Now they're located on Ground floor at Wisma Cosway. Place is comfy and spacious with aircon.

Menu is well laid out with a few options to choose from.

I went for the classic beef ball noodles. First sip of the broth without any add on condiments. Broth was super rich in umami flavour. Next step add in all the condiments, chilli flakes, sugar, fish sauce. Oh man this is indeed a stunning bowl of beef goodness. Packed with interesting notes.

Udon Taira うどん 平 @ Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, Japan.

Another udon contender worth checking out is this Udon Taira, my friend recommended this place. I'm really liking the various udon shops in this trip. The restaurant is clean, comfy and the turnover is fast. Ticked everything in my book.

Got English menu, order from the machine next to it. 

I think it's a husband wife duo and maybe their children, a family run business. I might be wrong. Check out the loaded bowl below. Oh my, I wished I can eat that again now.

The bomb, noodles were perfect, broth was just nice for me and portions were generous, my tummy was extremely happy after the meal. Definitely on my list next trip I'm back in Fukuoka.

Daichi No Udon 大地のうどん 博多駅ちかてん @ Hakata Ekimae, Fukuoka, Japan.

Another round of udon and this round I went and checked out this place called Daichi No Udon. Seems their famous for their burdock and beef udon.

Again certain places only accept cash, there's an English menu, not to worry. The queue was daunting but goes by quite fast.

Portion was huge, udon was spot on. This is a very hearty meal. Love it! Worth to check it out if you're in the area.

Makino Udon Hakata Bus Terminal @ Fukuoka, Japan.

Back at the Hakata Bus Terminal station and this round we went to check out the udon at Makino Udon. Again the queue can be daunting but trust me, it's not that bad and worth your time.

Order from the vending machine and pass your chit to the server inside where they will show you to your table/seats. My friend ordered an udon with something like a cucur udang/prawn cracker on top.

I had the beef as usual. Oh my, I think by far this is the best udon I ever had. The texture was outta this world. chewy? al dente? bouncy? Perfectly done udon noodles, the broth was light, not too sweet and you can top up the soup with the teapot on the side. I am still craving this udon even when I'm writing this. This is definitely one udon joint if I'm ever back in Fukuoka, guaranteed plus chopped I'll be back!!!

Marukame Udon @ Ho Chi Minh CIty, Vietnam.

I walked past by this packed restaurant a few times and I didn't managed to check it out the last time I was here in Vietnam. This trip  I made it a point to eat here.

As usual the place had a queue but the turnover was fast. Menu is simple and they have English translation as well. I ordered the beef udon as usual and with an onsen egg.

Nicely done, udon was perfect, just the way I like it, chewy and springy. Beef was good and portions were generous. Broth was comforting. I slurped down the entire bowl, beautiful!

Phở Long Hói - 122 Hồ Nghinh @ Da Nang, Vietnam.

Solo trip this round and I tried this pho near the hotel. 

It's alright, a bit clean tasting but then again my tastebud is more accustomed to Saigon style pho.

ร.เรือ เอกมัย @ Bangkok, Thailand.

What a gem, this place looks plain but the food is freaking worth it. Quite a variety of food they have on the menu. Although I do not know what's the name of this shop, luckily they have menu in English as well.

Beef noodles hits the spot, broth was spot on.  Shrimp with soft cooked egg on rice was suchhh a comfort food. 

Fried chicken was marinated perfectly and was a good dish to share. I had the instant noodles salad, omg so addictive.

A simple dish of fried rice, they do it well. Food portion was good, a bang on the wallet and best part, tasted good. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Ekkamai.

Koleang Boat Noodle ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเรือโกเหลียงเจ้าเก่า @ Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Walking distance from the hotel, I went and check out this boat noodle shop.

A good bowl of noodles, add the condiments, spice up your life. Good stuff.
