Delicious Roast Pork Noodles & Robert Char Kuey Teow, Taman Megah

Often, simplicity is best.
The chinese condiments of soy sauce never failed to work wonders for a dish. A bit of this, and a dash of that, then a flurry of shallots over the top & there have you a tasty noodles dish.

This particular stall in Restaurant Megah Good Luck, Taman Megah gussies up their simple noodles with soft, crackly – top siew yoke (roast pork) & at your request, a ladleful of watery but aromatic curry.

The blanched noodles & bean sprouts (taugeh), drizzled with of their own mix of soy sauce & some spring onions made the base for this dish of RM4.50. The result is a simple, delicious & economic lunch item that never fails to satisfy.

Unka loves his with curry, & the mix of soy sauce & curry certainly adds a new dimension of taste to the dish.

Another reason to drop by was to check out Robert’s Char Kuey Teow after my mid – week lunch tryst at Say Huat Restaurant in Section 17, PJ.
Apparently Robert has branches all over PJ, & I couldn’t resist a comparison.

Here, his protege dishes out quite a mean plate of char kuey teow; which although is good, can’t hold a candle to Robert’s at Say Huat’s.
hmm… How should I put it? It tasted almost the same but it ain’t the same? 😉

But of course, if you are in Taman Megah, this version is almost as good as it gets.

Unable to resist economy rice, I heaped myself a plateful of my favourite items; stir fry vegetables, sting ray in sour assam curry (not very fresh), sweet & sour pork ribs (more batter than actual pork) & chinese cabbage with fermented beans.

And, yes, there IS rice underneath all that ;p

For foodies wanting to try something out of ordinary, this stall promises some twists to decades old creation of Sarawakian favourites.

Needless to say, I ordered something to try, and my RM4.50 Tomato Mee was a pure disaster; or to me at least it was.

It reeked heavily of MSG, & was way saltier than necessary. I thought that it is such a shame really, for tomato mee isn’t something commonly available in KL/PJ & it would have been a wonderful addition to the hawker fare we are accustomed to.

This restaurant is also the PJ branch for Imbi’s Soo Kee Sang Har Meen at night.
For lunch, the roast pork noodles is highly recommended. The chicken rice stall does brisk business too & would probably be my lunch on my next visit 😉

  2. Sean

  3. J

    You couldn't get enough of Robert's CKT? Haha….

    Well, nothing like the original I guess. Shall we go back there next week? I think my work schedule should be better by then. 🙂

  4. thule a.k.a leo

    Taman Megah is a forgotten place.. at least to me 🙂 never cross my mind when it comes to lunch or dinner!

  5. qwazymonkey

    siu yoke noodles looks yums. agree with leo, tmn megah seems to be like a forgotten spot. Time for a revisit

  6. Tummy Rumble

    hahaha… I'll have to try robert's CKT at section 17 since there's so many good reviews on it…

  7. Selba

    I would love to try them all!!! *drool*

  8. UnkaLeong

    I think the phrase you are looking for is, "Same same but different" Hahahah…Pretty decent Noodles available there at night as well, won't expect anything less given that the stall carries the Soo Kee name 😉

  9. J2Kfm

    Roast pork with noodles … hmmm, sounds perfect. esp with some curry to perk things up.
    And the way you described that CKT, had me itching for a visit to the original spot.

  10. CUMI & CIKI

    say huat does excellent stir fried beef kwey teow at night too.. esp after a run.. but that's our lil secret! heeh

  11. minchow

    I am severely underschooled when it comes to the best eats in PJ. There are so many of these unassuming coffee shops dishing up absolute winners (and losers, in the case of the Tomato Mee), it'll take a lifetime to navigate my way around, I reckon!

  12. Chaokar

    rest good luck is a wonder, morning till lunch they have the noodles and rice stuffs, by 3pm you have the 'tong sui' with kuehs and spring rolls, and by evening there's a good chicken/duck rice stall. I love the 'chao boey' and intestine they serve.

    Across the street, there's restoran gembira, try the sarawak kolo noodles that serve from morning till lunch.

  13. Simple Person

    Yeah Roast Pork and it looks good.. Yummy Yummy.. I stay near taman megah I dont't even know about this place…
