Meng Kee Char Siew - Glenmarie

We wanted to try the siew yuk (roast pork) but it was all sold out. So was the wonton noodle :(

We ended up with just char siew (BBQ Pork) and sausage.

The char siew was really nice. I think I like the char siew here more than the one in Famous Seremban Favorite


Taugeh...nice and crunchy. Better than most other places I've been to.


The bill came to RM33.00 for what you see above, two plates of rice and two glasses of warm Chinese tea.

Ming Kee Claypot Chicken Rice - Kepong Baru

Again, another stall that caught my attention because of there were always many patrons there. This one was selling claypot chicken rice. I just had a good one in Brickfields and thought it'd be interesting to make a comparison so I checked this one out.

Claypot chicken rice. The chicken was quite dry. There was salted fish too but it's all pre-mixed in the rice.


Lotus root soup with chicken feet.




Total cost: RM11.50 including soup and a glass of cold kumquat. I think it's quite pricey. The chicken rice wasn't very good at all, and far behind this one in Brickfield, which cost me only RM8 (no soup). Working it backward, that was like I paid RM4.50 for the soup?

Anyway, I doubt I will visit this stall again.

Restoran Famous Seremban Favourites

I have been told that the char siew in this place is really great so I decided to give it a try one day.

Char Siew (BBQ Pork). This was nice but perhaps we set our expectation too high. It just wasn't as tender I'd liked them to be.


Siew Yuk (Roasted Pork). The skin was quite hard and not very crispy. Totally subpar compared to places like Kuala Lipis Noodle but too bad it closed down already.


Sui Gao. There were 5 in this bowl. Totally unimpressive. Just like any other sui gao you could get anywhere.


Hakka Mee. Better than the average types I have tried elsewhere but yuck, too much MSG in it. Or maybe the MSG was from some other dishes. The point was, I was thirsty from as soon as we finished eating (12:30pm) till late in the afternoon!


Hakka Lo Shu Fun. I thought this is a Teochiew noodle, no?








Price: RM57.30 for the four of us including four glasses of Chinese tea.

Restoran Heng Hwat - Selayang Baru

I posted about the rather pricey (but very good) RM8.60 roast duck rice in Menjalara and a friend of mine suggested I try out this place. I actually made it there just the following day!

I ordered a mix of siew yuk (roast pork), char siew (bbq pork) and siew ngap (roast duck). All in one plate.

All three items were not very good. Quite tough and chewy. No crunchy, crispy skin on the siew yuk.

Just the same plate but from a different angle!


Again, the same plate.


Only RM9.00 for this plate, including rice, and hot Chinese tea. Really quite cheap.
