Lately I am trying to focus the old school gourmet and foods around Klang Valley. Commercial restaurants and foods though they were good but it doesnt bring the feel as good as the traditional food outlets. Last week during our King Installation day, I catch up with my old friend who were once a regular there at Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea.
Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea coffee shop is located in the Imbi Road Wet Market food section. Without fail I see a lot people order the standard like a good cup of old kopi-O. Not to miss the half boil egg served the old school way with a big stainless steel mug filled with hot water and covered with a coffee cup dish plate.
You make the judgement on when to get the egg out. Wrong timing, it turn into hard boiled egg. Too early will be watery. Experience matters here. For me 5 minutes upon served is all good. Youll get a perfect half boil egg.
Traditional Toast Bun with kaya and butter spread.
Crispy kaya and butter toast.
Fresh wrapped Sisters Popiah.
This is the original SisterS Popiah stall. The one you saw in the shopping mall is the franchise version which operated mainly by Indons.
Thick cut turnips boiled till soft.
Wrap upon order for your spring roll (popiah). The version here is slightly different from the one I had in Penang. Penang ones is famous to have more vege in it vs this one which is more crispy. Anyway, I still like it as it is.
A journey to yum char here will not complete without paying a visit to Bun Choon Bakery within the vicinity of Ah Weng Koh. Here they sell all sorts of traditional biscuits and famous for their fresh baked Egg Tarts.
The egg tarts are fresh from the oven and still piping hot. Careful not to burn your tongue when biting the golden yellowish egg tarts. I am starting to drool over them when writing this post.
