An Unremarkable Roadside Eatery Of Mantin

      Located at the road side at the front of Taman Asoka, opposite Taman Bunga Raya, is this crude and make-shift stall of Mantin. We were there on a Friday morning. The place was packed and many were standing, waiting for empty table. We managed to get a table. The lady who took order from us told us that the day's speciality was ' pig-leg mee '; we ordered one. We also ordered a laksa beehoon-mee with yong-liu.
                                        
   The pig-leg noodles came with a generous amount of pork trotters, which were very well-stewed and so soft that it simply melted in our mouths. The pickled chilly is a good complement to the dish.
Of course, when you have something like this, just put all thoughts of calories and cholesterol behind your head.
 

 Next came our laksa mee/beehoon. There was a piece of yong toufu, a piece yong brinjal, some toufu-pok and a generous quantity of si-ham. This laksa is nice, and among the best in Mantin. The only drawback is that the si-ham were over-cooked.
  We paid a total of RM 9 for the two dishes. Well, I will say it's cheap and good.
