Pan Mee @ Hou Mei Yuan


















Pan Mee (flat flour noodle) @ Hou Mei Yuan near BJ complex has been the talk of Pan Mee lovers, acknowledge for it's home-made recipe from the mee to the sauce which complement the food perfectly.















If you are bored with dine-in restaurants and had enough of economy rice (like me), this is just the place to go! You can enjoy the alfresco setting of the cafe, peaceful ambience under the tall trees.























They serve from thin to thick, dry to soupy version of Pan Mee. All RM3.00 each for large. I tell you, the small portion is really not enough to eat, must at least order the large portion. These are some of the Pan Mee that we ordered.

Glutinous Rice Dumpling

WARNING!!! TAK HALAL!!

Have you ever eaten a Nyonya kee chang (nyonya glutinous rice dumpling) ? Nyonyas are famous for their strong taste bud and are strict towards the original taste of nyonya food. Though kee chang is not originated from the babas and nyonyas, but they are greatly influenced by the Chinese Culture too. Kk's grandmother is a Nyonya. I'm soo lucky to have the privilege to taste some of the authentic nyonya food like the otak-otak (direct translation -brains), as the dish resembles the brain, being soft and squishy) filled with fish (ikan kembung) and a type of leaf to add flavour to the paste. Ooh, i'm salivating..























Okay, come back to the dumplings. Ah-Ma @ Grandma made some dumplings for us as we told her we were coming home for a visit. Here's some of the pictures that i took before i lose control eating it up :p


















It is normally filled with pork meat, water chestnut and duck egg yolk. Ah-Ma says the dumpling is not complete without these 3 main ingredient^^ I didn't have the chance to witness how she wrapped the dumplings.























My mom usually wrap it in a triangle shaped but never in a rectangular shape. So i guess the rectangular ones are much more difficult to wrap.























I took more interest in Baba & Nyonya's Culture after i watched The Little Nyonya from YouTube! I instantly fall in love of the drama series! You can start watching the 1st Episode HERE! Photos Courtesy of Mediacorptv!
