Thaksin Beef Noodle
How often have you come across a dish that got it's name from a Politician?
Indeed, the name was what truly caught my eye while researching for recommendations of what to eat at Clementi Central.
Nestled in a Halal coffeeshop, Thaksin Beef Noodle sells - as you would have guessed it - Beef Noodles that is named after Thaksin Shinawatra, the Thai Prime Minister.
Manned by two Malay ladies, the stall offer other Thai dishes like the Pad Thai, Seafood Tom Yum, Seafood Fried Rice and Beef Ball Soup.
I decided to give their signature dish, the Beef Noodles a try after reading reviews online touting it as the next best alternative outside of Thailand!
What I learnt was that the boss acquired the recipe from a Thai thus making this an authentic bowl of Thai Beef Noodles.
Available in four different sizes (Standard, Value, Supreme, Super), I ordered for myself the Supreme bowl which costs $6 and I requested for kway teow instead of noodles.
