My last post was last month. And it was about Mooncake Festival happening in Batu Kawa Old Town. This post also happening in the same town.
It was my parents' treat last Sunday at this well known Hakka coffee shop. 11 of us in 3 cars met up at this shop for early dinner around 5pm. Some tables were reserved and luckily we were able to get a big round table then.
The shops in Batu Kawa old town were upgraded before, so presentable and nicer. Look how long they were. Almost the double size of current shophouses that we have nowadays.
This place is popular with its fried mien sien (mee suah). Hakka fried style with cangkuk manis, egg and dried prawns.
After fried mee suah, next on our table was this mei chai kou rou (pork belly with preserved mustard). Not too salty and meat was chunky yet mouth melting, just nice to go with white rice.
Its signature fried beancurd was well accepted around the table, everyone really enjoyed it with the sweet spicy dipping.
For vegetable, my dad ordered this Thai style spicy and sour midin salad.
Kids' favourite; fried chicken which was really crispy and tasty. Not only the kids, the adults also loved its juiciness and flavour.
When mention about Batu Kawa, one thing come to mind is its fish balls. The famous handmade fish balls soup was equally good with tasty, fresh fish paste.
Lastly, we had this salted fish pork belly stir fried.
Overall a great sumptuous dinner.

What a mouthwatering meal! I love esp. that braised pork belly!
I have not eaten fried Mee Suah for a long time. I think the last time I ate that was in Penang over 10 years ago.
I could see that the fried chicken in the photo looked very crispy. Yummy!
those dishes very tantalising! I would eat bowls and bowls of rice with these!
Yes, all the dishes I like to have too! Now I am very hungry.... must go look for food now!
Aha! We had our Mooncake Festival dinner at a coffee shop too - it was a restaurant before but they closed it down and is now running their business at their coffee shop downstairs. Simple surroundings but most important is the food is nice. Yours look very good too!
Wah, what a big feast! Can eat is good so carpe diem! 👍 😊
All looks good, I must go and try soon.
I ate fried mee suah a long time ago and I enjoyed it a lot.
