十八座狗仔粉 — Restaurant in Hong Kong

Browsing through XHS, a lot of people recommend this noodles, it was one of the Michelin Guide as well.

We ordered the “Doggy Noodles”, Fake Shark Fin Soup with Shredded Duck, Braised Rostered Duck Drumstick, Mixed Ball (meat ball & squid ball), and Assorted Braised Food (Radish, Pig’s Intestines & Stomach & Skin).

The noodles taste above average, it looked and texture like the Malaysia Dai Lok Mien (大碌面), I would suggest add the spicy dried radish to enhance the flavour. The Assorted Braised Food very delicious, the gravy was flavourful and the food were well braised. The duck drumstick taste average. The fake shark fin soup with shredded duck, quite different from others because it added shredded duck, the taste I find it just ok, and nothing special about the mixed ball.

The price was acceptable and the dining area was quite small and limited seats. Staff were quite friendly...

The name “狗仔粉” originates from the noodles’ short and thick appearance, resembling a puppy’s tail. In the 50s, this dish was a popular, affordable option for many locals. This shop was founded in 2013 and was featured in the Michelin Guide multiple times.

The noodles were smooth and it slides into your mouth but the broth was just meh. If you are looking to taste the culture, then it’s a yes, but if it is otherwise, then not so much.

As for the environment, it is a typical Hong Kong downtown shops with very limited space. It was packed and sharing tables with stranger is a norm here and easily...

狗仔粉 is thick noodles like udon with thick soup and lotsa CaiPor & pork lard. Can choose spicy or non spicy caipor. Just get the spicy. It's good.

The roasted shredded chicken soup is good too. Like our fake sharks fin soup in SG pasar malam . Comfort food.

We got the braised mixed innards with white raddish too, more on the chewy side but the spiciness is power so add abit chilli can liao.

A great place for supper...
