The history of Chilli Pan Mee can be debatable but there is no doubt that Kin Kin Chilli Pan Mee claims the title for best chili pan mee. It’s no wonder the shop is always full of customers despite the attitude from the owners (very famous for bad service). Ever since I had my first taste as a tourist several years ago, I’ve been in love. Let's take a look at the famous chili pan mee.

Let's take a look at the famous chili pan mee.
The toppings: Seasoned minced meat, perfectly poached egg, fried shallots, fried anchovies, finished with chopped spring onions atop plain springy noodles made in-house (albeit with a machine). The chili is served separately in a big container. I love my food super spicy (go hard or go home right?) and I always put 4 spoonfuls (yes, crazy). If you have been to Kin Kin you'd know their paste is superb. Well caramelised and definitely explosive, it adds so much flavours to the noodles. Of course, there are plenty of msg involved, that's why I generally limit my visit to few times a year.
After adding the chili paste, you poke the egg yolk and mix everything together. Then slurp away! The umaminess of the anchovies, minced meat and the aromatic fried shallots will bring your tastebud to noodle heaven. Not pictured was the small bowl of soup with pucuk manis, ready to take the spiciness down if it's too much to handle. Around RM6-7 per portion, and sometimes I even go for the second bowl! Admitedly I don't do it that often but when the cravings strike, I can't help myself. Hehe.Post
