Batu Niah Best Fried Mee

I was back at home for Gawai end of last month and yeah, I didn't managed to put up any post on it but chill, I left my modem in Bintulu, that's why.

There's this one particular shop at the corner of the row of coffee shops by the riverside of Batu Niah which we often if I must say, a must place to eat for each and every one of us. Every time after Sunday Mass we would be gathering at that particular shop and spend time chit chatting and just mingle around.



This particular shop by far, I think got the best fried noodles I've ever tasted! I think the whole family agrees with me. They've been around for as long as I can remember. we practically watched their children grew up!

It is a very small shop with limited sitting I must say but mind you, the seats are never empty.



Yup, the shop itself was so full of US! From the picture you can see my cousin, Renee and my grandparents. Yes, they're still alive and kicking!

After mass on 31st of May, we went there. Some of the family members was supposed to arrived a day before but due to some - I don't know, maybe they had early Gawai somewhere along the way, they only managed to get going from their respective places on the eve of Gawai itself.

This time, we ordered RM 15 worth of fried noodles.



Seriously, that RM 15 plate was not enough, we add another RM 10!

That's how good it is!

It's very different from the fried mee that we have in KL. It's less dark, less oily and also really dry. I had bad experiences in the peninsular when it comes to having fried mee. There was this one time I asked for a "mee goreng kering" and I thought that the fella would understand what I want and instead, he gave me a plate of fried mee but with sauce - I told him, I want a dry one and you know what, he came back to me, with the same plate of noodle but with the sauce taken out. WTF!

The difference between here and there would be first thing first, the bean sprout. Here we cut the roots but the ones on the other side, the fried it with the roots and not to mention they always got this burnt smell out of it. It's really a turn off ...
