So I decided to be adventurous and ordered the relatively pricey soup (RM 23) with a serving of dried yellow noodles (RM 5) on the side. Sadly, this turned out to be a wrong choice. The broth was extremely salty, even more so than their regular beef soup which I normally have. The amount of meat was rather plentiful considering its price. But less than one third of the meat was actually tulang (oxtail). It was mostly chunks of beef brisket that were way too hard and chewy to bite even for a person with good teeth like me.
