Stir fried mee suah - MYR7.50 for a regular portion at Soon Lei. After eating this, I realise that I don't like wok hei (the taste of a hot wok) in my food because this dish is full of wok hei and I prefer it to be lighter in taste.
My missus and my girl like it. I'm fine without...as long as there are enough ingredients to make the dish tasty. Wow!!! RM7.50 is a bit on the high side, can't really see what is in the dish other than the taugeh and the egg.
There are chinese waxed sausages (lap cheong) cut up into strips too which I don't quite like because I don't like to eat lap cheong. This is a air conditioned place so I guess that's why the price is on the higher side.
I always thought that in order to get the wok hei the wok has to be super hot for frying which I find it to be unhealthy because the dish would be overheated. I like those taugeh.
It is true that the wok has to be super hot to get wok hei so it is unhealthy for the cook to be inhaling all the hot oil fumes. But the food is quickly stir fried in the hot, hot wok so the food is not overheated.
I am also another fan who would prefer wok hei mee suah.It must include many prawns and a bowl of spicy hot sambal belacan! I am drooling as I typed this. Wakakakaka
wok hei is nice but not in big portion of noodles. I once had Char Kuey Teow full of wok hei and I feel like eating some 'burnt noodle' halfway thru...

DeleteI wouldn't mind as long as it is not too dry.
ReplyDeleteIt is not too dry because it is on the oily side.
DeleteI may take this for dinner as long as it is not too oily. But I think it is a bit expensive compared to Ipoh standard. Is it the normal price for KL?
ReplyDeleteThis is an air conditioned eatery so the price is higher than a coffee shop.

ReplyDeleteNo prawns and no sambal for this dish as it is not char kway teow, hahaha.
DeleteWok hei means good!! But if overburnt then of course, no good already..
ReplyDeleteNo, it is not overburnt. Just that I don't like wok hei.
