Braised beef noodles is a firm favourite in GZ. Every shop has its own version, from the ‘ching’ (clear) soupy type to more pronounced braised broth. Customers can choose preferred ingredients: tripe, two types of intestines, tendon, brisket or beef balls with or without noodles (several varieties available e.g. coarse rice noodles, flat rice noodles, lou shi fun, lai fun or instant noodles type). Some beancurd puffs are added for textural interest and one stall offers ox blood cake too.

We also enjoyed luscious sweet potato and glutinous rice ice cream from Ah Ma Handmade Dessert. Our last hurrah before we leave on Sat was a good cheong fun stuffed with sliced pork, prawns and lettuce, served with a nicely seasoned soy sauce.
