Thoughts: This is the 11th visit to USJ1 Damen Mall's "有間麵館GO Noodle House", and last visit was March 5.2022 for a  rm$20.90 "酸菜深海石斑魚片湯麵 Pickled Vegetable Deep Sea Grouper Fish". BUT of course, GO Noodle's signature was their rm$9.50 "漿爆丸麵 Bursting Meatball Noodles" 7 years ago on October 22.2016.

GO Noodle House was the brain child of Mr Lee Hon Wai, Mr Alvin Tan Kok Meng, and MR Mok Wai Peun in 2014. AND in June 2014, they opened the first GO Noodle House outlet in Jaya One, Petaling Jaya. The success of our first outlet, as noted by the lengthy queue during meal times, encouraged us to expand the GO experience throughout the country. Today, GO Noodle has at least 37 Outlets in Malaysia and Australia with 2 Brands "有間麵館GO Noodle House" and "有麵食 GO Street Noodle ". 

Besides their original signature Noodles with 漿爆丸麵 Bursting Meatballs, the Noodle House have added a variety of Noodle and other Ala-Carte choices since 2014. AND latest is their "娘惹咖哩 Nyonya Curry" with Seafood or of course their Bursting Meatballs! BUT today's dinner is a rm$17.90 "奶香酸菜三鮮北方餃子 Milky Pickled Vegetables Chinese Dumplings" with 10 mid-size Dumplings in a milky broth with a 大番茄 large tomato plus lots of 酸菜 pickled vegetables and top with 炒洋蔥 fried onion and 歐芹 parsley. 

"北方三鮮餃子 Northern SanXian Dumplings" is a type of 多種食材剁碎混合而做成餡製成的餃子 dumpling made from a variety of ingredients minced and mixed into fillings. It is a popular type of Dumpling in Northern part of China. AND the signature is its "三鮮 SanXian" ingredients which makes it fresh! BUT perhaps there are 2 types: "素三鮮 vegetarian SanXian" where the dumpling and fillings are with 雞蛋 Egg, 韭菜 Leek and 蝦皮 Shrimp skin (not sure its pure vegetarian) AND another type is "肉(葷)三鮮 meat SanXian" which comes with 豬肉 pork meats + 韭菜 leek and 蝦仁 prawns. Today's "GO Noodle House" concoction is probably a variant of it with the 酸菜 pickled vegetables and 乳白色高湯 milky broth! 

餃子 Chinese Dumpling today are still widely consumed and it is a must food item during the 新春佳節 Chinese New Year and especially in the 北方 Northern part of China. The history of Chinese Dumpling is an interesting one; dumpling consumption is thought to have begun around 200 BCE (2200 years ago) during the 漢朝 Han Dynasty. BUT the many names are interesting for the past 2000 over years; for example, 三國時期 Three Kingdoms period (AD 220-280) is called "月牙餛飩 Crescent tooth Wonton", then the 南北朝時期 Northern and Southern Dynasties (AD 420–589) were called as "Huen Tuen 餛飩"，唐代 Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) has the interesting name of "偃月形餛飩"，宋代 Sung Dynasty (AD 960-1276) was called "角子 Jiozi"，元代 Yuan Dynasty (AD 1271-1368) has the name of "扁食 Bianshi"; and the 清朝 Qing Dynasty (AD 636-1912) finally started to use as the current name as "餃子 Jiozi".

Thoughts: Disappointed with the expensive rm$20.90 "酸菜深海石斑魚片湯麵 Pickled Vegetable Deep Sea Grouper Fish". The 酸菜 Picked Vegetable and 胡椒粒 Peppercorns just were too overwhelming for my liking, may be its me but I think fish meats were not that fresh; I have expected much more for the price! Then again, it is all a personal taste as many people may like this kind of noodle recipe else the Expert Chef of 有間麵館 GO Noodle House may not have created such a combination of Pickled Vegetable Noodle recipe, and perhaps for a certain market segment. However, have always liked their "红枣枸杞茶 Dates Wolfberry Tea".

