Update: Kok Kee Wanton Noodle has rebranded as Wai Kee Wanton Noodle.
I have long heard of the notoriety of Kok Kee Wanton Noodle from the now-defunct Lavender Food Square that overcharges for its small portions however, I have heard even more regarding its grumpy elderly owners who had offended quite a bit of customers (go snoop around the food forums and you'll see what I mean).
Yet, despite the less than favorable reputation, the stall still attract quite a queue daily.
Meanwhile, over at Jurong West 505 Market & Food Centre, there is a wanton noodle stall bearing the same name (also claiming to be from Bugis), charging the same higher-than-usual price, and does not serve green pickled chili just like the one at Lavender.
There were rumors that the young couple running this stall were the nephew and niece of the older couple who had since retired.
I cannot vouch for the authenticity of this information but, I am still very excited to try a plate of this "legendary" wanton noodle that I have heard so much about.
