Gonghin Fresh Noodle Supply

Cantonese Chinese noodle restaurant. TOTALLY LEGIT. They have a big menu of noodle soups and (my favourite) mix noodles but if you’re not into noodles they have rice dishes, soups, sides, pancakes too. Another cheap eat in Auckland (YAAAAAY!!! i need these places, such a good break on my wallet) usually it’s around $ 10 per person if you share side dishes and get a bowl of noodles each.
Today we ordered:
Beef Offal Noodle Soup
Soft tender beef offal in a not too heavy beef soup (meaning not TOOOO much MSG, in Chinese restaurants you can’t avoid it… really…), chewy pillowly noodles and some actualy vegetables!!! To be honest, i prefer Beef Offal Noodle Soup at other places but my workmate think this one taste more genuine rather than covered in MSG and processed too much? i still like it if i add vinegar and chili sauce and still totally worth the money
Pork Ribs Mix Noodles
I didn’t try this one but my workmates said the spareribs were so tender and tasty and cooked to perfection. The noodles were a tad bland on its own but if eaten with the spareribs then it’s perfect. Soup on the side was bland «like peppery water and spring onions»
Tomato Beef Mix Noodles
This really reminds me of Guangzhou as i always order this in restaurants for a quick meals. Nearly ALL small restaurants have this in rice version in Guangzhou. It is simply a «wet» stirfry of sweet tomatoes, juicy tender beef pieces, and scrambled eggs all served on top of tender soft noodles. The sauce is like a gravy texture and is oh so good however my workmates think otherwise and said its like a Chinese Spaghetti Bolognese haha so true. Maybe im a bit biased on this dish.
Bean Curd Salad
Best dish of today. Bean curd is the thin layer of «skin» you get when the soy milk is settling. Its a firm yet soft-​ish texture as the «skin» is layered on top of each other (if that even makes sense). The sauce is a vinegar, sesame oil «fresh» sort of taste with sprinklings of fresh cucumber and carrots. Definitely a must!
Seaweed Salad
One of our favourites! Its similar to the Japanese version but flavour is not that heavy on the MSG. More of a garlicy, vinegar, (some MSG), sesame oil dressing? We always order this at Chinese Restaurants if we have the chance.
Other things i recommend you ordering:
Chives pancake! very tasty yet crispy; Cold noodles in a chili sesame sauce… its the last one on the first page and its soooooo nice and cheap!!!; Sweet and sour soup is also very very nice here with confirmation from a few of my friends haha
The service is good and attentive (i dropped my chopsticks by accident and wasn’t even fast enough to beat the waitress, she came and picked it up and got me a clean pair too… and i was sitting right next to the condiments/​cutlery … so nice!). English could be a little bit better but they will understand you enough to feed you, if not… its a good way to practice your Mandarin/​Cantonese!
