Fish Head Noodles is a dish that is very widely found in many chinese hawker stalls in Malaysia. Want to know where serves the BEST Fish Head Noodles is at Win Soon Cafe. The one we visited just yesterday was the branch at Kuchai Lama, KL. They have a few branches all around Klang Valley. I am not so sure where they are but I am quite sure they have a branch at Bandar Puteri, Puchong.The upper one is the Fish Paste Noodles which also costed RM7.50 per bowl. The whole bowl is very much similar to the Fish Head Noodles except they replaced the fish head with fish paste. Everything tasted superb as what is stated above but I will like to talk about the fact that they added a few pieces of fried pork skin on top of the soup which really makes the soup smelt and tasted better. The fish paste was very squishy and chewy which is really good.

The lower one is the Fish Head Noodles that costs RM7.50 per bowl. This tasted superb! There is nothing in this bowl that I can complain about. Let's start with the soup. The soup is actually a broth that is cooked using tomatoes, preserved vegetables, spring onions and evaporated milk. Yeah, they use milk in the soup. The soup tasted milky, salty and a little sour because of the tomatoes and the preserved vegetables. I have eaten other fish head noodles, and they can't never get their soup right. It's either too diluted, or doesn't taste of anything at all. But Win Soon's soup had all the flavors that is needed in a bowl of fish head noodles. I always end up drinking all the soup Hehehe.

The fish head inside was fried till crispy and crunchy and went really well went soaked into the soup. The noodles that was used was rice vermicelli which we call it Bee Hoon in Malaysia. This noodle is used because it is able to absorb the taste of the soup.

Besides selling noodles, they have other side dishes sold. And if you're not in the mood of eating noodles or maybe you're in a no carb diet, you can just choose to have only their fish head soup. The shop is usually very crowded on the weekends and on lunch hour, so be prepared to wait for table. We went there around 10ish in the morning but we didn't need to wait for our table Their service there is also efficient and fast. It didn't take long for them to serve us our food.

Just recently, I had a chance to try Din Tai Fung's set lunch which recently just started not too long ago. Their set lunch was a 2 course meal with drinks and dessert with additional charges. Din Tai Fung is an award wining restaurant that is originated from Taiwan. Like restaurants like Dragon-I, Din Tai Fung is famous for it's small steam buns (Xiao Long Bao). Malaysia is just one of the many countries that have the opportunity to have a taste of Din Tai Fung's gastronomy. Some other countries as lucky as Malaysia are The United States, Hong Kong and Thailand.So for the first course meal, you are given four choices. You are given the choice to choose between, Hot & Sour Soup La Mian, Shrimp Pork Wantan La Mian, Cha Jiang La Mian and Pork Chop Fried Rice. We had noodles for our breakfast, so we settled on their Pork Chop Fried Rice. Their pork chop was fried to perfection. Their fried rice looked pretty simple with ingredients like egg, garlic and spring onions, but do not under estimate it. The fried rice was simple but good! It wasn't too oily or too dry. The type of rice they used was very much similar to Japanese rice. The fried pork chop went really well with the fried rice. The set also comes with a basket their famous xia long bao which comes in six pieces. So what is xiao long bao exactly? Xiao long bao is actually steam buns that the filling consist of meat (usually pork) and other ingredients. What's so special about xiao long bao is that, besides the meat filling, inside the xiao long bao contains a small amount of some kind of broth/soup. I ordered ourselves some dessert which was an additional RM4++. With every set lunch, you are allowed to order any choice of desserts which was featured in their menu for only RM4++! I ordered ourselves a bowl of Red Bean with Black Sesame Glutinous Ball. Their red bean soup was really special and nothing like can be found in other dessert shop or restaurants. Their red bean soup was really smooth and could not taste any bits or pieces of red bean. We think that the blend the red bean to make their red bean soup. So it tasted awesomely good! Not to forget their black sesame glutinous rice balls! There are two balls for each bowl. Their black sesame tasted so fresh and the layer of glutinous was so chewy. It is a really good dessert! Very highly recommended!

