Deli Noodles - Crows Nest

My reviews are based on offering value-for-money to the knowledgeable customer. Any food from any culture, whether offered at a restaurant, a food court, a small venue or even at home should follow these KEY principles: "Simple, made with Fresh ingredients and offers Great Value to the customer" "Customers must feel welcomed - an acknowledgement, a smile, a glass of water, etc.."  My Rating for Deli Noodles Crows Nest = 3.5, good food and value-for-money average $10 dishes. Dishes are quickly made with a mix of fresh/not so fresh ingredients. The serves are quite big and filling.  A bit greasy sometimes Eg the beef flat rice noodles. The dishes could improve by the way the veggies are sliced and the way the food is presented on the plate. Sometimes free Chinese tea would be offered, depending on the queue, or the moods of the waitresses, I presume. Definitely, if you work or live in the area, a once-a-week/fortnight place to eat or take-away if you cannot think  of anything else.

I can only describe tonight's dinner as impressive as a primary school junior band performance, with the inclusion of kindergarten clarinets. I ordered the "seafood laksa", and the only literal relevance it had to what I ordered was that some of the ingredients had previously seen food, granted not in this particular restaurant, but probably on their way to this hell kitchen during their distribution phase. The closest thing i could compare it to was the instant 2 minute noodle tom yum soup you buy from the petrol station, except without the flavour. Possibly they got coconut cream mixed up for coconut water, and coconut water mixed up for water. My friend ordered the "special fried rice". In hindsight, it was special in the sense that special needs children need special schools. It was mysteriously dry and oily at the same time, an incredible feat really. Another special surprise was how they managed to remove all flavour from every single ingredient, and had an entire dish which could be likened to wok fried styrofoam with salt.

Haven't been to Deli Noodles for ages but it's comforting to know it is still how I remember it. Friendly and fast service. Takeaway mostly but they do have 6 or so tables to dine in. The place was packed at 6:30pm. One of my favourites is their special fried rice. The best I've ever had, hands down. With the two hour free parking around the corner in the new complex with Woolies etc, finding a park is no longer a drag.
