Manjalara Pork Noodle

I've came to realized that pork noodles are one of the very popular choices for breakfast and lunch especially for working classes. Not lacked of options around PJ & KL area, namely Ah Or in Sunway Mentari, Taman Bahagia corner coffee shop, Subang SS15, OUG seafood pork noodle. Let me brief you through how I rate them.

Ah Or Mentari - taste ok, a little too salty, overpriced. You'll need to drink a lot of water after that (too much MSG)

Bahagia - over-salty & oily, never fancy this

SS15 - Above average and it's better than his sister's stall in mentari 

OUG - they were once pretty good, quality dropped. But that particular coffee shop serves very good teh ice, don't forget to order one.

Alright, let's come back to this pork noodle that I frequent the most. 

Pork lard topping is already a must for a standard bowl of pork noodle because it just gives you the extra 'ohm' in terms of the smell and taste density. We always think pork noodle goes best with 'lou shu fun', and we never like the yellow noodle because the alkaline taste would affect the taste of soup. This bowl here has generous amount of pork slices and a piece of minced pork which is pretty good in terms of taste and texture. A couple slices of pig's liver were cooked to perfection, not too cooked not too raw. Remember to eat the liver first or it will be overcooked by the hot soup if you leave it till the end. The reason why I rate this highly is because only minimal amount of oil used, the soup is clearer and saltiness level is just nice to my liking. Most importantly, I don't feel thirsty after that = no MSG !

If you're looking for good bowl of  pork noodle, here's the place.

Price Range: 

Standard bowl : RM 5.00

 Large Bowl: RM 6.50

Al Diafah Sri Petaling- Arabian Food

Al Diafah located in Sri Petaling is a posh Arabian Restaurant. The design and decoration of the shop is elegant and posh. The restaurant is located at the first floor of the shop. The ground floor of the shop is selling dates. All kind of premium dates are available.

We order the Arabian tea for sharing. Surprisingly it was very good. It has hint of spices in it. The tea was very smooth and doesn't contain any aftertaste.

For starter we order the hummus, it is a chicken pea blend and topped with olive oil, breads were provided and the fluffiness of the bread goes really well with the hummus. It is a little salty, a little sweet and full of chicken pea fragrance, texture is like mashed potato. Worth trying! It would be perfect if the bread was served hot from oven.

Lamb mendy was next up.The lamb is actually hidden under the briyani rice. Portion is huge enough for sharing of two person. The lamb mendy is very good and we actually wiped everything off in 15 mins. The briyani cooked with butter is fluffy and aromatic with a hint of lamb smell. The lamb is tender and juicy. This is a must try dish for all lamb lovers.

It costs us RM35 for this dish and we will definitely come back for it. 

There are other dishes available if you're not a fans of lamb. There are also roasted chicken, mendy chicken etc etc..

The mendy rice is definitely worth giving a try.

They're doing a lunch take-away promotion recently, Lamb Mendy is only at RM18, Chicken Mendy at RM10, smaller portion but good enough for a hungry man.

Shin Kee Beef Noodles（新九如牛肉粉）-Petaling Street

Shin Kee Beef Noodles（新九如牛肉粉）-Petaling Street

Shin Kee is the only reason we drove down to Petaling Street foregoing all the traffic jam and limited parking space.  It is very hard to get a good bowl of beef noodles in Klang Valley nowadays. We can say that this the best beef noodles in town compare to the many available around.

Shin Kee is located at next to petaling street at the small corner of the row of shop lot. Open daily from 10.30 am to 8.30 pm closed on Wednesday.

As usual we order the mix beef noodles consist of cow's tripe, mixed internal organs and beef balls, we also add on a bowl of beef slice soup.

The noodles serve here are hand made noodles not the normal alkaline yellow noodle. Noodles are springy and has no alkaline taste. They also serve another type of home made noodles, whitish short noodle(lou shu fun), dont expect it to be the normal qq lou shu fun serve at other places ,the noodles here tend to be less springy probably they didn't put any boric acid. Every bowl of dry noodles top with minced beef which were superbly tasty.

The beef balls have nothing to shout about but is still better than Ngau Kee (Jalan Tong Shin) beef balls.  The tripes are soft and yummy. Some of the unknown organs are tasty as well.

The beef slices soup are highly recommend. Slices of beef were cooked to perfection, tender and strong in flavor. You can still see pinkish in most of the beef slice. The soup of this bowl compare to the mixed organs are totally different, fresh beef slices had definitely made the soup far more superior in taste and aroma.

The meal cost us RM 14.

If you are a supper person, you can always visit the stall operate by the same person in petaling street, outside the foodcourt, they open until late night.

Madras Lane 's Curry Laksa

Madras Lane 's Curry Laksa

We went down to Petaling Street earlier to Shin Kee for lunch. As we pass by the madras lane we were tempted by the aunty at the noodle stall. We order a bowl of her curry laksa to try out. Well nothing beats a piping hot bowl of curry laksa on a gloomy Monday. 

This bowl of curry laksa cost RM 5.00. Consist of fried pork skin, long bean, brinjal, bean curd and cockles. there are few types of curry laksa to be found in KL, first is the more diluted soup, second is the thick chicken curry soup, this bowl is neither diluted nor thick, it falls in between both of them, more towards the pasar kind of Curry noodle. The cockles were cooked to perfection and it was one of the plus point, however, we were disappointed the chilli paste, lack of oomph and taste kinda normal to us.

Taste wise, it is decent enough to give it a try when you happen to be in around that area.
