I call this the vegetarian wat tan hor because the hor fun or kway teow has the sought-after wok-hei. I wanted to order the basil mee hoon stir fry but the elderly waiter recommend this bittergourd kway teow to me at MYR 14.90+ (5% service charge = MYR 15.65 nett).
Although there is a lot of black bean gravy which makes this dish very flavourful, it was not very salty so I could still enjoy eating it. I guess the flavourful black bean gravy is to please the general public who thinks that vegetarian food is not flavourful. As usual I kept half for dinner.
Cash payment only. MYR 39.70 nett for 2 pax. My friend ordered the vegetarian bak kut teh at MYR 17.90+ (MYR 18.80 nett).
We intended to eat at Medifoods but there were no vacant car park lots in front of the eatery so my friend kept on driving and then parked in front of this Organic Express eatery which is located on the same row of shops so we decided to just eat here as this is also a vegetarian organic eatery.
Monks eat here too at SS2, PJ.
Interior lightings.
The words on the mirror: "Life is precious to all beings. Do not justify killing them just to fulfill your appetite only. Try to be a vegetarian. Love is not what you say. Love is what you do. The meaning of life is to give life meaning."
Please click on the above photo for a larger image to read the words. One part of one sentence is ".. why do you choose to consume meat.."
Noodle menu. I was interested in the Basil Fried Bee Hoon.
I wonder what the "chee keot" will be represented by. Will eat the Petai Sambal one day.
Original Pesto sounds good but at MYR 19.90+.. hhmmmm..
Various dishes
in small or large portion
Bought this Tau Sah Pheah from Penang from this eatery at MYR 4.90 nett. Their fb page is penangbiscuitbean.
5 pheah inside. I break one up to show the inside. Nothing to complain about but nothing to shout about also. Fine for light snacking.
Can the chee keot mean vegetarian pig trotters, in cantonese, sounds like.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does mean that but I mean what vegetables material they use to make the vegetarian trotters - use soybean or use tofu or use mushroom or use gluten tao kan.
DeleteWow! Stickers everywhere! Prices going up like nobody's business, eh? Same here, and they say things will be cheaper with SST. Where got?
ReplyDeleteGot a few cents lower but less than 10 cents lower if you refer to my previous hailam kopitiam post.
DeleteThat is something new to me. Bitter gourd in the noodle. I like bitter gourd so I wouldn't mind trying this.
ReplyDeleteOh, there are many types of bitter gourd mee hoon soup dishes over in kl.
DeleteSometimes it's a lot of effort to come up with something to imitate meat.
ReplyDeleteYes, you are right on this point. So when I eat, I mostly go for those vegetables and not imitation meat.
