Getting thereYou just need to locate the central wet morning market or the famed Steven’s Corner (the original one). This un-named corner shop (see picture) is located across from the market’s uncovered car-park area.

ParkingThere is an uncovered car-park area which is hassle-free (but not free) but most people just park their cars around the area for free (which includes both commercial & residential). However, this could test your patience as the parking here can be quite haphazard & harrowing.

ServiceOrders are placed at the stall and although there is tremendous customer traffic and extreme chaos, for some strange reason, they are able to get your orders right almost every time perfectly.

AmbienceThis place honestly needs a long-overdue renovation. Altho’ brightly lit and quite well-ventilated, it is dirty and decrepit with oily cum wet floors which can be slippery if you are not careful (check out the floor tiles from the photos).

TasteThis place serves great pork noodles. They add deep-fried pork lard (Jue Yow Jar or Keropok) generously in all their food. So, if you are a little concerned about the cholesterol levels, you may want to skip this.

PresentationIt is good to know that there are stalls like this one that still use the traditional Chinese porcelain bowls (with painted chicken artwork outside).

VarietyBesides the standard with soup/dry varieties, they are also very well-known for their pork noodles with added seafood. This is a must-try variety. My personal favourite is to have it dry.
Value for MoneyAt under RM5 a bowl, it’s good-value and great-tasting.

Overall
Whenever there is a craving for pork noodles, this place comes to mind.

Food Review - Ah Loy's Curry Noodles and Asam Laksa

Name
Kedai Makanan Ah Loy (Lunch and Dinner)
Address
11-13, Jalan Hujan Rahmat 3, OUG.
Food
Curry Noodles and Asam Laksa
Location
OUG, Old Klang Road

Getting there
Take the normal route as you would toward the OUG wet market. The shop is located diagonally across from the BHP Petrol Station. Parking
DO NOT go on Thursdays! This is because the Pasar Malam (Night Market) is there on Thursdays. You will get caught in a massive gridlock on Thursdays. On other days, traffic is also quite heavy. There are many parking bays in the area but getting a spot would be a challenge as parking is VERY haphazard, so you need to be patient.

Service
No frills and quick altho’ you might need to wait for about 10-20 minutes for the food to be served – depending on the crowd.

Ambience
The place is old, but clean enough to have a comfortable meal. The inner section is air-conditioned.

Taste & Presentation

I have to say I really LOVED the fried noodles more than any other item from their menu. I find myself keep going back to the fried Tai Look Mee. The way they had cooked it has the thick yummy gravy seeped into the noodles – the way it should be.

Variety
They have quite a number of items including Yong Tau Foo and desserts (like Hung Dau Sui) but they are famous for their Curry Noodles and Asam Laksa. You will get a better idea when you are at the place as the paper clippings are all over the walls. Their wait staff will also be able to assist you if you are at a loss as to what to order. Value for Money
Almost all the items from their menu is under RM5 each. ‘Nuff said.
Overall
Great place to eat. Great taste and great value. The only thing I don’t like is the parking.
