老媽拌麵 (English name: Mom's Dry Noodles) is one of many popular instant noodle brands from Taiwan that have popped up recently in Hong Kong. I've tried a number of them and thought they were far superior to the usual instant noodles. But now they are opening up actual sit down restaurants serving up .. yes, their noodles.Boyfriend and I were shopping in Tseug Kwan O and decided to have dinner in the mall.

Boyfriend and I were shopping in Tseug Kwan O and decided to have dinner in the mall. Mall food is always fairly limited so we wanted something simple. This place was perfect.
Menu is in English and Chinese. You pay on your way out. They offer various noodle dishes along other Taiwanese dishes. They offer upgrade options for drinks and side dishes which we did do.
I had the Passion Fruit Osmanthus Tea ($18, on the left) and boyfriend had the Mom's Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea ($28, on the right). I liked mine a lot more than boyfriend's. The brown sugar was not sweet enough and it seemed to be too much milk to tea. Mine, on the other hand, was pretty good. A sweet and sour balance that really quenched any thirst I was feeling.
We shared snacks. This was the Deep Fried Squid Balls ($24). I loved these. Like deep fried siu mai, these were adictive. Lots of squid flavor and very firm in texture. It came with a very spicy dipping sauce.
The ther snack was Fermented Bean Curd Flavor Deep Fried Chicken ($28). This was really good as well. The seasoning was on point. The coating was not too thick and very crispy. The chicken meat was juicy. It came with a side of fermented bean curd for dipping.
I had the Chef Signature White Wine Chicken Dry Noodles ($78). Portion size was bigger than expected! The egg was softly boiled. The chicken was tender with enough sauce to coat the noodles. It wasn't too salty as well. But the noodles were really good. Definitely the star of this. Chewy and smooth. It coated the sauce well.
Boyfriend had the Braised Beef Noodle Soup with Spicy Sichuan Sauce with beef shank, tendon and belly ($82). He chose a thicker noodle and these were really good as well. The noodle was firm and smooth. No starchy after taste. The beef soup was rich and fragrant but a bit too spicy for me. But boyfriend felt it was fine. The beef shank was well flavored. The tendon was soft and melted easily away without chewing. The only problem was the belly. It was so tough, I think we left it behind for fear we may not be able to digest it.
Food was fine especialy for mall food. It was simple enough with prices not overly expensive. Would probably be back if in the area and needed something to eat.
