Wantan Noodles(云吞面)- Air Panas New Village, KL

There are still many Chinese new villages within Kuala Lumpur (Ampang N.V and Serdang N.V etc) and these are the places where good traditional food still maintained and exist thru generation after generation. Today I have my breakfast in the village I grew up in.....Air Panas New Village. Although I have moved 25km away from here but I still go back there often to savour my childhood food. Actually there is one very famous Wantan Noodles stall in the Air Panas Wet Market called Choy Kee (财记)which has been passed down from the original owner to his daughter now. The noodles is still tasty but I don't like the char siew there. It is too dry and tasteless.

This Wantan Noodles stall I am going to write about is not as old as 'Choy Kee' but the noodles is delicious. It is located opposite the 4d gaming Toto shop in Air Panas New Village called Home town Wantan Noodls Ping Jie (家乡云吞面屏姐 ). It is a village house but convert to coffee shop.


The front portion of the shop:

This is my dried (kan lo) wantan mee costs RM3.50 per plate come with a bowl of soup with meat dumpling in it.

This is the bbq meat (Char Siew) I like. Not the red or orange coloured type. It is not very sweet and full of bbq sauce aroma. The noodles is very Q and the sauce is not too sweet. I don't like wantan noodles that is either too much ( 猪油味) lard or five spice powder(五香粉味) smell. This has the right amount of both with a taste of shallots oil (红葱油)。

The stall opens about 7am until 11.00 am and closed on Thursday. They have Curry Mee, Chicken Feet Noodles and Soup Noodles.
