Kuala Lumpur 5 - Food






We went to Alor Street for the fabulous hawker food of KL, and we love hawker food! Normally, for 2 person, we can have satays, Stingray, Vegetables, Rojak, roasted chicken wings and rice. Yes for 2 person. But at Alor Street, we only ordered Fried Kway Teo, Chicken wings and Fried Oyster.

We ate in fear.?
Fear? Yes. Fear.Fear that our stomach cannot substain the food that we are having.
?why?

You see, as we are eating, we saw the way the hawkers prepared the food, the surroundings, the wok, the street, the utensils, it is extremely unclean and un-hygienic, it's one of the worst we have ever seen. The food is tasty,Indeed. But the way that it's being prepared, my gosh!! We anticipated diarrhea very soon after we consume. But thank god, nothing happened.

You see, my main objective is to try the frog porridge after Keeve( http://keevekingdom.spaces.msn.com/ ) insisted that it is really fabulous and have to try. But the main problem is..there are just too many stores that have frog porridge there! So, gave up, and eat something else all together. And i was wondering to myself..did the hawkers kill the frogs the correct way or did the frogs died of unhygenic environment there before they are being mixed into the porridge...?

Next on to Ka Soh! It's famous for the Fish Head Noodle. The restaurant is just right infront of Ritz-Carlton, so naturally, we have to try it!! And my gosh..the Rice Noodles are fantastic! The Soup is the difference. Apparently, it takes hours and hours to boil the soup base. We also ordered the "fish paste fried chicken wings" and the "Deep Fried TouFu". Amazing Stuffs... There are alot of celebrities photos(who dined there) pasted on the wall of the restaurant. The food is really fabulous and the pricing is so so so cheap! These types of restaurants are a very very rare sight in Singapore...

Do you know that we have Ka Soh in Singapore? I think it originated from here if i am not wrong.

It is such a pity you didnt manage to try the frog porridge...the one at Geylang learned his trade from the old man there. It is the best!

I tell you I can eat all the delicacies along Jalan Alor and end up so bloated that i cant talk
