KL variant - Charsiew + wantan & Brownish style certain stall got prawn wantan. All no cili saurce added. Got Tong ku kai kiok, kaisi & curry kai menu too.

Northern - Similar to KL but super thick kuah & no cili saurce.

Southern - 2 variants Both auto added the cili saurce unless you speciically ask them not to. 1st - Light colour like Sarawak & 2nd type dark colour -realy dark.

Sarawak- Light coloured

Indon - Bakmi - Normally fried marinanetd kais without charsiew and fried wantan.

Thailand - forgotten liao

Hong Kong style - Normally soup more popular- Only wth 5 big wanton and no char siew. Dry type horrible..only wanton & Qyater saurce on top sad.gif

You goto the wrong outlet liao biggrin.gif

I was having the same thinking as you last time bcos having bad food experience on my 1st trip there in early 90's. But on my 2nd trip 15yrs later, wth the internet source & tips from Travel & Living, I found cheaper and nice wanton mee there..found out later, they are famous for soup bas and not dry type biggrin.gif That is why the dry type not for human wan blush.gif

hong kong food is one of the worse one.... those who say hong kong food nice muz either no go there before or first time go and like it so much.... curry no pandan, ha gao (a kind of dim sum) only prawn and skin...no spice at all, siew mai only fresh but not enough spice, everything is so normal.... my sis stay in Hong Kong and I went there few times a year.... the only nice wan there is some of their egg tart, pork burger in macau and their bird nest egg tart.... others are plain simple...only some cannot be seen in malaysia. and their foods are very fresh.

Sarawak kolok mee for sure evolved from the same style..egg noodle + wanton..That's why part of the same species smile.gif Sumore some variant also having wanton instead of fish cake smile.gif

there is a stall in Everyday Food Court, Puchong that sells a decent sarawak kolok mee, as far as west malaysia is concerned.

Kolok mee is not same as wantan mee or bak chor mi or mi poh ok...
