We opted for the latter to go with the Pork Rib Prawn Noodle ($5).

With a mix of thin bee hoon and yellow noodles sitting at the bottom, the huge bowl was brimming with a thick orangey broth, generous amounts of big prawns, and a spoonful of fried shallots. The strong aroma of the prawn broth alone assured me that I would not be disappointed and when I took the first spoonful, I was right.
