Curry Mee Wiki

Curry Mee is a dish that is unique to Malaysia, usually made up of thin yellow egg noodles or/and string thin mee-hoon (rice vermicelli) with spicy curry soup, coconut milk, and a choice of dried tofu, prawns, cuttlefish, chicken, egg and mint leaves. However, what makes Curry Mee is a special chilli/sambal and pig's blood. The pig's blood is usually coagulated, and in cubes, but can be omitted by choice.

I was surprised by a very nice curry mee with extra curry chicken at a coffee shop in Gurney drive. Next to the nasi kandar place. Only costs rm3.50 but was really worth it.

Had fun taking close up shots of my breakfast. This was at the New Cathay Coffee shop in Pulau Tikus opposite Belissa Row. The curry mee is superb.

Bet you can't find this at your Tesco...Surprisingly not bad. Pretty thick santan(coconut milk) curry soup to spice up your day. If you cannot handle the hot stuff, do not stir in the chilly.

All the hawkers from "watau lane have moved there now. There are 2 curry mee stalls. I think the one closer to the beverage counter is much better. The santan/coconut milk in the soup is so nice...mmmm.
