    Klang Valley: Delicious Mali’s Corner Koay Teow Basar & Nasi Lemak

    Klang Valley: Delicious Mali’s Corner Koay Teow Basar & Nasi Lemak – When we talk abou Char Koay Teow, we know it’s the fried flat noodle with Chinese-style soy sauce fried with cockles, eggs and beansprout, that’s the Chinese-style. How about the Malay-style? It’s almost the same, but it’s wet! Yeah, wet as in watery filled with gravy and they are delicious, believe me.

    See the queue!

    I’ve heard that Char Koay Teow Wet or Koay Teow Basah (Basah means wet in Malay) originate from Bukit Mertajam, Penang. I’ve tried a nice one in BM, but in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, it seems to be a better one in my opinion!

    Queue for Nasi Lemak!
    Nasi Lemak Ayam Panas, looks interesting.
    Cheap also. RM4 for small, RM5 for big and Special is with extra shrimp and that’s RM6.50.

    Mali’s Corner is the name of the stall located near to TARC (Tunku Abdul Rahman College) which starts business at night, there’s another one outlet with a proper shoplot setup at Platinum Walk on Jalan Genting Klang too. Surprised to see that there’s a long queue for the Char Koay Teow Basah as well as the Nasi Lemak. The queue was not really long, less than 10 minutes can get my hands on a hot plate of Char Koay Teow. However, if you want to order Nasi Lemak, you have to queue again, so I’ve my friend Wei Lee queued for the Nasi Lemak and I queued for the Char Koay Teow.

    They both tasted very well to me and I like both of it! The gravy for the Koay Teow Basah is thick, and very good aroma and it has big cockles! As for the Nasi Lemak, the rice has a nice strong fragrance and the deep fried chicken is crunchy to my loving.

    Got to thanks Wei Lee for introducing me this place. =) By the way, I prefer this place @ Taman Bunga Raya then Platinum Walk because this is more authentic.

  • They Say It’s The Best Char Koay Teow @ Restoran Seng Lee

    They Say It’s The Best Char Koay Teow @ Restoran Seng Lee

    They Say It’s The Best Char Koay Teow @ Restoran Seng Lee – I am so sorry, I am from Penang and I don’t taste that it’s the best Char Koay Teow in Klang Valley yet. Many people told me about this good Char Koay Teow at Restoran Seng Lee, Damansara Heights, I went to try it and I feel the taste has a very strong taste of pepper and garlic. Where’s the lard and soy sauce? Maybe it’s their very own style. It’s still very far from Penang’s typical Char Koay Teow.

    It does not taste bad, it’s OK, but then the koay teow (local call it hor fun) is small and it’s not my favourite. They use different koay teow for this. Well, I am still in search for good Char Koay Teow in Klang Valley, please hit me at the comment area! =)

    By the way, it’s RM5/plate! And it’s just not my type.

    Restoran Seng Lee @ Jalan Batai.

  • Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow

    Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow

    Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow

    (BM) Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow – Bukit Mertajam is famous for duck egg char koay teow, yes or no? That’s what my girlfriend told me. George Town also has duck egg char koay teow, just frying with duck egg is top-up request, where as in Bukit Mertajam, you only get a choice of egg and that’s duck egg. Duck egg makes your char koay teow taste better.

    There’s one good one in Bukit Mertajam that used to locate on the roadside of Jalan Kulim has now moved to a new place, also on Jalan Kulim, but to be exact, is at Kampung Baru, in a coffee shop.

    Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow

    I was having hard time looking for it because there’s not much people posted it on the Internet or Facebook. My girlfriend asked around her friends and finally we found the place.

    Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Char Koay Teow

    At RM4.50 a plate with a deep fried egg omelete. It’s good in the sense of different with others that I’d in George Town. The koay teow is darker because of different soy sauce used and best of all, lots of lards (not healthy though)! The deep fried egg omelette is compliment to the koay teow and it’s a must add-on when you order a plate of this. If the koay teow can be dryer than it will be best.

    Opens only at night, after 8pm.

