SS2 Murni – The Epitome of “Mamak” Stall in Malaysia
April 3, 2008 | 23,940 viewsUPDATED 4 April 2010 with new pictures !!!
The signature Murni’s colourful range of juices in jars – Their ribena with lychee and nata de coco is a MUST-TRY!!!!!
Roti Hawaii – Murtabak (Indian pancake) with a twist
Mee Raja – Fit for a KING, the portion can easily be shared among 2 diners!
Claypot Lou Shu Fun (Rat’s Tail Noodles?!) – Their signature item from their “Chinese menu”
Roti Seafood (I think) – Another Murtabak-like creation, served with a saucer of mayo on the side
Nasi Goreng Seafood – With crispy squid rings, scallops and prawns
Naturally, my eyes strayed to the food the others were eating, as Rule #1 for ordering food : Look at what the others are having. If most ppl order the same thing, it can’t go wrong. The guy next to us was chomping down on HUGE, really really HUGE meatballs spaghetti. the size of a tennis ball. Really. But we ordered Roti Hawaii and Nasi Goreng Seafood. Drinks? Ice Blended Mango and Watermelon.
The Roti Hawaii arrived 1st, as the kitchen kept churning out the same item non stop!! Drizzled liberately with mayonnaise, the fillings were generous, with chicken meat, and sausages. The curry was OK only, but the dhall was pretty nice. It somewhat resembles a murtabak, but different in terms of the fillings.
To my surprise, the waiter served me a HUGE jar of Ice Blended Mango Juice. I though I ordered a small portion, but nvm. Lots of nata de coco, watermelon pieces, and longan, the drink was refreshing, and tasted nothing like cordial drink. The Ice Blended Watermelon was even more of a thirst quencher, and I actually preferred this more than the mango.
The fried rice arrived pretty late, and by that time we were already pretty full from the drinks. Haha… 3 sweet succulent scallops, prawns, filament sticks, deep fried squids, and squids were fried together with the rice, sucking in all the sweet flavours of the sea. Though the price was a little bit steep at RM10 per plate, in my opinion, it was well worth it.
Total? RM24 for all the guilty indulgence. Their menu is VERY extended, covering items such as the popular claypot lou shu fun, to spaghetti, to western chops, and various Indian delights.

thenomadGourmand : yeah, the place is packed wif youngsters, crazy variety of food, but quality-wise … erm, do not expect the sky loh …
the roti hawaii depends on the mood one, sometimes very nicely drizzled/squeezed.

The Mee Raja not bad, fried until dry and bouncy. With lots of ingredients thrown in also. But too large of a portion lah… scary.

Hi wakawaka.
True enough, to get the halal certification is downright hard, with so stringent regulations to follow.
Even Old Town outlets with the Asia-Pacific Halal certification is not enough, it seems.
Only Jakim’s.
It all boils down to how you look at it. We do see Malays patronizing the Chili’s, TGI Friday’s and such in KL frequently, though those outlets serve alcohol.

[…] Now it has always been made known to the world that Malaysians love to eat. And that the country is a haven for food lovers. You get a mixed bag of interesting cuisines under one roof (if you’re dining in food courts and in the malls), or even fusion of cuisines within the same premise (cafes, bistros, and even the new age ‘mamak’ stalls like SS2 Murni).
