Tai Won Mein Noodle House - Greenwich

Finally we got round to visiting the Tai Won Mein Noodle House.  Having walked past the restaurant for over a year, looking at the number of people always packing the place out and hearing its praises being sung by one of my work colleagues I was wondering could it really be that good?  I finally found out the answer!

We decided to go in on a whim  and found the place pretty packed, we were quickly shown to a noodle bench (ie a long benches with seating each side - its not as close quarters as some places I have been to) by an efficient waitress.

We both decided on noodle soups from the menu, it just being lunch and we fancied something light, but the menu covers anything noodle wise you could possibly want.

Looking around I couldn't help but notice that the portions are huge and this was confirmed when our noodle soups arrived, super big bowls with plenty of chicken and prawns in respectively.

The food tasted very fresh and healthy, we did manage to finish but around us people were pouring their leftovers into handy doggy bags, well actually take away boxes (they charge 50p for one of these), but to be honest its well worth the money.  I always think noodles are like Pizza, even better the day after (although is that just me?)

You pay up at the till here and as we approached the lady magically seemed to know what we had ordered.  The cost (without service charge - they don't add one or expect you pay one) was £14.95 all in - but we did make sure we popped some money in the tip box by the till.

If you are after great noodles, at an amazing price and brilliant value for money with no nonsense staff (I love no fuss kinda of places) then this isWon  the place for you.  I just wished we had had something a little more naughty and had to take advantage of the doggy bags!
