Despite the comparisons between hokkien mee in Singapore and Malaysia, I actually see them as two different dishes; both of which I enjoy. p.s. sorry, not talking about Penang hokkien mee.
Seating at the back, underneath a temporary tentage. More tables might be put up, provided the weather was okay. Almost all the tables were already taken 30 minutes before the stall started operations at 6pm; my expectations were obviously hyped up.
Eating at street stalls in Malaysia is a challenge for me as I had suffered two bouts of food poisoning in the past. I can only pray that my stomach has been strengthened in the past few years although it was on concern that my nose picked up the rotting stench from drain water. Note: I didn't have any stomach upset.
Fried Bee Hoon - fried till almost dry, I would say this was similar to those fried bee hoon you can get from those Chinese breakfast stalls in Singapore, albeit saltier. The game changer, however, was the sambal chilli which carried a rich punch of spiciness!
Hokkien Mee - aroma was on point, color was right and I can see how slurpy the thick strands of noodles were! Only thing - how come I don't see any crispy pork lards?! That's like the soul for any KL hokkien mee!
This was good but I would say Restoran Uncle Pou Wok at JB was tastier and packed with intense wok hei! Given that I can compare, I was actually a tad disappointed as I was hoping the KL hokkien mee, in KL (pun unintended), would be ranked higher on the taste bar.
