Tragedy struck early in the night as Elsie was forced to pull out to fight a lurgy. I had recently heard reports that lurgies might be forthcoming as a result of eating at Pinangsia, also. However, 4 challengers faced up last night to eat Malaysian style noodles.
We ordered a rice dish which had a fried egg on it, an egg noodle with beef and veg, a peanut sauce piece of chicken,
and a sort of chilli laksa soup with chicken and egg and rice cubes in it.Also, wontons, which were disappointingly not dumplingy at all, they were big crunchy chips with a tiny piece of meat rolled in the corner. OK in their way, but not what I wanted.
And the "highlight" of the night was the specialty beef balls. Or as we will forever remember them, big balls of fat. They are big balls.The food was really cheap and fast. $8 for the meals, about $4.50 for the couple of beef balls or "wontons".
Highlights were: the noodles were very well flavoured and had nice crunchy cabbage all through it. The service is fast. The food is cheap and tasty. Also, you help yourself to tea and water from the corner, and the tea is quite nice. Good black tea.
However the food is cheap quality, not much meat really, tending to be oily.
About 3/5 overall. Until next time, challengers!
Your dumpling comment made me laugh. Malaysian wontons are different from the traditional Chinese ones. :) I had them yesterday with some BBQ pork noodles. Yummy!
ReplyDeletehaha, actually the balls were $1.50 each huh? Maybe your wontons were $4.50?
