Restoran Le Kwang

[KL, MALAYSIA] Another stall near the KL chilli pan mee is this Yong tau foo stall, that sells pieces at RM 2 each and chee chong fun at RM 1.5 each.

I got a variety, and 1 thing I noticed was that the size of the pieces were easily twice of that in Singapore and they were stuffed full of meat fillings!

My few favourites got to be the eggplant and fresh tofu. Although sinfully oily, the fried eggplant was very flavourful and I love how a crispy crust is formed around the meat fillings. On the contrast, the fresh tofu was very clean tasting, but it was so soft and silky smooth that you know is really freshly made. All pieces were in a very clean tasting soup that was really comforting.

The chee chong fun is worth a mention as well, as it was generously drenched in sweet savoury sauce and shallot oil. The pieces of chee chong fun were silky smooth and chewy as well!

Overall a very hearty meal that I wish I can have it almost every day. Can't wait to explore more hawker food in Malaysia in my next trip!

Finally had KL chilli pan mee in KL, and it was such a good one!

You will be able to find this humble traditional pan mee stall within the coffeeshop of Restoran Le Kwang. The stall owner shared with me that she cooks her own chilli sauce and it's definitely one of the most flavourful ones I've had!

The Chilli Pan Mee (RM 9.50) came with several ingredients including mushroom, minced pork and loads of fried anchovies. The noodles within were generously tossed in their homemade chilli sauce, and it wasn't really spicy but yet packed full of umami richness from the dried shrimp used. The noodles were chewy, al dente, and had the perfect texture! Though it was early morning, I wiped the bowl very clean.

This is one bowl I will crave probably almost every day 😍 will definitely make a trip to this place to eat again!

Early morning fix with no better choice other than Penang curry Mee 😋
