Teow Chew Restaurant @ Setapak

If you are into lum mee, here is one dish you should try here. This place is touted as the lum mee restaurant. The mee is homemade (see pic), and they use fresh saito fish balls and prawns. No doubt about this. Unfortunately today, the soup served was a bit on the "watery" side. Human error perhaps as business is always brisk here. Anyway, don't forget the vinegar. ;-)

Did you notice the fried rice? Ah ha, I bet you didn't! :) I rate it 3/5 stars. Definitely not enough "wok hau". This made the rice less aromatic and not as appetizing as it ought to be. Well, the cooks have to be quick as orders were pouring in fast during peak hours. Excuses, excuses...

Rating: 3.5/5 stars

This is one of their signature dishes: Fried dry white mee hoon. It may look plain and the least appetizing at first glance, unlike the scrumptious Hokkien mee or mee hoon doused in dark soy sauce, but I love the taste. And it turns out to be very appetizing. ok... the ingredients: fresh saito fish cake, meat balls, small onions, chee yau cha (fried pork lard), etc... this is my second time eating this dish d. =)

Crisp toothsome fried "lobak" Teow Chew style. Yummy, yummy. No, you won't find bits and pieces of pork meat to chew on here, but the soft mashed savoury fillings are what makes this dish unique. Very appetizing...

The restaurant opens around 10.30/11am and closes at around 3pm.
