I personally tried Meng Kee Char Siew and it's nice but I don't like the way they force customers to order chickens together with Char Siew. They deny any single Char Siew order. Anyone here tasted their chicken? It's salty!

For my personal preference, I prefer Ah Khai's Char Siew located at Mei Yen, Seksyen 20, PJ. He has now shifted to Restaurant Mei Yen instead of Simon's Delights (The Chicken and Char Siew stall at both Simon Delight and Mei Yen bear the same uniform so please do not make a mistake).

I love char siew too. Haven't try the one at Restaurant Overseas Imbi, coz dunno 1 plate will cost how much. There's a stall at Jalan Peel, which serve delicious char siew and Braised Pork Knuckle. It's located along the Shell Petrol Station at Jln Peel. The stall name is Jia Jia Lai. I've attached a link for easy reference: http://klchin.blogspot.com/2011/02/jalan-p...raise-pork.html
Open on weekends.

Another stall selling good char siew will be at a chinese coffee shop name Uncle Meng. At this shop, got many other stalls and one of it is selling chicken rice/char siew rice. It is located at Taman Shamelin Perkasa. If u know the cafe Pat Kin Pat San which is at the front row, then this chinese shop is located at the end of the row. U'll see this Uncle Meng shop, and the char siew only available around 11.30am onwards till sold out. Not open on Sunday.

When was the last time you visit the shop?
I tried it few weeks ago and it was Ok only compared to the same stall I tried a year ago.

How much i paid? RM7!! Only RM7!! I swear the portion of char siew is as much as Meng Kee served. In fact i've chosen half lean half fat parts which is so so so nice!

Thumbs up for Ah Khai. Good char siew with very reasonable price.

Haha, cheap and good char siew thumbup.gif
But don't always eat la, not very healthy. biggrin.gif

I was there on Saturday 11++, were you the guy in white eating there? Hahhaa I tapao back after went to digi mall.

I dunno but that day really not much ppl. Normally quite full. Maybe it's not working day.
*
Normally Ah Khai focus more on the working group of people. So it is very normal if it finish by 1pm.

Try the chicken as well, it's very good also. smile.gif

I bring bad news to all the charsiew lovers. Ah Khai at Restoran Mei Yen has folded. This is really sad.
*
Ah Khai has left that stall and give to someone to run the business already.
Rumor is that he has left the country to pursue a better career prospect in United States. sweat.gif

crispy skin, duck itself is just normal.

They will cut out the skin to eat in Peking style (wrapping), rest of it they will serve as normal roasted duck.

can opt for 1/2 or whole bird.

Compared to Seapark duck rice which is better in your opinion?
