7 Asian Noodle Soups You'll Love To Slurp On Rainy Evenings
Monsoon Diet: 7 Asian Noodle Soups To Dispel Rainy Day Blues
1. Vietnamese Pho
This Vietnamese classic is light yet rich. This fragrant broth is simmered with star anise, cloves, onion, herbs and other wholesome ingredients. The rice noodles in pho are slippery and soft, while thin slices of chicken melt in your mouth. There are a few different kinds of pho, and each is worth exploring.
2. Japanese Ramen
In a rush? Can't cook?
Deep, slurpable, and full of umami, ramen is pure comfort in a bowl. The main types are Shoyu, Shio, Miso, and Tonkotsu. Each variety has its charm, and you can also choose to customise the flavours to your liking. If you're feeling sluggish due to monsoon blues, order your favourite ramen bowl online via a food delivery app.
3. Thai Khao Soi
Don't confuse this one with Burmese Khao Suey, though it does share a few similarities. Khao Soi's roots lie in the northern hills of Thailand. This spicy, coconut-laced curry noodle soup is just the right amount of creamy. Egg noodles add wonderful texture to the dish. The heat warms you from within, making it perfect for wet weather.
4. Malaysian Laksa
This Malaysian noodle soup has several versions. A popular one features spicy curry paste, creamy coconut milk and a tangle of rice noodles. It is often topped with beans, egg and tofu/chicken, making it a protein-rich delight. When you need a noodle soup that's relatively healthy yet delicious, opt for laksa.
5. Tibetan Thukpa
This rustic Himalayan noodle soup contains a clear broth, chunky vegetables and chicken/meat. You can choose to include a veg protein instead of meat in thukpa. The hand-pulled noodles soak up every drop of flavour, which makes this dish irresistible. A hint of chilli paste gives it the perfect kick to beat the damp cold.
6. Cantonese Wonton Noodle Soup
This noodle soup is elegant and satisfying. It features yummy wontons floating in a flavourful broth with springy egg noodles. It's the kind of dish that feels like a reset button for your soul and system on a slow, rainy day. Many Asian restaurants have this kind of noodle soup on their menus. If you don't feel like making it from scratch, simply order it online.
7. Korean Kimchi Jjigae with Noodles
Korean Kimchi jjigae becomes even more indulgent when paired with chewy noodles. The broth of this kimchi ramen stew has bold flavours you will love. It's a fiery pick-me-up when the rain just won't let up. If you're craving something different from the usual soup-and-noodle combinations, this one is sure to impress.

Typhoon Wipha rains batter Hong Kong, head toward China
Rain pounded Hong Kong on Sunday as Typhoon Wipha skirted southwards, packing winds exceeding 167 kph (103 mph), disrupting 400 flights and public transport, felling hundreds of trees, and damaging a construction site. Just after 4 p.m. on Sunday, weather authorities lowered the typhoon signal in the Asian financial hub to 8 from the maximum of 10, which had been hoisted for nearly seven hours, while more than 110 mm (4 inches) of rain fell within three hours. Much of the rain concentrated on the northern region neighbouring the mainland, the city's observatory said, warning of more to come. In a statement, the government said 26 people sought treatment in public hospitals, while 253 flocked to its shelters, and 471 fallen trees were reported. In North Point near the city's harbour, large swathes of scaffolding were swept off a residential building and onto the road. As Wipha tracks westward across the South China Sea it is expected to make landfall later on Sunday between Zhuhai and Zhanjiang in the southern province of Guangdong, state-run broadcaster CCTV said. Authorities in neighbouring Macau, the world's biggest gambling hub, also downgraded the typhoon signal to 8 from 10, warning of flooding in its inner harbour area and urging residents to stay safe, public broadcaster TDM said. Hong Kong's airport authority said 80,000 travellers were hit by the rescheduling of 400 flights forced by the typhoon. Cathay Pacific Airways cancelled all flights with Hong Kong airport between 5 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday. It waived ticket change fees and arranged for rebooking.

Typhoon Wipha wreaks havoc in Hong Kong, strong winds topples trees and destroys scaffolding
Rains from Typhoon Wipha pounded Hong Kong on Sunday (July 20) as the storm skirted southwards before making landfall on the coast of China's Guangdong province. The storm left Hong Kong with fallen trees and damaged scaffolding and forced over 200 people to seek refuge in temporary shelters. Hong Kong's weather authorities downgraded the typhoon warning to a No. 3 strong wind signal at 7:45 p.m (11:45GMT). Just after 4 p.m. (0800GMT), the typhoon signal in the Asian financial hub was lowered to 8 from the maximum of 10, which had been hoisted for nearly seven hours. "Compared to previous typhoons like Mangkhut and Hato, which caused much more astonishing destruction, the impact this time was primarily limited to fallen trees and collapsed scaffolding," Eastern District councillor Kenny Yuen told reporters.