BUT today is the 10th visit to USJ1 Damen Mall's 有間麵館 GO Noodle House, and last having their signature 爆酱鱼丸麵 Bursting Meatball Noodle was 08.June.2020, and maybe should stick to that next time. And the 祖傳鮮油幹撈板麵 Special Dark Sauce Pan Mee sampled on October 7, 2018 also wasn't too bad.

Thoughts: First visit here for at Damen "有間麵館 GO Noodle HOUSE" Signature noodle, the "漿爆丸麵 Bursting Meatball Noodles" was Oct 22, 2016 when the Noodle House was newly opened in USJ 1's Damen Mall. Back then, the new restaurant attracted crowds with constant long queues for that Signature noodle. The Noodle house has survived the 591th day of the Pandemic since March last year, and has recently started to allow for Dine-in again. 
Fun Facts: 有間麵館 GO Noodle House is a Malaysian "Noodle branding" which was created by 3 long time friends: Mr Lee Hon Wai (an Interior Designer), Alvin Tan Kok Meng (the Kitchen man), and 莫先生 Mok Wai Peun (a Real Estate professional); first opened in KL in 2014. According to one of its founder, the name of the restaurant was inspired from a Hong Kong movie called "鹿鼎記Ⅱ神龍教 The Royal Tramp II" when 韋小寶 Wei XiaoBao (周星馳 Stephen Chow) said "咦, 有間客棧喔" in the 27:30min of the movie! The noodles house started with 3 locations in One Utama, Publika, and Jaya One respectively in 2014-15. And today, 有間麵館 GO Noodle House has 37 or more outlets in 馬來西亞 Malaysia, 新加坡 Singapore, and 澳大利亞 Australia, and with plans to expand further into 新西蘭 New Zealand, 越南 Vietnam, 韓國 Korea,印度尼西亞 Indonesia and the 菲律賓 Philippines!

BUT the story began with the 3 friends having dinner at Alvin Tan's house where Alvin's mother prepared a "潮州海鮮湯飯 Teochew soupy rice dish" with a yellow rice wine (紹興花雕酒 Shao Xing Hua Diao Jiu). Mr Lee was so impressed with the superior soup dish that he convinced his friends to build a business based entirely on this flavorful broth! Alvin Tan's mother's (潮州人 Teochew people) taught the recipe to the Trio the secret family recipe handed down from the 清朝流傳下來的一種祖傳秘製湯 "Qing Dynasty Secret soup recipe". Instead of rice, the Trio experimented near a 1000 trails to get the perfect noodle-broth combinations, and the rest was history. The 原鍋湯頭 original pot, which has been boiling continuously from the beginning, is still kept in a fireproof room in Shah Alam. Everything bowl of GO noodle begins from this original pot that feeds all the different outlets in Malaysia.

Instead of bursting meat ball noodle, today's lunch is set lunch "客家板麵配皮蛋 Hakka Pan Mee w/Century Egg" that comes with a drink (普洱茶 Pu'Er tea or top-up rm$0.90 for 枸杞茶 Wolfberry Tea) plus 1 of 4 choices of side dishes (selected the "五香肉卷 Mini Pork Roll"). The 客家板麵 Dry Hakka Pan Mee comes with minced pork meat, a sliced 皮蛋 century egg, and either 粗麵條 thick or 幼麵條 thin noodles. Sides are 炸江魚仔 fried anchovies, 木耳 fungus, 炸洋葱 fried onions, crunchy 猪油炸 pork lards, finally garnished with 葱 green onions, and 芫荽 Coriander.

Another interesting business development is the availability of the (GNH) Noodle House's signature products in frozen form. That includes their pride "有間麵館上湯 GO Superior Soup" and "爆漿肉丸 Bursting Meat Balls" and many other GNH Products via their Web Store or Shopee.
