First of all, I have sampled both the Wisma & Vivo Famous Prawn Noodle. Comparatively, the Wisma version is tastier and somewhat less watery than the Vivo PN. I thgt their standard will be leveled. Due to my utter disappointment, I pay $4 for a plate which I can find it anywhere else. At the end of day, I still believe that PN is still PN. You can't get anything special or terrific from a plate of yellow noodles with some squid, prawns, fishcakes and sambal chili.
I believe the selling point for this shop is to display the man with the straw hat poster. Does this remind of you the uncle selling Carrot cake in Clementi? Both of them are famous for their hat prior their culinary skills. Let's put it this way, those who wants to be famous shld wear a straw hat or perhaps, a flashy shirt or a golden ROLEX watch. Attract your customer first to come to try your food?
Other characteristics of this stall is that they cook noodles for several customers in a large wok plus serve your noodles in a cone on a plate. To save their precious earning time, they can serve up to 10 plates per wok. The que is always long but pple think what the heck, the guy is whipping up noodles so fast. Well....nxt time you going to Republic, if the que for rest of the stalls is superb long, you may wan to try this stall.
