These noodles are indeed tasty and satisfying.  Every morsel can be swallowed as there are no bones to pick!  Great to enjoy with a hot cup of  Chinese tea, right in front of your TV screen!

    The noodles are the wonton mee type, but flat and thicker ones, so 1 'ball' for 1 serving.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.
