Review: Shin Kee Beef Noodles Specialist (Evening Edition)

**Non-Halal**


Thank you guys for your well wishes. I think I'm better now albeit the lingering cough, something that will take time and numerous concoctions to cure. Now, let's get back to some blogging business.

Did you know that before Shin Kee Beef Noodles Specialist operates from the hole-in-the-wall shop at Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock (opens from 10:30am to 3:30pm); they started off at a cart at the lane between Hong Leong Bank and Chinatown Food Court at Jalan Hang Lekir? I used to go there for a bowl of hearty beef noodles after office hours with my colleagues then.

The stall is still operation now but opens only in the evening. There are few tables available here, so most times one might need to share a tiny table with other patrons. Service is very quick here and I have my bowl of dry mee and hor fun (flat rice noodles) with beef balls and meat slices in a jiffy. The mee served here is not of the yellow oily kind but it's the flat egg noodles. Gave the bowl of noodles a thorough mix with the minced meat and slurped them down. It's still as good as I could remember.

The minced meat sauce is well seasoned and melded well with the noodles be it dry or soupy style. The beef balls are bouncy and the sliced beef is tender, best when dipped into the chilli sauce. I emptied the bowl of broth so do I need to tell you how good this is heh? Did not feel thirsty after a bowl of this ;-)

So I'm glad that I can head to Shin Kee at Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock for brunch or lunch and to Jalan Hang Lekir for dinner.

Well other than Shin Kee, Soong Kee is our favourite too for a quick and easy dinner. The best soupy version for me can be found at Lai Foong Restaurant. Nearer home, we loved Restoran 3U for their beef balls, beef tendon balls and stewed beef noodles!
