Char kuew teow..doesn’t taste like char kuew teow at all, more like a unholy mix of Malay wet and Chinese char kuew teow…disappointed but at least it is fried with 猪油炸, something I haven’t ate in a very long time

Hokkien mee…when I saw cabbage on it, I already feel the disappointment… :x
In the end, fail also..idk how describe, like missing something in the soup, taste absolutely not like prawn soup.

U should check the review…it’s like those Malaysian stay in oversea countries that review 4-5 stars, all tastebud rosak or something.

I see the reviews my hope and expectation so sky high…I tot it’s finally I found a restaurant with unadulterated Malaysia cuisine. Manatau…

Yes, never fail to put me to tears. It’s always good to be home.

But too bad, this time my “kampung” is rural Japan up in Ishikawa wink.gif

This restaurant depends on mood of Chef/Cook.

You can politely ask for more wok hei & pork rind, less wet CKT. whistling.gif

I hope so…but damn, whole night I watch each plate of CKT all look the same and smell the same including the tapao I had to bring back to my waifu since she insisted I tapao even though I protested

QUOTE(Brotherjoe @ May 12 2023, 08:54 PM)
At least your CKT looks like CKT, the one i had in the US. CKT kosong, only noodles + onion + chili sauce + little bit of egg. price USD9. ordered it because Menu said "Penang Char Kuey Teow". Kena Scam 99

Wtf….Americanised CKT…

QUOTE(scorgio @ May 12 2023, 09:20 PM)
CKT punya fish sauce cannot get in Japan.

Cili boh for hokkien mee i believe also not available.
*
Hmm, any particular fish sauce? Coz fish sauce can be bought here, other countries de fish sauce (viet, Thai, etc.)

Just buy ticket balik Mahrehsia again lah.

You can open Malaysian cuisine restaurant in Japan too, you can win over Penang restaurant. Unholy green cabbage in hokkien mee not acceptable. Must be cooked pale lel.

Planning to go back this December for two weeks..can’t wait, only another half a year to go drool.gif

Well, that’s possible, sure bankrupt kot. Inb4, My waifu said my BKT taste better than MY one, can open shop already

I think any vege except kangkung on hokkien mee is basically no go, especially cabbage, sure fk up the taste of the soup.

QUOTE(Matchy @ May 12 2023, 09:38 PM)
Open by Malaysian or Japanese? I think they already butchered the recipe to cater to the local tastebud.
*
Open and run by two penang hokkien Lang, old auntie and uncle. The review manyak 5 star like the most authentic dishes you can find in JP…
