Obtained the voucher via Groupon to try the Indonesia style noodle for the first time. This shall be an entirely new experience for us as we have never tasted such noodle before. We went on a Saturday for lunch. The place was rather quiet with only a few tables occupied then. This noodle place is serving 6 types of noodle, side dishes, desserts and drinks. The voucher entitled us to 2 drinks, 2 noodles and a side dish. We ordered a hot barley ($1.20), an iced lemon tea ($1.20), Mee Kang Kong ($5
The voucher entitled us to 2 drinks, 2 noodles and a side dish. We ordered a hot barley ($1.20), an iced lemon tea ($1.20), Mee Kang Kong ($5.20), Mee Ayam ($4.80) and Taukwa Pok ($2.50).
After ordering, a number was given. We were expected to pick up the foods once our number was displayed on the LED panel. We collected our drinks and took our seat. We waited for about 5 minutes for the foods to be ready. The Taukwa Pok was served later to our table.
The first impression of Mee Kang Kong somehow reminded me of Mee Rebus. It tasted quite similar as well. The gravy tasted a little sweet but the sweetness balanced up by the sourness of lime. The thick gravy goes well with the noodle.
Mee Ayam served with veggie, mushroom and chicken pieces. It tasted a little bland. I added in the hot chilli sauce to spice it up a little but it did not make much difference though the spiciness of chilli was a little intense.
We were given an option to choose in between the spicy and non-spicy version for the Taukwa pok. We opted for the non-spicy version. It tasted a little like the rojak but minus the prawn paste and peanut taste.
I would prefer the iced lemon tea to the hot barley as the hot barley tasted a little diluted with very minimum sweetness.
It was a pleasant lunch. We might come back again if happen to be in the vicinity the next time.
