IS THIS THE BEST WANTAN MEE IN PJ? Chan SinKee Noodle @ Kota Damansara

-
 Hey! I am finally back with another food review. Had not tried anything that was interesting enough for me to do a full blog on it. Anyway, my mum and I were searching for places to eat and we specifically wanted noodles. The initial plan was to have Chilli Pan Mee because who would say no to that right?! As we were walking there, this shop next door called Chan SinKee Noodle which was pretty crowded at that moment, caught our attention so we decided to give it a try. Well, I think it's safe to say that this is now my favourite noodle place.
No fancy decorations, just a humble set up. Not sure about you but I personally think that places that are less fancy always serves the best food. Well, most of the time. 

There are 3 sizes of noodles to choose from. We didn't know how small is the small how big is the big portion so we just went for the smallest one which we were really glad we did because the portion is quite big for a small. They have a variety of wan tan noodles and mee pok. I really wanted to try the latter but we thought we would try them another time.
We ordered the Tomato Chilli Red Wantan Mee [RM7.90] which did get a few eyebrow raises from me. Tomato and chilli with wanton noodles?? Really? This was my least favourite out of all 3 mainly because I didn't liked the taste of it which actually reminded me of the olive oil that you dip your bread in at Italian restaurants. It tasted exactly like that! The spiciness is barely there too. But it really depends on personal preference because my mum liked it.
Black Chilli Wantan Mee [S:RM7.90] This one was just alright. Nothing much to shout about. Also, their small portion is just nice for one person. 
This is actually not on the menu but they were on the walls. It's their new dish, Sambal Prawn Wantan Mee. I started out with this which I then realised that it wasn't a good idea because it was really spicy but bearable and it numbed my tongue throughout the whole meal. The chilli paste is not the thick kind and the noodles were just nicely coated once you mix it up. There's also bits of shrimps to chew.
What I really like about their wan tan mee is the noodles itself. It is by far my favourite texture and thickness of wan tan noodles. It is cooked al dente, chewy and addictive. You know how some noodles will just make you want more? This is definitely one of them! The char siews are those typical thinly sliced and dry ones that you'll normally get. If they pay attention to the char siews too, I'm sure this would be the ultimate bowl of wan tan mee.
Every bowl of wan tan mee comes with a bowl of soup with 3 wan tans and 2 fish balls. Let me tell you, it was the best fish ball and wan tan that I've had. The texture of the fish balls were so unexpectedly chewy and bouncy. The wan tan skins are really smooth and are just at the right thickness. Even my mum, which is very particular with wan tans said that it was really good. 

OVERALL VERDICT:

Food: 8/10 (Would prefer to have it with the normal sauce but I'm giving extra points for the noodles, wantans and fish balls)

Price: 8/10 Very affordable with the portion given

Would I Return?: Heck yes!

Is Eating Suki-Ya As A Vegetarian Worth It?

EAT WHAT LEH?  Last month, my friend and I went to Suki-ya for lunch. As you know, the best part about Shabu-Shabu is the free flow of meats. We planned this in January, before I went on my meat-less diet. I didn't want to cancel the lunch as it was my treat for my friend's birthday and we had been waiting for it for months. As the days got nearer to our lunch date, I thought to myself "What exactly am I going to eat? Will it still be worth the money if I don't eat the meats?". We went there on a Friday afternoon and it was really crowded and if not mistaken, there weren't any empty tables. I did called a week before to make reservations but they said that they only allow walk-ins now.      If you're unfamiliar with Suki-Ya, it is a Japanese restaurant. They have ala carte dishes but people mainly go for their all you can eat buffet. There's the buffet bar that has a good selection of items for your hot pots, a variety of sushi, dippin

EAT WHAT LEH?   I've recently started becoming a vegetarian (literally 6 days ago) and no, it's not because of religious reasons. I'm not sure how long will I be vegetarian for but I would definitely try to stick to it as long as I can. Becoming a vegetarian is not a problem for me because I personally don't really fancy meats. The only problem is when it comes to eating outside. I had been on the internet so much recently, searching for vegetarian restaurants near me and I managed to come across few blogposts that really did helped a lot! This is also one of the reason why I am starting a blog. To help people to search for places to eat! So if you found this post, Ola! Allyna to the rescue! smirks    I went for a casting at The Vertical (opposite Bangsar South) and decided to go for a quick lunch as there were around 10 people before me. There were many restaurants at Bangsar South but now that I'm a vegetarian, I thought why not give Beyond Veggie a try
