Curry laksa, char kuey teow, wantan mee, hokkien mee, mee goreng and more – slurp on these top noodles in the city
From the comforting soupy bowls of noodles to the fried variety usually reserved for late night cravings, we’ve got you covered. Here are KL’s top noodle dishes.
Aunt Christina’s Sarawak Laksa may have moved from Bangsar's Lucky Garden, but the noodles remain as good as ever. Most notable is the tangy broth, robust with herbs and spices, and thickened with coconut milk; it swims with thicker-than-vermicelli noodles, topped with plump king prawns, egg strips and taugeh.

Nail the triumvirate of wantan mee – the egg noodles, dumplings and char siu – and you’ll build yourself a legion of fervent followers. Hung Kee on Jalan Loke Yew has been around for 50 years, serving great char siu that is nicely charred around the edges with the perfect ratio of fatty to lean bits.
RM8.50 (small)
