Bangkok Lane Mee Goreng

I can still remember the episode where Jason from 阿贤人情味 came down to Penang and visited the Bankok Lane mee goreng. The mee goreng stall is actually located inside Sheng Li coffee shop and is run by an Indian who spoke some Hokkien. Through out the show, he repeatedly say this is the best mee goreng in Malaysia! Real or not?? Makan King and Queen definitely cannot take his words for granted, we have to taste it ourselves!

One sunny day, Makan King & Queen hopped into our tiny car and drove down to Burma road to try out "the best mee goreng". Yup, we saw the Indian guy who was on the TV all right...now lets get down to business.



To try out their variety, we ordered a plate of Mee Rebus and a plate of Mee Goreng.

The mee rebus came first...hmmmm, why taste so so only? The sotong got some smell...and the mee rebus is not spicy and sour enough. I expect it to be much better. :((


Next came the famous mee gerong, lol....hmmm...why taste normal only? Though the mee goreng was lavishly laden with fried sotong, we think that the mee gerong is not up to our expectation as well.

WHERE IS THE BEST MEE GORENG IN MALAYSIA?

The mee goreng used to be good but now most customers have complained about it. I did noticed two workers taking turns to fried the noodles. Could that be the reason?

Personally not a huge fan of mee goreng but the stall at the food court next to Fort Cornwallis, beside the field, serves up a really mean version! It's open for lunch. We were there at about 3PM and it was still a good half hour wait (at least!) for our orders!

ck lam, ya there are 2 workers there, but the main one was there when we ordered the mee goreng.

550ml, we heard about fort cornwallis, and my hubby went there before too. It taste spicier.

squall, nvm, it is not too good.

oh man. That's disappointing! I hope u find the best mee goreng soon!! Coz.. i want to go!

gill gill said...

i always believe the taste and quality will be different, before and after they get famous. Haa....

Do you know why?
famous = lots of people order your food = have to serve fast = mass production, so do u think this is the best still??...lol

Here, i did post a blog regarding this mee goreng stall...

he, have u guys tried the one along Burmah ROad (opposite APT Hair Academy OR Next to New World Park?)

the Mee Goreng & Mee Rebus by a chinese Aunty are superb! even their char beehoon! gosh... not ot mention the Nasi Goreng.

however, the shop only opens after 1pm. Unlikely to taste them during lunch hour for those who are working.

I AM NOT KIDDING!

Hello, totally greeable with hungry-Ghost! I went there at around 3 pm or so, initially, tried the mee goreng... its mind-blowing. after eating mee goreng, it made me feel hungrier! so, i tried the mee rebus OHMYGOD.... it taste so nice. my husband tried the nasi goreng and i of course 'curi' makan a spoonful and its NICE oso. My hubby oso ordered the mee hoon goreng.. by then, we are VERY VERY full. so, the bihun goreng, i tapau balik. Not bad too! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! BESIDES, THE STALL IS CLEAN!!! cleanliness is very important for me!
