I decided to go for her own-made fish ball soup (RM6.00)…with tang hoon (glass noodles)…with tang hoon…instead. Yes, I was glad I did as the clear and refreshing soup was so very nice with just a very light hint of the fragrance of vinegar. I enjoyed it and sure wouldn’t mind going for it again next time…and yes, I loved that poached egg with the runny yolk!
The stewed pork…was nice but not as nice as how my missus cooks hers – hers is not so diluted, the sauce is a bit more concentrated and sticky and has a stronger garlic and whatever taste. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it very much and considering that steamed bak paos are between RM2.00 to RM3.00 each, this (around RM1.60 each with 3 mantaos) can be considered really cheap…and especially with all that meat! I shall go back for the one with the stewed pork with mui choy (preserved vegetables) soon.
In the end, I ordered the char kway teow (RM4.00)…from the nice young boy there and yes, it was very nice even though it did not have a lot of ingredients in it and it had that lovely wok hei fragrance.
