It was raining today at lunch, and since I found myself in Wynyard Station, it was a good opportunity wait out the rain by trying out "noodlemee". Noodlemee, which translated means "noodlenoodle", has a variety of made-to-order noodle and rice dishes, as well as a counter of ready-made dishes.
I ordered one of the more unusual dishes on the made-to-order menu, called "ramen and rice". Which described the meal pretty well. The ramen was in a mildly spicy soup with egg stirred into it, and was quite tasty and not too salty. The noodles looked and tasted like your usual instant noodles - which is perfectly fine, but doesn't quite live up to the full name of restaurant, which is "noodlemee - home made fresh noodles". Now the rice - to be honest, I wasn't sure what to do with it! I ended up putting the rice in the soup, but perhaps the noodles are supposed to be a dish to be eaten with rice. If you know, please enlighten me! In any case, the rice was quite nice soaked in the soup. By the end of the meal, I had drunk most of the soup.
Other dishes that noodlemee has are stir fried noodles, laksa, Korean jjigae and bibimbap. If you dine in, they have dolsot bibimbap, in a hot stone bowl. Always a nice treat for lunch!
Noodlemee is in Wynyard Station, on the left hand ramp leading up to George Street.
