Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop
Ok, we know all these wonton shop names sound the same, and while they are all delicious in their own unique way, Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop is definitely one that's different from the rest. Earning its rightful place in the
2018 Michelin Guide, this famous wonton eatery uses a mixture of shrimp meats to pile on the texture and taste of each wonton. They also cook everything in a broth made from shrimp meats, pork bones, and Jinhua ham, a dry-cured ham that's packed with flavour. The restaurant itself has a semi-open kitchen where customers can see for themselves the process of how their wonton noodles get made.