  • Char Koay Teow For Breakfast At Perak Road Market

    Char Koay Teow For Breakfast At Perak Road Market

    Char Koay Teow For Breakfast At Perak Road Market – After eating the famous Penang Hokkien Prawn Mee at Perak Road (Jalan Perak Pasar) Market, I realised there’s still space in the stomach, not feeling very full, and so I ordered a plate of Char Koay Teow to share with my friends.

    It does looks pretty with a 3 shrimps in it, nicely fried with chilli sauce, and a few slices of Chinese sausage as well as beansprout. The experience with it was not the best, it’s not dry enough in my opinion as the “wok hei” 锅气, the heat / power of the frying wok was not strong enough.

    After all, it does fill up my stomach well, not a bad char koay teow, just a SO-SO typical char koay teow to me, I want something drier, hotter, a little bit more spicy, more beansprout and it will be perfect.

  • Char Koay Teow Basah (Wet) @ Sungai Rambai, Bukit Mertajam

    Char Koay Teow Basah (Wet) @ Sungai Rambai, Bukit Mertajam

    Char Koay Teow Basah (Wet) @ Sungai Rambai, Bukit Mertajam – When we talk about Char Koay Teow, the place “Penang” came into mind, and then it came the huge shrimps, and the dry flat noodles with beansprout, a little bit of hot chilli paste, cockles the the flat noodle pan fried with special soy sauce – Penang’s Char Koay Teow.

    Have you ever wonder what it is when Char Koay Teow is fried by our local Malay friend? It turned from dry to to wet. Malay-style of Char Koay Teow is basically has a special salty and sweet wet sauce which pour onto the flat noodle and is believe that it’s from the little town of Bukit Mertajam.

    With the absence of pork lard, it still however brings another type of surprise to you. It’s a whole new experience of Char Koay Teow.

    On one of the road connecting into Bukit Mertajam town – Jalan Sungai Rambai, lies a Malay-style Char Koay Teow that provides delicious dinner and supper for the locals. It’s located in front of a furniture shop and you can easily spot the place when you see the AIA building, where the stall is just right opposite of it.

    At RM3.00 per plate, you will see a bowl of waterish wet dark brown sauce which half flooded the flat white noodle. Beansprout, cockles and small shrimps are accompanied with the little dish. The sauce is special as it’s cook with egg and tasted salty, and a little bit of sweetness.

    Ask for “udang kopek” which actually means for removing the shell of the shrimp when ordering to ease your eating experience. The little Penang’s street food by our local Malay friend is special, nice, yet I found the portion is rather small. It went in my stomach in just a short period of time.

    Nevertheless, it’s something that should be try. I’ve read that at Alma, Bukit Mertajam has another stall that sells this kind of Char Koay Teow and I would like to try it one day.

  • Sin Wah Penang Char Koay Teow, Pulau Tikus

    Sin Wah Penang Char Koay Teow, Pulau Tikus

    Penang is so famous for Char Koay Teow and it’s a must eat when you come visit in Penang or if you are a Penangite, you must like it. Haha. There’s too many nice char koay teow in Penang and one of which I know and like is in Pulau Tikus market, at the hawker stall area which sells only at night.

    The stall name is called the Sin Wah Char Koay Teow and I got to tell you that the owner got a little bit cocky. He will always tell you, ” You need to wait 30 minutes, want to wait or not?” Haha. But I don’t mind waiting because it usually served in about 15 minutes.

    There’s 3 big prawns in the koay teow, nicely fried with salted duck egg and lard. The fragrance, the taste and the texture are real good. It may not be the best, I don’t know how to say it’s the best, yet it’s nice. The best part, it’s only RM4.50 which is cheaper than the RM8 at Lorong Selamat.

  • Night Char Koay Teow at Sa Tiao Lor 三条路 Gat Lebuh Presgrave

    Night Char Koay Teow at Sa Tiao Lor 三条路 Gat Lebuh Presgrave

    IMG_3669 by nicholaschan

    Last time I introduced before the Fried Rice at Lebuh Presgrave or more known as Sa Tiao Lor 三条路 to the locals. Last night, I went there for supper and I ordered the Char Koay Teow from the same stall that does the nice fried rice.

    The char koay teow quite delicious which I likey it. Just a bit sad that there’s only 2 not very big shrimp and a little bit spicy. If the shrimp gets bigger like at Lorong Selamat, and juicy, then it will be very very good.
