Butterworth Leng Gaik's Dry Hokkien Mee (Prawn Mee)


Hokkien Mee, I ate a lot but do you try dry hokkien mee before? Shop selling Koay Teow soup offer dry koay teow th'ng, shop selling wantan mee (suppose to be dry) also offer wantan mee with soup. Now Hokkien mee suppose to be soup one offer dry hokkien mee. 




When eat Hokkien mee, you need to taste the sweetness of prawn from the soup. In order to offer a good dry prawn mee, the sweetness of prawn have to go into the noodles then only be able to taste the sweetness of prawn. In Leng Gaik's Hokkien mee, it seem quite success to bring the sweetness of prawn in dry hokkien mee.
I tried the normal prawn mee as well. Not so bad as dry one really standing out, Prawn mee soup just normal like others. One thing no so good about Leng Gaik's prawn mee is the price, it is expensive for normal hokkien mee. Not like putting a lot of ingredient or whatsoever, 2 bowls of Hokkien mee + a side dish (Chicken Popiah) cost RM10.60.
I know RM10 is nothing nowadays but I still find the hokkien mee here is expensive compare to others. If you want to try the dry hokkien, this place just opposite the Sri Siam Curry Fish Head at Chai Leng Park. If not mistaken, they open morning until the hokkien mee sold out. That day, I went around 2.00pm, the siok bak (pork) already sold out, dry hokkien is the last bowl we ordered. To avoid disappointment, go early lah.
