I came after 3 PM, craving wanton noodles. I popped into the Wanchai Hong Kong Tearoom. I ordered one dry noodle and one soup noodle. The broth was naturally sweet but not flavourful. The dark-coloured broth could be deceptively appetising. The noodles were springy and cooked al dente, and the wanton was plump with a medium-sized whole prawn, though it lacked juiciness. Both the dry and soup versions were equally savoury enough. There was no need for further condiments, except for some preserved green cut chillies. The coffee was good, but the yuan yang was a bit diluted to our taste. The kaya toast was average, not toasty enough, and the bread was chewy. Overall, the food could have been served even warmer/hotter to uplift diners' appetites. There are many food choices in IMM. You may want to browse through them before deciding if you want to try this tearoom.

🐾 IMM Food Crawl – A Tail-Wagging Stop at Wan Chai Hongkong Tea Room 🐶 Sniff-sniff… stop right there! That irresistible scent? It led me straight to Wan Chai Hongkong Tea Room, tucked inside the bustling foodie haven that is IMM. And oh boy, did my little porridge-loving heart do a happy backflip. 🐾🍚 First up—Batang slice fish porridge, piping hot and perfectly seasoned. For just SGD 8.80, it warmed my hooman’s belly (and mine by association… thanks to the “oops, I dropped some” trick). Truly worth every cent, and then some. The feast didn’t stop there—because hoomans can never order just one thing: 🧀 Baked seafood cheese rice – rich, creamy, and had my nose stuck dangerously close to the plate. 🥩 Beef wantan noodles – springy, savoury, and slurp-approved. 🍜 Seafood wantan hor – a little too mushy for our tastebuds. Even my hooman made that face, and I politely looked away. With so many choices at IMM, Wan Chai stood out for its cosy charm, hearty portions, and solid flavours. So if you’re looking for a comforting, value-packed meal with a Hong Kong flair—this is the place to park your paws (outside, sadly… four-legged foodies not allowed inside haiz). — With a full tummy and a happy heart, Your IMM Food Sniffing Sidekick 🐾

If you have better dining options, it’s best to skip this place. The food was average at best, but the real issue was the service. Around 70% of the staff, from the counter to the floor, were noticeably below standard.

Wow. Honestly, I didn't expect this shop to be so freaking good. My boyfriend brought me here because he said this shop had been around since the early 2000s, when he was a kid. For this shop to have lasted so long in IMM, that says something. This tops the famous HK food at Jurong Point. The wanton mee soup was heavenly; it tasted like shark fin soup, but it's actually cuttlefish soup. The Macau fried rice had a super nostalgic early 2000s fried rice feel. I was very surprised to taste something like this; it really brought back memories. And all this for $30++ in this rising cost of living (COL) period! I saw some people ranting about the prices, but let's be real: this is a restaurant, not a coffee shop. Prices are very reasonable for a restaurant setting. If you go opposite to KPT, their drinks are also $2+ for subpar quality. As for service, we went during off-peak hours, so they were fine with us. I'll definitely be back again.

Ordered their Wan Chai Signature Fried Rice ($10), which came with a wintermelon soup. The fried rice was average, nothing special. Also tried their prawn paste chicken; it had good prawn paste flavor, and the texture was crispy and juicy inside. Would recommend trying other dishes.
