This has got to be the best char siew in Kuala Lumpur! A nondescript stall along Jalan Peel, or Peel Road in KL sells delicious glazed char siew, crispy roast pork and chicken. But what they are really good for is the char siew. At lunch time, you will see people queuing for tables. People in office wear jostle with mechanics for tables. Leave your inhibitions at the road side please.
On weekends, come early or forget about getting a table or any food. There’s another speciality too – braised chicken feet!

I don’t usually eat Nasi Kandar because its in general, not a very healthy food. A lot of oil is used in the cooking and in some less popular stalls, you never know if the food is fresh. But not the Penang Nasi Kandar at Kudu bin Abdul, I’m sure. The queue that snakes out this corner coffeeshop on Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman is legendary.
We went there one Sunday afternoon for lunch, as we’d all heard about this place and decided to give it a go. On a Sunday, traffic is more manageable and so is parking, which is available in a parking lot behind this row of shops. If you know where the famous Kin Kin Pan Mee is, you will know how to get to this coffeeshop, which fronts the main road. If you don’t, then drive down Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman towards Maju Junction until you see the queue snaking out of this corner coffee shop. You can’t miss it!

Good pork noodles aren’t easy to find. if I want pork noodles at lunch I usually head to Bangsar. I have a choice of 2 shops in the Lucky Garden area.
One is the coffee shop in the middle, same row as Secret Recipe. Another is the coffee shop at the end.
the one at the end does good pork noodle soup and us very popular but I find the soup a bit sweet. However his noodles stay hot for a long time which is nice. The one in the middle isn’t as sweet but because they sell a variety of noodles, waiting time can be very long and the shop is very hot.
I’m always on the lookout for more good pork noodle soup joints so feel free to suggest!
