| 同友人閑談之際, 提到我哋以前幫襯開嘅一檔板麵, 不過小學畢業之後就冇再食喇.. 其實係以為隔咗咁多年, 有可能結業或搬遷.. 週末心血來潮突然想食, 於是戰戰兢兢故地重游, 見到竟然仲喺度賣喎, 真係喜出望外!! 嚟碗大嘅, 果然同25年前一樣咁好味, 好懷念呀~~ |
| was chatting with a friend and mentioned about a ban mien stall we used to go, but have not been there since we graduated from primary school.. we thought after so many years, it may have ended business or moved to another place.. felt like having it during the weekend, i travelled to this old place with uncertainty, and was so thrilled they are still there!! ordered a large one to savor, and it tastes just as yummy as it was 25 years ago, oh sweet memories~~ |

Tekkaus here yet? xD
ReplyDeletehaha, Tekkaus angry already so he doesn't want to come anymore~~ :D
DeleteLooks like I'm still first! ;)
ReplyDeleteyou keep refreshing the page starting 8:28am and see when there'll be new post?? haha..
DeleteI'm beginning to suspect First Lady Lina sets her browser's homepage to SK0617. Open Internet browser, tadah straight away greet SK.
DeleteBecause, today my blogroll didn't show the latest post of SK. So, I thought I check upon this blog first before I lodge a 'missing blogger' report to blogstation.
DeleteSee-see, got new post and Lina is way much early leaving her footprint here.
hahaha, Queen Yvonne so funny, even myself didn't set my blog as the homepage, hahaha!! hmmm, i think the blogroll may not be updated instantly lah, there is a delay one.. so do come and keep refreshing the page for new post, hehe~~
DeleteI refresh and refresh until new post come out lor.
DeleteMuahaha!!!!!
wah, really very dedicated First Lady!! must press until your finger also exhausted already~~ :D
DeleteMorning!
ReplyDeleteMorning!
Morning!
Happy Thursday morning everyone! :)
One more day to work and it's the weekend. :)
yeah, it's Thursday already, so fast!! so when it comes to weekend, First Lady will go "sekolah petang" already~~
DeleteGood morning, Lina!
DeleteGood morning, SK!!
Ahahaha.... you like old uncle lah.
ReplyDeleteReminiscing about food you used to eat like ages ago...
So the proprietor still the same or not? Or is it now Bangla guy who makes the dish? ;p
eih, indeed i am an old uncle lah, haha!! see, this is 25 years ago!! but hey, they are still the same people doing that, not a single bangla, that's something good to see right?? :)
DeleteGood for you lah, can taste the same taste you had 25years ago.
DeleteI had this one place that I really like their Pan mee, but now don't like to go there already because Bangla made the dish. The taste simply not right lah!
aiyoh, where is that pan mee?? yalor, if changed to foreign workers manning the stall, sure not as nice already lah.. but this one is good, the lady boss still the one cooking.. that's maybe why they are still surviving for more than 25 years..
DeleteGood morning First Lady!
ReplyDeleteEarliest as usual...!
anay you woke up so late, thambee thought anay woke up to work at 7am everyday?? :D
DeleteThe photo makes me hungry! Not yet makan breakfast. Should eat that? I have never tried this Ban Mien.. Nice?
ReplyDeleteanay, it's very nice!! but it's a little different from the normal ban mien we have.. click on the "note" button to see how different..
DeleteI like my mother's homemade ban mien the most. Mentioned 'homemade' mah!
ReplyDeleteAm trying to pick up her skill on making ban mien (since now my cooking / baking mojo still around).
Deleteyeah, i think homemade one are nice!! the soup also easy to cook, just ikan bilis or maybe with bonus chicken.. then stir fry some meat and mushrooms, the noodles can buy from outside lah, save the hassle..
Deleteadoi! SK cook them for us! I hungry lah! ;p
Deletehahaha, i dunno how to cook.. my dad cooks one, i just talk talk here only haha!! :D
DeleteThe tricky part of making homemade ban mien is the noodle, the dough. We don't get outside noodle but to knead the dough ourselves, er, I mean my mother, hihi
Deletehaha, my dad can make the dough himself if he got the time, else he will just buy from outside.. actually homemade one already nice lah, sure we got "gar liu" one mah, haha..
