8. Hakka Marble Restaurant
Nothing prepares us for the shock when we heard that apparently, there’s white broth loh mee out there. Breaking from the norm of dark-coloured broth, Hakka Marble’s loh mee might look plain but don’t let that appearance fool you. It tastes as scrumptious as its dark-coloured relative! For an extra kick, a few drops of vinegar would be more than sufficient.
