Too easy to please?

Nah. Just swannin' around in style.

 

[pagingjoan]

Yep. The only way to go!

 

[Townsend]

Do not get me wrong, I love it to. It is just strange that they use those noodle

They need to use rice vermicelli. No one uses those noodles for laksa!

That's right. These noodles are rice flour and corn or tapioca flour mix and so do not absorb any laksa soup therefore stays tasteless. The Sin lounge uses it because it's short and stays in the spoon and slurped up with the soup, it will at least have some flavour. However nothing will overcome that firm texture when it's only parboiled for laksa. Hence it's traditional use in slow braised noodle dishes. You would think even though NP would have no idea of this finer distinction, the Sin chefs would enlighten him and spare us this travesty.

Chef Linda?

I will give her credit for the perfectly cooked crispy skin barramundi paired with versatility to the ever changing sauces. Any barra swimming in NT, dying in Sin would be proud to end up as a culinary masterpiece.

I think the SIN cooks might be the issue given he specifies Vermicelli as one of the noodle options

That then makes it worse. The Sin chefs knowing better but going ahead with their inappropriate option is just treating us as grateful ignoramous; dress it up with lobster and we won't know any better.
