We went back to this place again the other day and yes, the beef noodles stall…
…that I was looking for was open, the third one in that section of the shop.
On our previous visit, we liked what we had from the second stall and I thought the kueh chap I had from the first one, the kampua mee stall, was good too.
There is this chu char (cook & fry) place at the back…
…and I heard that they were actually here before and I quite liked what we had that one time we were there. It seems that the son has taken over and if anyone is keen, he or she can choose to sit in the air-conditioned section next door…
Perhaps I will do that one of these days but this time around, I was there for the beef noodles.
My friend posted photos of what he had here on Instagram and Facebook and he said that they were originally from here. Well, if they were from there, then they would be the ones from here – where they were later…before moving here, that is. There was an elderly lady before and there is one here too but I could not recall what she looked like so I am not really sure if she is the one and the same. There is a young man with her now – there wasn’t any in the past – and it seemed that he did all the cooking while she did the serving.
If I remember correctly, my friend also said that they had something like the Vietnamese pho but when I asked, they did not seem to have anything like that. This is the menu displayed at the stall…
…and as far as I can tell, the regular is RM7.00 a bowl – it used to be RM6.00 way back then but of course, we asked for the special (RM10.00)…
…with their own-made noodles…
…and yes, it was so very good…
…good till the last drop!
The chili dip was really nice too, very spicy and the serving was huge – we were so very full after we were through. I certainly would not mind going back there for more!
YONG GARDEN RESTAURANT CAFE (2.290559, 111.832248) is located at Foochow Lane in one corner at the back of the shops as you turn right into the lane. It is also accessible via Hardin Walk and as a matter of fact, it is more convenient to use this road to get there instead of the one aforementioned as it is actually beside this road on the left.
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