DeleteThere's one old kopitiam in my town here serves the best ban mien which of course, is having the same-same ordinary liew - fried anchovies, minced meat with mushroom and green (dunno the vege's name :p)
ReplyDeleteSo, whenever I crave for ban mien and my mother mogok to cook, I'll eat there.
actually i don't like minced meat one lah, it somehow in the end makes the clear soup so murky.. i like meat slice like this one lor..
DeleteI agree, so most of the time I order dry one :p
DeleteThe kopitiam here is famous for its pumpkin and spinach flavor noodle. Kinda special because others serve plain noodle only.
sorry lah, but uncle actually not interested at all on those creation lor, what pumpkin what spinach what charcoal.. i still prefer the original one, just plain flour and eggs only..
DeleteYou ate at that stall 25 years ago and it's still standing strong today. Man, that uncle/aunty must be in his 60s or 70s by now? Or his descendants took over?
ReplyDeleteno woh, it's still that auntie manning the stall.. she's still the one cooking but she doesn't look aged too much, i have no idea how old she is lah, haha.. but another worker who makes the noodles become an old grandma already lor, yet still very energetic ler..
DeleteHahaha, this is what the management call, retain their valuable asset of the company. If the management decided to cut cost and hire bangla to manning the stall, habis cerita!!
Deleteyalah, this is what they call a differentiation strategy mah, haha!! must be different so that customers will come, or else if all bangla cooking the noodles, everywhere also the same right?? :)
DeleteI bet the price they charged is different from 25 years ago, hihihi!
ReplyDeleteof course is different lah, how can maintain the same price for 25 years?? i remember that time was like RM2.50, now it's RM4.00 only..
DeleteRM4 cheap lah. Right? :)
Deleteyalor, in KL area RM4 is cheap lah, large one also only RM4.50..
DeleteHey, it's still cheap leh!
DeleteFrom RM2.50 to RM4, not a huge jump. And they still maintain the quality.
I too enjoy the old old stalls with old old faces handling the food. With the familiar faces, the food won't go wrong, hehehe.
yalor, now come to think about it RM4 is really cheap leh.. hmmm, i was so thrilled i see all the same faces (albeit getting older) manning the stall.. it was really a happy weekend for me.. :)
DeleteBan Mien is my favourite too. I love eating it with sambal chilli.
ReplyDeletehehehe, not my favorite but then sometimes i will be craving for it lor.. and i prefer soup one than dry one..
DeleteMay be one day I must make my own ban mien to give you a shock.
ReplyDeletehahahaha!! actually won't shock me lah, cos we have been cooking ban mien at home quite often and actually it's not very difficult to cook woh~~ :p
DeleteI remember last time my friend bringing me to eat the ban mien in KL. It was opposite hotel Fortuna. Don't know that hotel still exist or not. Don't know that stall still exist or not.
ReplyDeletei think still there lah the hotel, but i have no idea there's a nice ban mien stall over there woh.. ooopss, you didn't mention that one whether nice or not also hor?? :D
DeleteYou didn't mention about the mien they served. Is it the one got processed by the machine or they 'tear' the mien one? I prefer the latter :)
ReplyDeleteSomehow 'tear' ones feel very homely type.... hehehe, yalah, my mother doesn't have the machine so she uses 'tearing' method on the dough.
oh, they don't use machine at all, all are the "tear" type and you won't have to choose by standard all the same.. in fact they still very traditional, use hand and roll to roll the dough, unlike now all use machine already..
DeleteIt's very hard to find the tear type nowadays. Most hawkers seek for machine made noodle to save time and effort. That traditional stall still insists using the old method, kudos to them!
DeleteNo wonder SK returns after 25 years, hihihi....
errr, i thot tear one are easier cos they just tear and throw into the soup.. i think you have to request for tear one or else they give you the default thick noodles.. normally if not the tear one, i requested for the thin one lor.. haha!! 25 years, you were not born yet, hehehehe~~ :p
DeleteI guess all the hawkers here are lazy, they opt for machine made. Ask for tear one, they say not available, cis.
Delete25 years ago, I sudah exist in the world la. Aunty already~
Some stalls are very stingy with the liew. 2-3 tiny slices of mushroom only and I must stress here that the liew is a strong factor that determine a good / bad ban mien. Agree?
ReplyDeleteoh, instead this one very generous, a lot of mushrooms and browned shallots, maybe the meat not as much lah, but still very nice..
Deletegood morning!
ReplyDeleteerrr, good afternoon, haha!!
Deleteif only we could turn back time..those days the food were much cheaper and delicious too.
