Betong Noodles in Songkhla

"I could come here and eat their Wanton Noodles every single day. It’s quite different from our hometown wanton mee, where the noodles’ key element is the sauce, a mix of soy sauces and lard oil that coats the noodles in a savory, umami-rich flavor. Here, however, the sauce has a distinct sweetness, with the highlight being the caramelized, sweet-savory topping made from a richer, thicker sauce than what you’d find in Penang. Similar to Penang’s version, the noodles are yellow, springy egg noodles, but they’re served drier compared to ours, which are usually mixed with more runny sauce. Betong’s caramelized pork is the defining feature, while Penang typically uses standard char siu. For the medium to large version here, they include homemade pork balls, some minced pork, crispy roast pork and crispy pork rinds."

"Good Food choise and delicious. No air con. Coffee good. 1st floor small old traditional house muzium."

"Noodle was yummy. Pork skin was so crispy & overall was good. Worth to be back."

"The Betong noodles & Hatyai Dim Sum are connected to each other. So you can order from both shop & sit either one shop. All the food tasted good. Some speak Chinese some don't."

"**CASH ONLY** ​Betong Signature Noodle: This dish is highly recommended and tastes similar to Singaporean Wonton Mee. ​Boiled Siewmai: Awesome! The texture is notably firmly (firm and springy). It's best enjoyed when eaten with Chinese vinegar. ​ However, ​Betong Tomyam Noodle: The dish is "nice," but the Tomyam flavor needs to be stronger for a more authentic taste. It would be greatly improved if served with a slice of lime. ​Coffee: Requires significant improvement. It was too sweet and lacked the flavor (or essence) of coffee. ​Kaki (Pig Trotter/Leg): This dish was rated as just "ok ok" (average). This place excels at its signature noodles and dim sum, but those looking for strong Tomyam flavors or good coffee might be disappointed."

"Generous portion, normal dish amounted THB49 and special dish THB69. Pork knuckle taste difference from normal Thai style, absolutely delicious. Per the bowl I’d ordered , cost THB100. Free chinese tea & soup but self service."

"Betong wanton mee is a must-try for any noodle enthusiast. It's a lighter, more aromatic, and arguably more "pure" expression of wanton mee. It banks on the high quality of its three core components: the fragrant lard-based sauce, the incredibly springy noodles, and the delicious, honey-glazed char siu. If you're expecting the dark, heavy comfort of KL-style sauce, you might be surprised. But if you appreciate texture and fragrant, clean flavours, the Betong version is an absolute delight."

"Came here on a weekday early afternoon and it was already filled with customers. I didn’t have to wait for a table since I was alone but be prepared to share table with others as there’s a lunch crowd. Initially I thought the portion would be small given the prices but I was wrong. I ordered the small size and the portion was quite big! Crispy pork skin was good too. The staff were all very friendly and some of them can speak basic mandarin and English!"
