Man Kee HK Beef Noodle Restaurant 民記港式牛腩麵@ Mid Valley Megamall

We were at Mid Valley Megamall rather early that day for someone’s last minute Chinese New Year shopping. (˘έ˘)  But before all the walking and shopping, we had to have a good breakfast to refuel and gives us the energy to complete our mission of the day!

 

It didn’t take long for us to decide to settle our breakfast at Man Kee HK Beef Noodle since we were rather famished that time. With its successful first establishment at Bangsar (Telawi Square), this is the second outlet which has a bigger space to accommodate Hong Kong style beef noodle lovers.

Tables and chairs were placed both inside and outside the restaurant. The interior was vibrantly decorated with Hong Kong style street signboards and posters which evoke the city’s regional characteristics.

 

The history and story of Man Kee HK Beef Noodle. 

As the name suggests, Man Kee has Hong Kong style beef noodles as their headliner. Other than the usual beef slices, beef balls, beef brisket, tendon, stomach and intestines, Man Kee also offers the premium Wagyu beef brisket as ala carte dish or go with either noodle (Koay Teow, Meehoon and Wonton Mee) or rice. But you mustn’t lose sight of their Hainanese Chicken Rice (RM20) which is another sought-after dish here. Other choices in the menu included Egg Drop Minced Beef Soup (RM16), cuttlefish balls noodles (RM18), pork offal noodle (RM17), Char Siew Rice (RM18), curry rice with beef brisket (RM25), pork/chicken chop (RM19), various of congee (RM17-20), rice dishes such as Braised Roasted Pork Rice (RM18), Fried Dace with Salted Black Beans Fried Price (RM18), Prawn Silky Egg Rice (RM18), noodle dishes such as House Special Black Bean Noodles (RM18), Braised Vegetable Noodles (RM16), as well as Nissin Noodles with assorted topping like Ginger & Spring Onion Pork Chop, Sausage & Egg, Satay Beef (RM16-18)

 

 

Hong Kong Style Milk Tea & Coffee (RM8.00)

 

3 Combo Noodle (RM26.00)

The 3 Combo comprised beef brisket, honeycomb stomach and tendon. The broth in dark mahogany hue was richly infused with bovine goodness and mild in herbal flavour with  sweet endnote. The innards were stewed perfectly with the right amount of tenderness and all the flavours nicely absorbed. There was a bit of preserved vegetables too but I thought it didn’t contribute much to the overall flavour. My only gripe was the tendon and beef brisket in my bowl was a little too fatty for my liking.

 

Homemade Beef Ball Noodle (RM18.00)

Firm and bouncy beef balls, nothing to complaint.

 

Signature Fried Beef Kuey Teow (RM18.00)

The Kon Chao Hor was as good as it looks. Good hit of breathe of wok in the Kuey Teow and nice savory in flavours. Lots of crunchy beansprouts, chives and tender beef slices and in the noodles. Faultless and pretty darn good!

 

Verdict: As far as the food was concerned, it was a good dining experience. I wouldn’t say no to a second visit, perhaps for their another noteworthy dish – Hainanese Chicken Rice.
