Their Hokkien Mee is a wetter version of the dish we grow up loving, offering a generous portion of savoury sauce that’s perfect for those who relish the wetter rendition. Infused with rich wok hei flavour, it captures the essence of homemade goodness, reminiscent of your grandmother’s cherished recipes. This dish boasts succulent prawns, fragrant pork lard, and tender pork meat, immersing your senses in an irresistible, tantalising aroma.
Many of the customers say that the Hokkien Mee is savoury but not too salty, just the right amount of flavour. It’s dark sauce is also very thick, a more saucier version of the classic Hokkien Mee.
The dish is available at RM11 per person, but if you’re looking to enjoy it with a group, you can opt for larger portions designed for 2 or 3 people, each with its own pricing.
What Are Their Other Hit Dishes aside from Hokkien Mee?
You wouldn’t want to visit their restaurant without trying out their other dishes. Their fried rice is another beloved dish, bursting with the “wok hei” flavour and generously filled with prawns, lap cheong (Chinese sausage), and a refreshing crunch of spring onions. Many diners highly recommend pairing it with their Steamed Lala for a comforting, warm, and slightly spicy ginger kick. Despite its simplicity, these dishes offer the most satisfying and comforting flavours.
