Hi janice, I have not heard about this. If yes, then this will be great. Because rarely can you find soupy kuey teow here in KL/PJ, let alone one version that’s like Kakak’s.

Oh some sambal for the noodles? To kick things up a notch eh?
But I like my soup to be clearer and like the usual ‘ch’ng tong’ though.
I will try to go Taiping again, but I highly doubt I can find the time once I am in KL.

Hi Calven, thanks for the comment.
Yeah I only knew about the Kakak-ping after I came back from taiping the other day, and did a search around.

Is it barley?

I tried to have the Do Re Mi drink from the Larut Matang Stall, but then again, they served me the usual Nescafe pulak.

Hiyah,

Great review on restoran kakak. in fact, if you ask a “Taiping-lang” the way to eat the noodles is to pour some of the sambal into the noodles and take it all down. Totally in agreement with Calven another hidden stuff in this outlet is their “Ka ka peng”. You have to try it…. . so remember to try the “ka ka peng”!

Hi there, just found out this blog through a shared link from a friend. Thanks for your compliments and glad to see that you’ve enjoyed the food~ Another recommendation to you is perhaps you can try out the “Kakak-ping(ice)” next time, which can be served in either hot & cold, it’s some-kind a mixture of nescafe and “secret” (will only tell u during your next visit :p) which served pretty alot in a day~ and also not miss chili-oil based “sambal” which may give you another kick of spice~

Thank you again for the blog, all the photos are great~!! You are awesome~!

Yes, in Penang i used to called Koay Teow Th’ng, but i could not remember whether Ching Th’ng Hor Fun was been used there during my A level years in the 70s. The Penang Hor Fun was very nice, sticky egg gravy with the koay teow, to my memory it was superior to the Singapore’s Sar Ho Fun.

Oh, and I thought only in Penang do they call this Koay Teow Th’ng? Yeah, I usually address the soup noodles as such, or just plain Ching Thong Hor Fun.

I grew up in Taiping,and now stay in Singapore, i used to called it “koay teow th’ng” in Taiping or even in Singapore, but in Johor Bahru, they called it ” koay teow kia”, a more Teochew way of addresing for this food. In Singapore and JB, they resemble each other by having fish balls and minced pork but no chicken meat.
