The clay pot loh shi fun from this Petaling Street stalwart is a must-include on your foodie's list! Open till the wee hours of the morning, China Town Seng Kee’s Claypot Pearl Noodles (RM13) is a soul-comforting dish worth digging into after a night out. The silky loh shi fun (rat tail noodles) is coated in dark soy, topped with a mountain of minced pork and finished with a raw egg yolk. Mix thoroughly to create a beautiful viscous sauce that perfectly coats the noodles. It's so good that Burppler Kenneth Lee had two orders of this dish – you might want to do the same.

4.5 munchies: Just thinking about the Majestic BBQ Pork Noodles makes me want to visit KL more often for it. Tossed in a savoury dark sauce, the thin egg noodles were cooked al dente and had a springy texture. What absolutely smashed it for me was the caramelisation of the roast pork – sweet, smoky, and slightly crisp skin. The signature claypot lou shu fun served at this place might have failed me, but this dish was THE saving grace. #Burpproved

Claypot lou shu fun (RM13) & iced ambra and sour plum juice (RM3.50). If you're looking for the dry version, here's one of the place to find it but frankly, not the best I've tasted. Parking is limited and open carpark can be pricey. Won't be coming back.
2.5 munchies: The dish that I was looking forward to eating the most had turned out to be the worst during my weekend trip to KL. Not only did the rat noodles look pale in colour, they were also begging for more of that starchy, savoury gravy (which needed more flavour, by the way) to be drowned in. Upon stirring the minced pork and raw egg yolk into the noodles, they dried out pretty quickly. Go for the Majestic BBQ Pork Noodle that sealed the deal for me.

A stone throw's away from actual Petaling Street lies this stalwart for local delights. Tourists often make their way, but it is the stream of regulars who flock in daily that convinces us of its prowess. The old shoplot has cleaned up well — replete with air-conditioning and cosy seats — to serve customers from lunch through to dinner. Of great reputation, the Claypot Pearl Noodles (from RM12) makes a paramount order. Coloured dark by soy sauce, the lou shi fun (rat tail noodles) is heaped with minced pork and a raw egg yolk. The charm of this claypot noodle dish lies in its slightly rough-around-the-edges allure — it's what makes eating it a special and tasty experience. Otherwise, try their Majestic BBQ Pork Noodles (RM12) — deep-fried roasted pork with noodles doused in a luscious dark sauce.
Avg price per person: RM15

Having le famous KL Claypot Pearl Noodles (RM 9/13/18).
The restaurant probably named the dish as such because Claypot Lao Shu Fen (which translates to Rat Powder) can be quite off-putting. If you don't mind the dilapidated setting of the old restaurant, you're in for good meal.
Upon mixing the yolk and heaves of minced pork, you get a beautiful viscous sauce that coats the silver needle noodles. The texture was firm yet silky which made it extremely palatable. It was so good that my party of three and two medium-sized bowls even though we had other dishes like prawn paste chicken (another recommendation!) and stir fried veggies. #Burpproved!
We simply could not resist having this claypot Lou Shu Fun (老鼠粉) served with generous amount of minced meat and raw egg.
(I can't helped but murdered the egg after taking pic ) Those lou shu fun were so smooth that they swam down my throat effortlessly. So good that we finished every single bit of it. 🙆🏻🙆🏻🙆🏻
