羊汤 (Mutton Soup Set Meal With Pancake Noodles)

A late lunch @ "百碗羊汤".

 

I see a number of shops of this chain in the city and so was itching to try as I don't mind lamb/mutton at all.

 

The soup was rich and umami (has a fatty taste) but was nowhere as animalic I would assume it to be. I could have mistaken it for pork soup!

 

The slices of mutton were a tad on the tough side but still enjoyable. I am supposed to dunk the pancake noodles (noodles made from pancakes) into the soup to soften it before consuming it, but I find that the noodles were plenty resistant to soak up the flavour of the soup. I was not impressed.

 

One also gets pickled garlic to accompany the soup (which I avoided as I do not wish to get garlic breath) as well as a stick of mint flavoured chewing gum, which I thought was quite considerate! (Chuckle!)