ReplyDeleteerrr, can never expect things to be the same price as it was lah.. but then taste could still maintain though i believe..
DeleteI love this noodles too..yummy. How much is it?
ReplyDeleteit's RM4.00 for small and RM4.50 for large one.. consider cheap in KL already..
DeleteThe bowl of noodles sure looks delicious! I certainly hope decades down the road, we'll still be able to eat authentic Chinese dishes.
ReplyDeleteyes, it's indeed very nice, i can still taste the same taste like it was 25 years ago.. :)
DeleteSaw this on Facebook! LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteyeah, and you were the first one who suspected my ability to eat that 25 years ago!! :D
DeleteGood that it still tastes the same...
ReplyDeleteyeah, and we rarely can find anything that can still tastes the same over such a long time right?? :)
DeleteNothing stays the same these days, it seems... Things that I had when young no longer taste as great today - Milo, for one...and all the rest!
ReplyDeletevery true, almost everything taste less yummy than they were before.. but is it the taste of the food themselves, of it's that our own tastes had changed??
Delete25 years!!! where is it?? Bring me go wei lol
ReplyDeletenight time got buka or not ? XD
Lorong Haji Taib 5 at Chow Kit (belakang), but they open until late afternoon only.. why always night time ah?? you so much into darkness meh?? :D
Deletedey I busy on day time ok LOL
Deleteweekend got ar? lol Maybe it is my father punya generation hang out place :X
weekend got, my post also said i went there during weekend mah, they close on every Tuesday only.. hahaha, yalor, i am your uncle generation mah adik, so i hang out there :D
Deletewell, most of the 10years or 15 years ago punya food all I sudah lupa di :( sad right?
ReplyDeletebecause those food not nice at all so you will never remember lor.. if really nice one sure you will remember them for the rest of your life one..
Deletemacam watch movie, one bite then can remember forever LOL
Deleteyalah, somemore once bite then must close the eyes and then imagine myself flying in the sky lor~~ :D
DeleteAll this talk about food sure makes my tummy growl in hunger!
ReplyDeletehehehe, but too bad lah, this one you cannot eat, it's not halal.. :p
DeleteLooks yummy!
ReplyDeleteThere's a special chee cheong fun near my place too that has special soup like this!
oh really?? that sounds interesting, where is the place??
DeleteWah.. 25 years and still kicking. Lol
ReplyDeletehahaha, yalor.. they were already there before you come to this world!! :D
Delete睇落幾好食喔，板面其中一樣我中意食嘅！
ReplyDelete係呀, 佢真係同平時啲板麵有唔同架, 我係覺得好好食囉, 其他人就可能接受唔到冇炸江魚仔..
Delete25 years ago! that is a really really long time !
ReplyDeleteit is more than 25 years actually, and i think you were not born at that time they are selling the ban mien too~~ :D
Deletewahaha.. well. if its 25 years then i guess i'm born already lo.. but if more than 31 .. then no.. hehe
ReplyDeletebtw bro, do you want to go for tiger asian music festival? I have extra tickets. can give you one pair if you want.
Wow...after so many years...2 and a half decades...the stall is still there? :p
ReplyDeleteAnd it still taste the same? :p You must have got good taste buds to still recognize the similarity aye.
ReplyDeleteAww...must be very nostalgic when you and your friends are eating there right?
ReplyDeleteWalking down memory lane with the ban mien taste in your mouth... nice :D
ReplyDelete久仰天涯客板面嘅大名，但係一直都冇机会帮衬！
ReplyDelete知道喺秋杰路左近，但係唔知喺边处？？
ReplyDelete不如搵日约你带路搵食？？呵呵呵~~~靠晒你囉！
ReplyDelete我钟意试唔同口味嘅板面，呢档天涯客板面对我嚟讲应该OK！
ReplyDelete炸葱同香菇都係我嘅favourite，最重要汤底够清甜，而板面又够弹性同够滑！！
ReplyDelete能够绑住你嘅胃长达25年，相信呢档板面真係有佢过人之处同真功夫！！
ReplyDelete几时你再去帮衬，记得到时预埋我吖！ :-)
ReplyDelete不如你搞个板面美食交流会，地点就喺天涯客囉！！你话好唔好吖？？呵呵呵~~~
ReplyDelete在我小学和中学的时候，有一档常去吃的云吞面。
ReplyDelete后来离开了学校就没去了，有一次提起，别人不以为然，没觉得好吃啊~
我就和老友说：我们吃的是回忆
