#5月好去处2025
Won the Michelin Food Award in 2024🍜
Before I walked into the alley near the Ruins of St. Paul's in Macau, I never thought that a bowl of noodles that looked so simple would make me unforgettable for a long time.
🌀This is the magic of Xiangji Noodle House.

🏮【A century-old brand, a bowl of noodles that can talk】
Xiangji Noodle House is a classic in the old streets of Macau. It focuses on tradition-the chef uses his feet to press the dough and knead it by hand, which gives it this special chewy taste. You can tell it's not an ordinary noodle as soon as you eat it.

🍜【Signature must-order: Shrimp noodles】
I was a little surprised when I saw this bowl of noodles for the first time-the clean noodles were sprinkled with golden shrimp powder. There was no soup or side dishes, but as soon as I put it in my mouth, I knew: "This is the essence."
The noodles are super chewy! Very chewy, absorbing the salty fragrance of the shrimp powder.
The shrimp vermicelli is fried by themselves, the taste is very rich but not fishy, it is the kind of taste that becomes more and more addictive the more you eat it🧡
It is recommended to add a little bit of their special chili oil, the layers burst instantly!

🗺️【Location & Atmosphere】
Xiangji Noodle House is located in Fulongxin Street, not far from Senado Square and the Ruins of St. Paul's. The sign is very low-key, with small red letters saying "Xiangji Noodle House", but there is often a queue outside, and you can tell at a glance that it is a secret base for gourmets.
The store is not big, with wooden tables and iron chairs, old newspapers and menus hanging on the wall, and the atmosphere is nostalgic.
The moment you sit down, you will have a sense of reality that "this is not sightseeing, it is life".

💰【Price】
Shrimp noodles are about MOP $42
It is very affordable and can be used as a "super value food relay station" during your journey!

🧳Summary: A bowl of seemingly simple noodles is a taste of history and persistence
At Xiangji, you won’t get the exaggerated IG food, no pomp, no decoration.
But you will taste the soul and skills of a city, and the feel and taste of the old noodle master who has been stepping on it for decades.
So I say: "Xiangji Noodle House" is not a sightseeing, but the taste of memories.