Shredded Chicken and Century Egg porridge [RM6.50]. The century egg pieces given was very disappointing. We think they only gave us half on a century egg for such a generous amount of porridge. This porridge was really smooth and good. The pork innards porridge had more taste. I had also have tried before their frog porridge, which was also not too bad Pork Innards Porridge [RM 7.50]. This porridge contains of pork a mixture of pig innards. That brown thing on top of the porridge are actually fried pork intestines which was really crunchy and crispy and went really well with the porridge. The additional slices of ginger and spring onions just made the aroma of the porridge better.

Taiwan is at the top of the list of the few countries that we MUST go some day in our lives. The main reason is that that country is famous for it's food. Now, with all the technology and how the world is improving, we don't only get to eat Taiwanese food in Taiwan itself. We already can have their food in our country. Honestly, the Taiwanese food is starting to conquer the food industry in Malaysia. Like the bubble tea, taiwanese desserts like Snowflake and not to forget their snacks like the XXL chicken and the mee sua that can be found in various stalls like Shihlin, Farmosa and Xiao Bar Wang, the stall that we are going to talk about today.I ordered their Jumbo Set [RM15.90]. Their Jumbo Set consist of a bowl of Mee Sua with meat balls, one Tea Egg, Crispy Chicken and a drink of you choice, which you can choose from Flower Tea, Black Sugar Lime and Milk Tea. Let's start with their Mee Sua. Comparing to other Taiwanese stalls, the smell of the Mee Sua isn't as strong because they didn't use Oyster. They replaced it with meat balls. But we really like it. The consistency was good and the noodles were soft and the soup had the right amount of seasoning. With additional cilantro and a little chili paste, the mee sua tasted even better with a better aroma. Not to forget the amount of mee sua was so much, it can be shared for two people. For the Tea Egg, it was just average, nothing special. But I really like the drink we ordered! We had their Black Sugar Lime. It wasn't too sour. Had the right amount of sweetness. A suitable drink for a hot day.This is their Crispy Chicken. Something really good about it is that, they do not fry the first. It's when you order, then they fry it on the spot for you. So when it's served, it's hot and crispy. It's really good, because the layer of the flour is really crunchy and crispy. It had the right ratio of flour and chicken. You know sometimes they have too much flour and too little chicken. This is really good. One more good thing is that it comes in small pieces. So you don't have to tear the chicken with our mouth and get our mouth dirty and oily. I also ordered their Bento Pork Rice [RM10.90]. It comes with steam rice top over with fried pork, steam vegetables, half of the tea egg, salty vegetables and a piece of potato steamed with a certain sauce. The pork pieces went really well with the steamed rice, and the vegetable was not bitter at all, meaning it's fresh. The salty vegetable was a tit a little too salty. The potato tasted good, but it was a little cold already.

So what does the term Formosa actually mean? If you do not know this, back like centuries ago, the place we call now Taiwan is not called Taiwan. They call that place Formosa. This means, historically Taiwan was actually named Formosa by the Portuguese which actually means beautiful island. Let's look closer to the food shall we? In Formosa, it's a little different because, they have a lot of set meals. And these set meals are really affordable and convenient for students and also office workers. But for that day, we ordered a bowl of Oyster Mee Sua [RM4++]. Sorry, I forgotten the exact price of the food. The bowl of mee sua was so gooood. To top it off, the few drops of peppers and coriander and oyster, makes it all better. It was served hot and it tasted even better. I sweated so much while eating because of the goodness of this bowl. I couldn't stop eating it. They served their chili paste separately, so that's good. Because if you don't want it to be too spicy, then you can put lesser. Alter it according to your choice!I also ordered one of their sets. But I forgotten what's the name of the set. The set consisted of a really large piece of Fried Chicken, Braised Tofu and Egg and also a bowl of Steamed Rice with some preserved vegetables and some gravy on the top [RM10]. This was also so good! I saw most of their customers having the fried chicken set. Because it's really cheap and satisfying to have it for lunch! Their fried chicken was crispy from top to bottom. And it wasn't too oily. Their tofu and egg was filled with the herbs aroma. The rice and the chicken is a really good combination.

The food in Formosa is really so good, that makes me going back all the time. Many people don't know that Asian Avenue has so many stalls of good food. Please drop by their stall to make my tummies happy!
