Chu Yuk Fun - Damansara Perdana

After having my CKT at Restoran 8888, Damansara Perdana, I still felt like eating some more so I ordered a bowl of dry chu yuk fun from the stall next to the char kueh teow stall. I have had it here many times and like the chu yuk fun here very much.

Smooth hor fun, and seemingly not so much MSG. Nice, firm and bouncy pork balls too and the soup is very peppery, just the way I like it!


I asked for extra soft sausage. RM5.00 for this bowl.

Ipoh Hor Fun - Damansara Perdana

This place was where I first tried the Ipoh hor fun and I used to enjoy eating there. But I guess I have changed or improved? :D

I rarely order the dry type but since I was in the mood for something different, I went for this instead. I didn't like it though. I think I will go back to the clear soup hor fun. The hor fun wasn't very smooth and all stuck together. Maybe I took too long to take photos?


The chicken was really really fat. While it was tender, for something this fat, I expect it to be really really tender! I hated the oyster sauce. Felt like there was tons of MSG in it. Sure enough, as soon as I finished eating, the MSG-induced thirst started kicking in!

By now, I think I have a clear preference of the type of  poached chicken I like. That would be the type in 15 Tower, Ipoh - not the most tender, but it has nice texture and flavour to it.

Look at how much fat I trimmed out! Yuck!


The bean sprouts were way too soggy and not very crunchy! Really sub par!


I ordered shrimp wanton as well. Only about half of the wantons were crunchy while the rest were not. Didn't taste very fresh!


The four items above, together with a glass of hot Chinese tea, cost me RM12!!!

I personally think taste and price wise, this outlet is far behind the one in TTDI.

Penang Char Kueh Teow - Damansara Perdana

Char kueh teow / char kway teow / char kuey teow / char koay teow, or whatever you want to call it, at Restoran 8888, Damansara Perdana. The owner is from Penang.

The char kueh teow looked great, and tasted quite good too. But not as much "wok hei" as I would have liked. Probably because I got there ahead of the lunch crowd and was the first place he fried for the day?


But it was still very good and I have no doubt I will go back there again and I am ready to brave the Damansara Perdana traffic and parking woes.


3 medium prawns. RM 4.50 per late. I must have gotten too excited and actually forgot to ask for duck egg instead.


I think his name in Frankie. I like the CKT here better than the one in Section 17.




There are two Restoran 8888, back to back.
