This place…
…has been around for a while and even though it is right round the corner from my house, we never felt like dropping by there since we are not really into dim sum – usually lots of msg and you just pick a few items and the price can shoot sky high and besides, we do have a lot of dim sum stalls here and there these days and they are not anything I would want to go for a second time…plus they got the spelling wrong in their shop sign too!
However, I think it is not their fault but a mistake made by the sign maker as they got it right on the cover of their menu…
It was only until I saw somebody sharing somebody’s photos on Facebook and the guy was praising the noodles to the skies that I decided to go there and check it out. Unfortunately, it was on a Tuesday – their off day so I ended up some place else and all this while, everytime I was in the vicinity, it was on a Tuesday…and once, we wanted to go there for lunch but we saw a lot of cars perked outside and we changed our minds right away as we would not like to go any place too crowded.
Well, finally, the other day, I managed to stop by and yes, I had their pork rib noodles (RM8.50)…
…and yes, it was very good. I was wishing they had given me some cut fresh chili in soy sauce though but it seemed that I would have to ask for it – the people at the next table did – and I did not bother to do it. My missus most certainly would or she would not enjoy what she is eating, no matter how nice. LOL!!!
I so love that blue and white ceramic bowl that they used and I would give them the double thumbs up for not using those horrendous NCAA (no class at all) cheap plastic and melamine bowls and plates that they insist on using at a lot of places here.
They have a lot of alluring looking stuff on their menu and this caught my attention…
You can bet I shall go back there one of these days for that! I asked the guy and he said that they open till 8 something at night except on Tuesdays so it would be nice to go here for lunch or dinner, not just breakfast.
