Recently, there are a number of new wonton noodle places poppin’ up at various parts of the Greater Toronto Area, I had tried many of them, my favourite wonton place is still “Wonton Hut” located between Hwy 7 & Warden Avenue.
Having said that, I would say Big Trio Wonton Noodle 大三元 is also up there with its chewy and bouncy egg noods and the tasty wrapped shrimp wontons. Thus, today, I went back to memory lane to visit Big Trio Wonton Noodle 大三元 at the South Unionville location (inside Langham Square).
At Big Trio, I ordered a two-kind soup noodles at $14.50 CDN + tax.
1) Shrimp Wonton
2) Beef Tendon
First off, I really like the egg noodles, super chewy, bouncy and “song”, just the way I expect a good bowl of Hong Kong style egg soup noodle.
Lots of green onions which I luv. However, this place don’t serve the “9 Yellow” plant which usually is found at Wonton Noodle Specialty place. A bit disappointment as a sprinkle of “9 Yellow” adds visual, aroma and flavour to the broth.
Broth is nice, clean and doesn’t overpower the rest of the noodle, which is great!
As for the shrimp wonton, it was delicious. When I ordered 2 of a kind, it offers 3 shrimp wontons. I was impressed as the shrimp wonton here has a good size, not too big, not too small. Good bouncy and chewy filling, thin wonton wrap, you could see a wholesome shrimps coupled with marinated shrimp paste.
Many wonton places has cut cost by offering inferior shrimp or less shrimp paste, but here at Big Trio, impressive shrimp wontons. Highly recommended.
As for my beef tendon (2 choice on my soup noodles), it was alright. It lacks marinated flavour. I usually prefer my beef tendon to be more bouncy, chewy and a bit on the stern side. This beef tendon was a bit on the soggy and softer side, not really my cup of tea.
Overall, this is a good HK style soup noodle fix. I may just order shrimp wonton next time, it’s tasty and a bowl would $12.50 CDN + tax if just order one kind vs $14.50 CDN + tax for 2 of a kind.
