Kolo mee

This kolo mee only costs MYR5.5 at a nearby local coffee shop. This meal can last me for quite sometime because there is a lot of noodle.

Big Family

Finally we went to eat the fresh fish slice noodle at Sungai Buloh after reading about it so many times on Claire's blog. After driving for a long time we reached the place at 11.30 am in time for lunch. Before going, I tried to find out on which day the stall is closed but this information is not available online so we decide to try our luck and just go there.

Happy to arrive at this corner coffee shop.

I couldn't believe my eyes although I did know that there is a possibility that the stall is not opened for business when we reached there.

Ok, take another look from behind just to make sure. Correct, not opened for business but all the other stalls are opened for business so we can just eat other food.

Ordered this bowl of Estuary Grouper fish (Loong Dan) balls mee hoon mixed with hor fun noodles - MYR6 - from another stall that only sells fish balls and fish cakes but no fish slices. The fish balls are very "bouncy" and "springy".

We ordered another bowl of just the Estuary Grouper Fish Balls and Fish cakes without any noodles to share - MYR6 also.

2 rolls of Chee Cheong Fun (ccf) with jicama in it and 1 beancurd sheet, 1 pork skin, 1 fried fish ball with curry - MYR5.60 and because we have leftover curry we bought another 1 sheet of plain flat ccf and 1 roll of plain ccf - MYR1.60 to eat with the extra curry. The ccf tastes good.

Kolo Mee - MYR5 - I like this kolo mee due to the soft noodle and I can tell that lard is used instead of normal cooking oil.

Mix pork noodles - MYR5.5 - decent enough and we ordered hot coffee (MYR1.30) and iced cham (coffee mix with tea) - MYR2.

On our way back, to make full use of this trip, we stopped by the Waterfront at Desa Park City to look around since I have always wanted to visit this place but kept putting it off due to it being located very far from where I live.

Sarawak Kolo Mee

I spotted this stall and as I have not eaten Sarawak Kolo Mee before but read about it on blogs I thought I must  try this. See there is even a "Must Try" phrase on the name board of this stall.

So I ordered a small portion for MYR5.5 but as I couldn't eat that much noodle, I kept half of the noodle for lunch. Does it taste like authentic Kolo mee from Kuching? I honestly do not know because I have not eaten any before. The sauce taste a bit like Mamee Monster Noodle Snack's seasoning, not salty at all. The noodle does not have any alkaline nor egg taste. Just very firm and a bit on the hard side. I would say that it is tasty with no MSG as I do not feel thirsty at all after eating this.

Is this how kolo mee is supposed to look like? Is Kolo mee referring to the type of noodle used or referring to the way the noodle is cooked and served?

The stall is located in this coffee shop.
