Over the past few days, there has been backlash from the Malaysian public over the lackluster quality and non-competitive price tag of some buka puasa food sold at Ramadan bazaars here in Malaysia. From appallingly stomach-churning discoveries such as a dirty cloth found hidden in a "Murtabak" dish to rock-hard "Kuih Kerias" snacks that could defy the laws of quantum physics even when thrown like a boomerang across the wall, the gastronomic nightmares endured by some of these people are endless.
If the above story makes you lose your appetite, it is time to get seriously hungry for good food again. Do you know that some amazing people in the Kuala Lumpur area here sell "non-halal" local culinary favorites like curry mee, prawn mee, and loh mee at RM4 only?
No doubt, this food outlet we are referring to is of course the famous "Lim Sisters Restaurant" in Kepong. And if you are feeling hungrier than usual, you can get their large bowl for an extra RM0.50. No kidding!
Even though each dish is equally rave-worthy, the star seller here is the mee kari. At a bang for the buck, you get slurp-worthy curry noodles with a lighter-tasting broth that still packs a punch similar to Singapore's famous Katong laksa. Also, each curry mee bowl does not skimp on essential ingredients like coagulated pig blood, beancurd puffs, and soaked cuttlefish.
In these uncertain economic times, their RM4 noodles are a steal for those who want a genuinely economical and good meal but are on a tight budget. Come on guys and gals, where can you find this kind of price for food like this in KL? In addition, portions sold are also pretty decent in size.
So if you are those like me who are drooling over a piping hot bowl of delicious mee kari right now, don't forget to head over to this makan place with your friends and family during the weekends, ya? But be sure to go there early in the morning to avoid the hassle of a long queue later.
