STORY BEHIND THE RECIPE<\/span><\/h1>\n

When I was growing up, there was an old man who lived at the back lane of my house. He used to prepared the Hae Mee Soup (Prawn Noodle Soup)\u00a0 very early in the morning, and his, in my opinion, was the best in the world! It was really \u771f\u6750\u5b9e\u6599 (authentic good stuff without MSG!).<\/p>\n

This man would carry 2 big heavy wooden boxes with a long wooden poles across his shoulders. The boxes contained charcoal stoves. One stove was for the hot prawn soup that he prepared and the other was for a pot of hot water for cooking the other ingredients on the spot.<\/p>\n

On hind sight, I cannot imagine how tough it was for him to make a decent living. His business was invariably good. Before he started his daily peddling, there would already be a long queue forming in front of his house. My brother and I would bring our tiffin carriers to buy the prawn noodle soup for breakfast for our family almost every week.\u00a0 The taste was unforgettable!<\/p>\n
