Founded in 2013, Lao Ma Ban Mian gained fame in Taiwan for its premium instant noodles before expanding into proper eateries across Taiwan and Hong Kong. What makes these instant noodles special is the use of Tainan sun-dried Guan Miao noodles, known for its distinctive chewy yet soft texture. The packaged instant noodles can be found in Singapore at FairPrice supermarkets for S$13.50 per pack of four.

While Lao Ma Ban Mian originally started with instant noodles, the Singapore outlet will focus exclusively on the in-store dining experience, thanks to a collaboration with local food group, Select Group. The casual eatery seats 68.

The Singapore outlet will serve two types of Guan Miao noodles: Wavy ones designed to soak up rich sauces, and straight noodles that turn silky in soup. They use the same noodles as the ones found in their instant packets. However, the restaurant's offerings are elevated with house-made soups and sauces, plus fresh toppings.
