Wantan Noodles...
The old time favourite that most people are never bored of.
It's almost a norm when it comes to ordering a plate of wantan mee upon entering kopitiams.
Be it during breakfast, lunch, dinner and perhaps supper?
What's more when the springy egg noodles is topped with juicy and succulent char siew (barbecued pork)? *drools*
Lucky us, we were surrounded with some goody goody fares of wantan mee like the tossed-up Char Siew Zhai, Cheras famous share at Jalan Kaskas, the celebrity char siew of Meng Kee, FSF…. there are just so many :)
Now comes along the hidden gem tucked along Old Klang Road, on the opposite road of Pearl International Hotel. At the end of the shoplots, you would spot this area with 2 stalls, selling Wantan Noodles and "Tai Chow" (Hokkien Mee, Fried Rice etc…). A white neon signboard that just exclaim the authentic flavours of Hokkien Mee and Wantan Noodles without names of the stall. However, this can be easily spotted. Just that parking could be a problem sometimes…
Well, we don't mind parking further… It's worth it :)
Not craving for "tai chow" (heard those are good too) that night...
We had their Wantan Mee - RM4.50 per plate
Springy egg noodles never disappoint us, no 'kan sui' (alkaline) taste, and of course, they blended very well with the black sauce tossed out by the chef. Tasty with a bit of sweetness from the char siew. We would recommend their “pun fei sau” (half lean, half fat). It could be more succulent and not too dry. Their char siew were not over-barbecued and the outer layer were coated with a thin layer of burnt caramel. Yum!
You could order a plate of just Char Siew alone if you wish too.

Wantan (Dumplings) wise, it was nicely wrapped, all plumped up with prawns and pork fillings. Broth to go with it were also tasty. So we bet their soup version of wantan noodles should be good too.

Ishin Japanese Dining @ Off Jalan Kelang Lama
Ishin was a great place for a family sit-down dinner when it comes to gatherings. Nestled at off Jalan Kelang Lama, it's a bungalow-like Japanese restaurant situated by the road with a modern interior and yet displaying their sophisticated traditional & spherical sushi bar. Flattered as we were, seated comfortably at the corner and began the ordering as we were impressed by their notions of serving genuine Japanese and Kaiseki style cuisines that are cooked to order. Fresh seafood and ingredients, air-flown from Japan twice a week :)

Jade Pot Steamboat 一品锅 @ Jalan Kelang Lama
This round we are bringing you towards an oriental dining experience with fresh ingredients and home-cooked soup that'll make you lick your bowl clean. Oh, we're pretty sure about this.
Jade Pot or 一品锅 had made us listed this on top of our fav hot pot eateries list, beating the other steamboat restaurants hands down. Why?
Fresh ingredients made right after ordering, suitable portion for each pax, great environment with matching cutleries and tea pots & cups that are so orientally cute.
Most importantly, they offer quality soup base. They have 4 types of different soup base (you could opt to have just one or 2 types): ABC soup, Tom Yam, Fish Head with Yam or Shark bone's soup.
Chinese Tea at RM4

Since there was only 2 of us, we decided to go for their set meal for 2 (Set A) at RM49.80.
Asked to change the normal 'Yee Mee'(Egg noodle) to the Hong Kong Yee Mee with an additional RM1.50 charge; as we find the latter more springy and smooth.
This portion might look little to you, but we we're very satiated at the end.

Pork Slices - shabu-shabu it over just for a lil' while and it'll be perfect
