No, it’s not me-e, the regular noodles, it’s kway teow (flat rice noodles)…
If you remember, we were here quite recently and my missus had the mee, the tan hua mien (egg flower noodles), to be exact from this stall at the back…
…and it turned out to be our not-so-yellow noodles in tomato egg gravy. I was thinking then that it would be nicer with kway teow instead so when we dropped by the other morning, that was exactly what I ordered (RM5.00)…
…but wait a minute!!! Whatever happened to all the ingredients that my missus had in her plate that day? This time around, there were no intestines, just two bits of liver and a couple of tiny prawns. Ok, it tasted quite good but if it is tomato kway teow, I think I do know of a couple of places here that do it a whole lot better.
My missus had the pai kut (pork ribs) mee (RM6.00)…
…this time. Do not be deceived by the optical illusion – that looked like there was so little because of the enormous plate they used. In actual fact, there was quite a lot and it was quite a struggle for my missus to finish.
I thought the egg…
…was a little over-fried, but just a little – I would prefer the yolk to be more runny than this but at least, it was more nicely done than some that I had had elsewhere.
The pork ribs…
…were very nicely done, very tender. I did try the noodles too and I thought it was all right, not something to get me jumping up and down with delight but it was not bad.
On the whole, we thought both our orders were good enough to consider having again whenever we’re in the vicinity and perhaps, I would put in a request for a little less msg next time – it was not too bad and others would be perfectly comfortable with that but me being ultra-sensitive to the “white stuff”, I could feel it and I would rather do without that.
