Hakka Noodles @ Jalan Kulim, Bukit Mertajam
I am a sucker for Hakka Noodles and I would always order it if it’s available. One day I saw this Hakka food stall next to Kang’s Beef Noodle in Bukit Mertajam. And as far as I know, it is the very first in BM to sell Hakka noodle. So, I gave it a try with fairly high hopes it could rival the quality in KL.
The minced meat was OK but the noodles was a disappointment, pretty bland tasting. Sad to say it still has a long way to go before being able to match the Hakka noodles in KL. Even those prepared by foreigners taste better. The only consolation is the cheap price @ RM2.50 per bowl.
Oops, crappy photo due to backlight lol. Besides Hakka noodle, Yong Tau Fu and Lui Cha are also available. Although I am Hakka, I am not a big fan of Lui Cha at all lol. If you haven’t had Hakka noodle before but curious about the taste, you can probably give it a try.

about 2 years ago - 5 comments
Old Green House restaurant (老青屋) is a popular place among Penangites to have Hokkien Mee (or Prawn Noodle in other Malaysian states) either as dinner or supper. Although the noodle is also available in the morning at another ‘day shift’ stall, most of the working people only have the opportunity to savor it after working
Phor Thor (Hungry Ghost Festival) @ Jalan Pasar, Bukit Mertajam

I bet you already know that it’s the Hungry Ghost Festival currently. During the Ghost Month the realms of Heaven and Hell are open, which releases ghosts, spirits including those of the deceased ancestors to roam the living world. So, the Chinese are often advised to stay at home and prevent from going out late

Shunka Japanese Restaurant @ Maju Utama Business Centre, Bukit Mertajam

There aren’t many Japanese restaurants in BM so I am glad that Shunka Japanese Restaurant at Maju Utama Business Centre is a good one. This business centre is also home to a number restaurants and cafes like Bloggers Cafe, Station 1 and Old Town. Currently it is the most popular venue to hang out in

Sri Bistari Famous Nasi Ayam Penyet @ Changi Village

To be honest, I haven’t tried a lot of Indonesian food but I can vouch my love for Ayam Penyet, this wonderful traditional dish that originates from Subaraya. Smashed fried chicken served with rice and spicy hot sambal, so simple yet so additively delicious. Not too far away from Tampines at Changi Village is Sri

A recent visit to Q Wok Nyonya Curry House at Taman Bayu Mutiara near Autocity had us delighted over the good and affordable home cooked traditional Nyona dishes. Most of the dishes have three sizes from small to medium to large and the pricing is justified for the clean environment as well as an efficient

Never try this Hakka mee before although I’m authentic BM kia. One recommendation here, I was one of the regular customer of pan mee in Seri Kembangan or Serdang. It only opens during night time ~7pm-10pm.
How to get there?
From Equestrian club going to South city plaza using the old road, you will pass by a Dunlop car tyre shop beside the main road, the stall is just there.
Sorry that I don’t remember exactly the street name.
I posted about it not too long ago: http://www.vkeong.com/2008/07/30/pan-mee-serdang-raya/

Hmm I’m quite familiar with BM but still cannot recall seeing such stalls. Where exactly along Jln Kulim? Near St Anne’s church?
vk: Yes you’re right. Jalan Kulim is the road you use to reach St Anne’s Church from the town. If you can find Yin Onn (the chinese herb/medicine shop) you will see this. It’s only opposite

have u tried the on in sungai nibong? quite famous. normally lunch time is full of people. from one shop, now they expand into 2 shops. good business lo!!!
vk: I used to dine in Sungai Nibong quite frequently.. but I have never noticed Hakke Noodle before lol
about 4 years ago
I believe the Hakka usually eat this noodles with a bowl of “Yong Tau Fu” type of soup or a plate of fried Yong Taufu or both, depending on what you order.
I think it is rare if I you only eat that bowl of noodles (with minced pork) by itself. No?
As far as I know this particular stall sells quite nice
tasting Yong Taufu cos their fish meat filling is very soft and fresh.
P/S: The Sg Nibong one is just next to Yaki Teppan if they still in Biz
