Rojak @ SS15 Subang

 

Once in awhile on Sunday afternoon, I like to drive to Subang for the rojak & cendol.

P1030734 Rojak SS15 Subang Jaya. Used to be a mobile van stall opposite of Shell petrol station next to the mosque. Moved to the special stall built by MBSJ last Oct.
P1030732 This is the normal crowd at the stall. Everyone knows what to do when they get here.
I've even seen people queuing under rain with umbrellas.
P1030731 There are no tables & chairs provided. It's either take away or find your own comfortable spot to eat :-)

 

P1030736 P1030735

One thing amaze me the most is the systematic operation. The stall runs by 3 persons. One cut the rojak ingredients, another one slices the cucumber & the other help up on other secondary tasks. You will see no interaction among all 3. They just don't talk! But when necessary, you will notice they are quite friendly.

P1030737
This is how it looks like when served. I always ask for more cucumber. They go very well with the sauce!
P1030738
This is the "Kosong" one @ RM3. 
I consider it cheap for the portion
& varieties of ingredients.

The sauce is a little sweet & it's not thick. Won't leave a after feeling of "stuffed" even if you have the whole plate for yourself.

 

Right next to the rojak stall, you'll see another queue. The cendol stall, rojak's best friend...

P1030718
P1030720

P1030722 Not too sweet, creamy coconut milk, soft red beans.

Imagine a hot sunny Sunday afternoon and you're looking for snacks for tea break, rojak + cendol is THE choice.

 

How to get there? 
The stall is nearby KFC @ SS15 Subang. It's a row of stalls by the road side. You will see the white van parking there. 
Food: Good
Ambience: Roadside under tree 
Price: Cheap

Pepper Soup @ Section 17

Whenever I feel like having pepper soup, I will go to Kedai Kopi Lucky in Section 17.

 P1030181

P1030179
This is not just ordinary pork noodles. They have pepper soup noodles as well.

All the men who operate this stall wear white shirt.

 

P1030177

Look at the toppings (minced pork). They are marinated & fried. Very tasty. The pig stomach is clean. Soup is hot but not too hot, just nice.

The wan tan mi & chee cheong fun in this kopitiam are also famous & delicious.

 

How to get there?
Kedai Kopi Lucky is at Section 17, facing the wet market.
Food: Besides pepper soup, pig stomach & liver sausage also good.

Restoran Kah Hing

This is not an ordinary restaurant. Even though the exterior looks like a Chinese-style restaurant, don't be fooled by it. The restaurant is run by a group of Vietnamese immigrants. What's so special about this restaurant, you may ask....Well, they serve Vietnamese-style noodles, rice and the most important thing, Vietnamese Coffee....This restaurant is well-known among those staying in Taman Sri Sinar, Kepong area...

How to get there?
From Desa Park City, go straight until you've reached a T junction (with traffic lights). Turn right. Go straight. You will pass by a lot of traffic lights. After the 2nd traffic light (you will see Mobil on your right at the 2nd traffic light), keep right until you've reached a 3rd traffic light (there will be a row of shops on the left after the traffic light). Kah Hing is located at the back row of the shops (besides Pokemon Noodle House).

Tom Yam Steamboat @ Menjalara

If you stay in Kepong, this Ketam Seafood Steamboat Restaurant should not be new to you. The restaurants is very popular that if you go after 7:30pm during weekends, there will no empty tables left!

shop

I personally LOVE their tom yam soup! Looks can be deceiving. The soup might not look THAT hot & sour to you...but wait till it start boiling...HA! That is why I usually go during rainny days, so that I don't sweat that much :D It is too sour & spicy that I have to also order the clear soup for my friends.

steamboat

It's RM16.80 per head and these are what you will get. There are some ala carte for you to top up too.
Tips: My friends & I always order 1-2 pax less than the actual persons eating. Otherwise cannot finish.

set noodels

 

The chili here is one of its kind. Mix the read (less spicy) with a bit of green one (spicy hot) and stir them. I invented this way of eating...ahem! chili

 

chic wing Chic wing chili
Chic wing stall This bbq chicken wings stall outside of the restaurant is a MUST TRY! The skin is dry-to-crispy. And yet the meat is still juicy! Eat with the special made chili sauce....BEST bbq chicken wings I ever tasted. You will definitely come back for this :-)

 

One thing not good about this restaurant is, the tom yam soup not everyday same standard. Sometimes it can be not so sour & spicy but most of the time it's delicious :D So if your first visit does not seem to give you the effect like I described here, please consider to go back again ya.

How to get there?
The restaurant is at Menjalara. Turn into the road opposite the 2 petrol stations, the restaurant is on your left.
Food: Spicy & sour tom yam soup, best BBQ Chicken Wings!
