The stall at the Compass Point (the mall five minutes' walk from our flat) food court that does the fried noodles must have had a change in management. They've certainly had a change in crockery and a change in the the name of the stall. They used to be called Mini Wok, serving up their offering in well, mini woks -- tiny little steel woks that hold just one portion. It was really quite cute, eating off woks that clearly weren't meant to be used for cooking. Now they're Original Manna. Menu's still the same though -- all manner of fried noodles and fried rice. Which look so prosaic in food court melamine plates.
I don't care if they say it's original. But I'm pretty sure that Moses and the Children of Israel did not gather fried vermicelli with the dew every morning.
