We seldom go to Midvalley as it's quite far from our home. Last December went there coz Papa bringing Ah Kong and Ah Mah for their quarterly check up at the hospital.
Since it's near Christmas time, Mamarazzi and me pun cabut to Midvalley for a tad of Christmas shopping la.
They had flora or something theme last year. Personally, Mamarazzi doesn't feel much of Chrismassy with this theme. It looked very pretty but....
The Flowers arrangement was very pretty. She kept asking me to stand next to it to snap pic. But but.....they put floral scent on the flowers leh....Me don't likey flora scent.
Before start shopping...gotta fill the tummy first leh. Not yet 10am....walk here walk there...shop and makan shop not opened. Thought wanna eat Esquire Kitchen breakfast geh....RM5+ only leh...but the went there....dunno moved to where already.
Went up to the food court near the cinema....most have not open yet.....saw one stall opened...stood there for some time....figuring out what to order and finally decided...told the staff....mana tau the staffs said "Sorry no open. Not ready yet". Really a "GRRRRRR!!!" moment there lor...what lah....stood there so long looking at the menu, the staff saw us, cannot tell us ka? Have to wait we open mouth to order baru wanna say they are not open yet!
Actually he was still preparing the noodle but the cheerful face really glitched the deal. Quite a few others waited for him to pull the noodles.
While waiting, Mamarazzi noticed that this stall seems to be famous leh. Got quite a few newspaper clippings featuring this stall pasted there.
And elderly couple also stopped by to chat with the man. From their Q & A, Mamarazzi got to know that they are Chinese Muslim from China. The man have many years preparing La Mien in China. Come to Malaysia to seek his fortune.
The La Mien in China is not the same taste as in Malaysia coz of the water. In China they use water from something something river/well(sorry ah ...Mamarazzi's Mandarin half pail only)...In Malaysia they cannot get that water.
Here is our bowl of tomato and egg La Mien. May not look much but....
There...loads of La Mien hidden under the soup. Very big bowl. Mamarazzi and me ate also cannot finish that bowl of noodle.
Taste. Mamarazzi likes it pretty much. For me.....it would be great if it's not spicy. Didn't know that it's spicy coz thought Tomato and eggs must be clear soup mah. Hmmm....must remember to ask before ordering next time.
Tomato and egg lo Mein, YUM!!! I LOVE Lo Mein and this looks like the best! You must have been very early cause everything else was closed. I hope they got a good checkup at the doctor.

ReplyDeletewah...u pandai enjoy wor...eat with Xiao Loong Bao.
Deleteyalor it seems like Ah Kong and Ah Mah always come to KL to get Paparazzi to drive them all the way from home to downtown hor?? hehehe, but then good lah, Mamarazzi and Small Kucing can then go shopping in MV and probably savor Mamarazzi's favorite CKT at Brickfiekds.. :p
ReplyDeleteEvery quarter the come here for check up la.
DeleteHahaha...ya lor...can go downtown eat and buy roast duck leh
yeah, Uncle SK also not really like the Christmas deco in MV last year, feel it's too over already, got one year they have all the huge toys, that was Uncle SK's favorite.. maybe same like Small Kucing, we don't fancy big flowers, hihihi~~ :p
ReplyDeleteyea....Mamarazzi loves the huge toys too. This year doesnt feel like very chrismassy
Deleteawww, too early there and not all shops open?? I think usually after 11am would be safer.. hmmmm stood there so long in the Food Republic foodcourt baru being told they are not open yet?? KN***B betul~~
ReplyDeleteNah...coz the grandparents have to be in the hospital by 8am mah...so drop by to see a friend at her office then cabut to midvalley lo
Deleteoh Lan Zhou, this is from China and though Uncle SK doesn't know where exactly is the origin of la mien in China, he knows Chinese la mien and Japanese ramen are very different.. this egg la mien looks good leh, like so loaded dei~~
ReplyDeleteMamarazzi wanna try their beef soup la mien next time . That day it was not ready yet but can smell the soup boiling,.very fragrant
DeleteYalor...what kind of Christmas decor, is that? The owner(s) one of those - cannot wish people Marty Christmas one, is it? Celebration is banned in Brunei now...already announced that day.
ReplyDelete"The owner(s) one of those"...dun understand what you mean.
DeleteMy guess is this year the team who in charge of decoration wanna have Fairy Theme. But kinda oppss..by putting like summer in Fairyland instead of winter
The decorations looks like CNY to me...
ReplyDeleteHahaha....coz you in CNY mood liao is it?
DeleteGood morning...
ReplyDeleteI am sure the combination of tomato and eggs is good!
It was :)
DeleteMany don't like the flowers smell.. allergic to the pollen.. they will sneeze and sneeze... but those flowers are really enormous la... if real one, hak sei yan... but for decoration, they look very pretty...
ReplyDeleteit's not real flower. They just spray the perfume or something on it
DeleteChina Muslim mostly in Xinjiang region, their food mostly spicy one, if you request not spicy, they might not make it deliciously liao..
ReplyDeleteMaybe la...
DeleteI also thought that theme this year has no feeling of Christmas, so much flower for what meh??? Not like flora festival, and they did put some mushrooms also....make it even so not like it!!!
ReplyDeleteoh....Mamarazzi thought only she felt this
DeleteFlora scent should be nice ma! Why J don't like leh? Hehe...
ReplyDeleteeach to his own lor
DeleteAh I just went there last 2 weekends (first to order milk powder, 2nd to collect). Didn't like it though, way too many people around.
ReplyDeleteAs for scent, I also don't like the strong rose one from Lovely Lace.
That one la...was standing near the rose.
DeleteI agree about shopping or walking about malls and hungers. Its the same with you. Nice bowl of noodles though I too seldom go to Mid Valley - cannot tahan the weekend crowd especially.
ReplyDeletethe place always crowded
DeleteI always go to Mid Valley, I will check this out to see any non spicy version or not because I also can't eat spicy food. Must be a very big bowl since both of you also cannot finish it.
ReplyDeleteyes it ws a big bowl
DeleteYep... I could eat a huge bowl of those noodles right now.
ReplyDeletesure does...cool weather over there
