This 1 night trip to Melaka, I had like 3 bowls of hee kiaw mee! I am starting to think that I am becoming a Hee Kiaw Mee addict. Miharu and family got the puzzled look on their face, why this fatty like hee kiaw mee so much, to them, its just very ordinary food, hehe…

Firstly, for those not familar, hee kiaw mee is actually noodles, can be ordered soup or dry with fish cake, fish balls and char siew. Most of the time, there’s also additional toppings like meatballs, stuffed tofu, etc. you can add on. The noodles varies from stalls, it can be the normal yellow noodles, meehoon, koay teow and something wantan mee type. The fish cake is different, not the usual fried type but just steamed fish cake that comes in white and orange colour. Fish ball and char siew are standard. Oh… there’s also taugeh being served together.

I preferred the soup based one but only at this one stall that operates at night at Jalan Tun Sri Lanang. The soup is slightly salted but very tasted and I like the fact there are so many types of topping you can add, hehe… greedy me as usual :P

The dry one is quite nice too, my favourite is with koay teow and yellow noodles and oohhh… today I discovered that you have to ask for chili to be added to the dry one if you want so, it feels like something is missing with the chili sauce in the dry noodles :) .

Well, this time I had my first bowl during dinner at Newton food court but sorry to say this but it was really not up to my expectation. I would actually rate it as just normal ching tong soup noodles. So, Miharu then convinced everyone that I should go for another bowl and we end up da bao-ing at Jalan Tun Sri Lanang… hehe… well, no regrets and I love it… see the photo, how I walloped clean clean

Then today, not sure what to eat, I end up eating hee kiaw mee again for lunch at Bukit Beruang… haha… so in conclusion, I think internally, I am slowly becoming a hee kiaw mee addict ;) .

Eat first, think later… hmm.. maybe the next addiction will be char siew fan… thinking about it.. time to sleep, sweet dreams :D

I got this pack of fantastic chicken floss tou sar kok from Miharu and I thought, this is great stuff! Everyone I share it with love it! The brand JY is actually Jing Yuan Biscuits and Bakery located at Jalan Ong Kim Wee in Melaka.

The biscuits is cripsy and since are soft tou sar mixed with chicken floss. It may sound weird at first but one bite and you can’t stop! The combination is great! Next trip  to Melaka, I gonna buy tonnes of these back!

I remember when I was a young kid when there are no such thing as hypermarket and only a handful of supermarket around, the main source of grocery as the local neighbour hood kedai runcit… one of the favourite things to buy at the kedai runcit are their chocolate wafer… which comes in big tin that you need to buy by the amount required.

Now, we get our biscuits from hypermarket, supermarket and even the pasar malam stalls starts to prepack biscuits and sell nowadays. However, here in Sg Way in SS9A PJ… just on the main street next to 7-11 lies Bee Kee… an old time shop that have now been replaced by 7-11. It still operates from the unit upstairs but I was told its not selling to the public, wholesale maybe but I am not sure.

However, on the staircase, Bee Kee is still selling biscuits to the local community by the tins. Simply pick the biscuits of your choice (pricing are marked on the tins) and amount you want and they will weight to your order. But of course, time have changed, even most of the biscuits in tins you buy there are the common supermarket brand like Julie, Khong Guan and etc.

I bought a packet of spiral ear biscuits at RM2 here, used to love this biscuits when I was a kid and it was really good to have it again bringing back my childhood memories ;) .

So if you are in the area, do checkout the staircase biscuits stall, the GPS waypoint is N3 05.136 E101 37.232.
