Scan the racks for the latest Korean or Hong Kong fashion ( so claimed the stall owners), salivate at the colourful cakes and breads, check your reflection in the shiny stainless steel crockery, catch a whiff of dried Chinese herbs, you can do all this (and more) while weaving your way through the OUG wet market crowd .
Restoran Sun Sea is across the street from the OUG market and filled with goodies. You can get ‘pan mien’, ‘pork ball noodles’, char koay teow, mee jawa, wat tharn hor, curry mee- the works ( almost)
We ordered pork ball bee hoon, and you don’t just get minced pork patties (also intestine and liver) , you also get squid and prawns plus generous amount of vege. I find the soup overly sweet though
The char koay teow was not too bad, tasty and not too oily
The curry mee didn’t look too impressive when it arrived ( the portion didn’t seemed that big too ) , the gravy was a bit on the thin side but luckily that didn’t compromise the taste. Tried to look for some chicken meat, but you get prawns instead , with taugeh and tau-pok. Not bad.
I was intrigued by the stickers on the table advertising Authentic 3 layer tea. Below is the studio version
Below is the ‘real’ kopitiam version. the drink is actually : tea + milk + gula melaka ( palm sugar) . The verdict ? the gula melaka overpowered the other 2 ingredients and I felt like I was sipping cendol worrr..how ? a bit too sweet for me and errr..i don’t think I will order this again
Recommend to try the Pan Mien , it’s pretty good, Jawa mee -average and uummm..had bad experience with the wat tharn hor though
Parking can be a problem at OUG wet market, we parked further away at a small lorong and hmm…guess what I found ? ….. now I know why traffic is so bad at OUG lorr.. or maybe too many people fell through the manhole and someone decide to make it noticeable or maybe this is a landing spot for UFO ? or maybe this is Malaysia’s smallest roundabout ?
