Kam Heong, Petaling Jaya

So I think this place is called Restoran (Restaurant) Kam Heong and I'd like to be really sure (and I can't read Chinese) but every time I look it up or check the location, the only thing that seems to be mentioned about the place is the amazing braised duck rice (which I unfortunately did not get to try). However, what brought us (my sister and I) to the place initially was a craving for Sarawak Kolo Mee and the fact that it was literally 5 minutes from my sisters' place made it too good an opportunity to pass up.

So off we went hoping to get a taste of home (within 5minutes?) however that place is like a maze of small lanes. We did eventually find it after doing 2 loops around the area and I am so happy we didn't give up. Also don't be deceived by the word restaurant- it really is more like a coffee shop. We got pretty lucky with getting a seat and a table but sitting there and watching the patrons that came after us, its probably just first time luck that we got one so conveniently. 

We went with the intention of having Kolo Mee but I got sidetracked by the yummy looking Char Kueh Tiaw and decided to go with that seeing as good Kueh Tiaw is hard to find here in Singapore. I do NOT like the mix of Char Kueh Tiaw and Mee. I prefer my dishes savory and the yellow noodles just make it sweet and takes away from the actual flavor that I like. The noodles were not swimming in a plate of grease and had cockles and Chinese lap-cheong in it- PERFECT!!! It made my day. 

My sister ordered the Hainanese Chicken Curry Bee Hoon which was also really good. The broth was rich without being too thick. A nice surprise was the generous amount of cockles they served with the dish. 

In the end we decided to try the Kolo Mee if only for the sake of killing the craving. It was only average sad to say but I am trying to justify that maybe it's because I was full and happy.

I would definitely go back to try it again. I hope I can stick to the game plan!
