This cosy little restaurant is located at the basement, opposite Ah Cheng Laksa.
I think they opened very recently, either this week or last week.
The noodles are either dry style or soup and you can choose ramen or kueh teow.
Or you could have rice if that is more your thing.
There are also side dishes in the form of salads, dumplings or beef meatballs and of course, beverages.
Ordering is easy, via order chits but my order was taken by a guy at the entrance who guided me on the menu. He advised me that the soup is Chinese style and not Malaysian style. I take that to mean Taiwanese style? Forgot to clarify.
It didn’t take long for my order to be served.
The soup is thick and robust tasting, I could detect aromatic spices.
There were tender chunks of beef, a tendon or two, one or two pieces of tripe, one beef ball and carrots. I took just one bite of the beef ball and left the rest. As a general rule, I avoid any kind of processed meatballs as they contain mainly flour/starch.
The chili dip was quite nice but SUPER HOT as in pedas giler. Some people who love the excitement of getting their tongue burnt will love this dip.
The Cold Tripe salad was quite nice. It had a good balance of sweet, sour and salty. The aroma of shredded cucumber and chopped coriander added freshness to this dish. There is a topping of crispy chili and I found it not too hot, just nice.
I won’t mind coming back as this is a good option for my all meat diet (though I will eat some vegetables but not carbs).
It was not a cheap lunch for sure. Anything involving beef, especially at a shopping mall, is pricey.
