Pu Tien at Gardens

I have eaten at Pu Tien Restaurant, One Utama so now that Pu Tien is in Gardens Mall, I went there for lunch with 4 of my friends who are also my co workers. All the dishes below that we ordered are for sharing.

From wiki: Putian (Chinese: 莆田) is a city in Fujian, China. So this restaurant serves Putian food.


Heng Hwa (Putien people are known as Heng Hwa) Mee Hoon (small) - MYR19.90++ (10% service charge and 6% GST) which is MYR23.20 nett. The mee hoon is very, very fine (thin).

Lor Mee (small portion) at MYR19.90++ (MYR23.20 nett).

Mee Suah (small portion) at MYR19.90++ (MYR23.20 nett).

Bian Rou (wanton) Soup - MYR8.90++ (MYR10.40 nett). According to the information stated on the menu, the skin wrap is made from pork meat after being pounded and kneaded for a long time. I wouldn't have known if I did not read this fact.

Pork meat slices with buns (1 bun is MYR6.90++ and minimum order is 2 buns - MYR13.80++ which is MYR16.10 nett). We did not order this but it was served to us so we told them that we did not order this and they took it away only to return with it and informed us that their captain is giving this dish to us foc. 

Salt and Pepper Pig's Trotters  (MYR13.90++ per piece and minimum order must be 2 pieces - MYR27.80++ which is MYR32.40 nett). Normally I don't eat this dish but I gave it a try this time and found it to be quite nice - practically no meat at all, only skins and gelatinous tendons, very soft chewy. I could not even feel and taste the fatty bits so it was tasty. I would recommend this dish to those who likes to eat pig's trotters and those who are sitting on the fence.

As we have a promotional opening day voucher expiring on 20 Aug 2017 we used it to redeem this dish so it is foc as well.

Total price for 5 pax is only MYR80 nett which means on average MYR16 nett per pax due to the 2 dishes being foc.

  3. The food at Pu Tien are quite pricey but they are all very tasty and delicious with unique menu. The crowd still queue up daily at 1-U. It has been a long time I have not visited this place and didn't know they have mee suah. That's my favourite!
