Pan Meen at Taman Sri Muda
One of our common lunch hunt is at “3’o clock”. To reach this coffee shop we need make a 3 o’clock turn from the roundabout. Hence the nick.

Anyway the the main attraction here is the Pan Meen. Girls loves it, guys wonder why girls loves it since have to wait so long to eat.. The Pan mee
There are a few variation to the homemade noodles dough:
1. Meeet (hand torn pieces- most authentic)
2. Pan Meen (long flat noodle)
3. Eu-Meen (long rounded – like yellow noodles).
The noodles dough are rolled over the noodles maker once / twice before being cut into choiced shape (variety 2 and 3)
Serving styles can also differ. You an also choose to have your pan meen served :
1. Dry, blanch noodles with soya sauce, accompanied by small bowl of soup
2. Soup – noodles in ikan bilis soup stock..
Either way, the noodles are generously topped with soy fried minced meat mixed with sliced black fungus, crispy ikan bilis and sweet leaves (“mani chai”). Yummz..
Noodles comes with 2 types of chilies, the fiery green chili padi with soy sauce and milder sambal (red, green chili with a hint of belacan) drench with lot of calamasi limes. J has this fetish of dipping her noodles into both types of chilies. So usually she takes longer time to finish her pan meen compared to the rest of us.
Alternatively, if you are not into the homemade noodles, you can have ‘tau gee’. (Rice based kuih teow like noodles that comes in a pack – can buy from shops) This is served with 2 fish balls & medium sized prawns in the same soup based.
Usually I will request for hand torn noodles with fish ball & prawn in soup. Best of Both World .. since I find this combination not so oily as compared to its original version.
Whilst this review seemed to idolized the pan meen, it does come with one major fault.. MSG in soup!! So usually will have to drink more water after eating this.
Other than this featured pan meen, this coffee shop’s chicken rice (blanched white chicken), mixed pork soup, tai chow are good as well. But we hardly try them since we need to get our weekly pan meen dosage.
Many of our more seasoned colleagues actually boycott this coffee shop since they had very bad experience with the snobbish owners. But for us who haven’t “kena” we still patrol on weekly basis.
The only thing that I don’t like is the stingy fruit seller aunty that asked everyone who pass by her stall if they want to buy fruits. Her fruits are so cut so small but overpriced! I bet she is one of the shop owner’s relatives…
