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.
 
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
