Food: North Park's Ultimate Noodles Soup

This review of North Park's Ultimate Noodles Soup is a long-delayed one. I have been enjoying North Park's latest noodle soup for over a year already (or was it two years?) and no trip to the restaurant is without an order of this very filling and satisfying noodle soup. Although lately, I'm favoring the regular wanton noodle soup over this, but still, this is one of my favories.



North Park's Ultimate Noodles Soup is one for the noodle lover's list. It a complete meal, and a jam-packed one at that. It has slices of breaded porkchop, 4 pieces of Wanton and shrimp dumplings, beef cubes (I think about 4 pieces as well), Bok Choy leaves, lots and lots of mushrooms and your favorite noodle (mine is always Hong Kong style).



This is served in a large stone bowl that stays hot a lot longer than regular ceramic bowls. They will also give you a second large bowl for the broth, because the first bowl will be filled with the solid parts of the noodle soup already that there won't be enough space for the broth . Although the last time we ate at North Park, we weren't given a separate bowl for the broth. I hope this was only because that was Valentine's Day and the restaurant was literally bursting with diners and there was a long queue of hungry customers waiting outside, that they forgot that extra bowl.

So far, the taste has remained the same although I did notice that the chunks of pork and beef had decreased in size, albeit only slightly. The Hong Kong style noodles are still al dente and the broth flavorful. And the dumplings, they're just so good especially when dipped in a soy-chili-calamansi sauce. Yum!

North Park Ultimate Noodles costs around P250 or more, but definitely less than P300. For that price, it can serve 2-3 people depending of course on how much they can eat, how much they love noodle soup and if they ordered other dishes. My husband and I would usually share this along with a siopao and North Park's fresh lemonade during merienda and we'd always be full enough to skip dinner.
