Mama’s Breakfast of Wonders @ Wondermama

October 22, 2012 | 9,883 views

Chef Fandee's Mee Goreng

Tell me your story about a favourite spot for breakfast in KL. Do you prefer time-honoured kopitiams or do you like modern cafes?

Is your heart moved by the sight of two runny half-boiled eggs on buttered toast; paired with an aromatic brew of coffee? Or have you an aversion to a breakfast of champions; the BIG Western platter with every possible artery-clogging materials known to men?

Come what may; thunderstorms & an everlasting congestion this monstrosity of a Monday; let me share with you this quaint spot ambitiously named Wondermama in Bangsar.

Bangkok Lane Mee Goreng vs Sin Hwa Char Koay Teow @ Jalan Burmah, Penang

June 24, 2010 | 24,395 views

Since we are already on a roll here, almost consecutive posts on noodles (Beef Noodles, Siamese Laksa, Laksa Pak Ngah, Mee Hailam & Mee Goreng) throughout the month of June, let’s top them all off with a duel between two of the MOST prominent noodles stalls in all of Penang; situated within a stone’s throw from each other.

Mahboob Bangkok Lane Mee Goreng

BANGKOK LANE MEE GORENG @ SENG LEE COFFEE SHOP

Kedai Kopi Sin Hwa

SIN HWA CHAR KOAY TEOW (CKT) – THE FAMOUS CKT OPPOSITE OF PULAU TIKUS POLICE STATION

Yup, both in Penang, and both on Jalan Burmah. Albeit the Bangkok Lane’s Mee Goreng is usually recognized as THE indomitable “Indian Mee Goreng of Bangkok Lane“, for the sole reason that the stall faces the lane (Lorong Bangkok) rather than the main road. And on the opposite side of the road we have Kedai Kopi Sin Hwa that houses a single stall selling Char Koay Teow for breakfast-lunch-tea break (?) and has been on the radar of “CKT-aficionados” who make their annual pilgrimages to Penang for their fix …… Read the rest of this entry »

Fabulous Indian Mee Goreng & Pasembur @ Cathay Mee Stall, Jalan Yang Kalsom

June 22, 2010 | 22,867 views

Mee Goreng

Indian Mee Goreng (RM3.50/USD1.00) – Large portion enough for two, but you’ll have no problems finishing the whole plate, really.

And let me share this place that I have been intending to write about for so long. As I have mentioned before in my post on Mee Hailam Parit, I am not a fan of yellow noodles. I’ll go for Kuey Teow/Sar Hor Fun (flat rice noodles) first, if not then Lou Shu Fun (rat’s tail noodles, I know … it sounds morbid but actually ain’t) followed by Mee Hoon (rice vermicelli noodles). The last resort? The yellow mee; no thanks to various bad experiences with heavy alkaline taste from the lye water used to cure the noodles.

Cathay Mee Stall @ Jalan Yang Kalsom

Look at how chirpy the Indian girl was …. Cathay Mee Stall @ Restoran dan Rumah Tumpangan Beauty Baru – Brisk business come lunch hours, hence be there early. Or very late.

Initially I was skeptical when Mum told me about this great Indian (or Mamak/Indian-Muslim) Mee Goreng (fried yellow noodles) & Pasembur (Indian rojak; a type of salad) stall on Jalan Yang Kalsom. That this stall beats even the famous one at Padang Ipoh in old town, and the various incarnations everywhere else. Heck, there’s even one on Jalan Yang Kalsom itself, at Restoran Sen Yee.

But after tasting a packet of their Mee Goreng brought home by Mum, I was sold ……. and this has been MY personal favourite Mee Goreng in all of Ipoh. This coming from someone who hates his Mee … Read the rest of this entry »
