KL - Cycling Makan Trip

It was the Raya holidays and I join wildgeeks J&J for a bike ride to Kuala Lumpur downtown from Sri Petaling. We started in Sri Petaling and cycled about 12-13km to Jalan Pasar where we stopped at Taste of Fookchow ( Coordinates: 3.13222, 101.71694) for some famous fookchow fishballs.

We arrived at about 7.45am at the Taste of Fookchow which is located at Jalan Badak in the Jalan Pasar area. It use to be situated at the main Jalan Pasar road next to the wet market and same row as the famous May King. The place only open at 8.00am but the owner was kind enough to open early for us.

Me and Joe got the fookchow fishball noodles in soup while Jack, a fookchow fella ordered the red rice wine chicken noodles. The fookchow fishball is basically fish paste filled with minced pork inside and its absolutely yummy. We actually top up another 10 fishballs because its that good. The chili sauce given with the fishball is a must have, it looks like blended green bird chilies and they are spicy!

The red rice wine noodles are fantastic too, the rice wine flavour is not too heavy and blends in very nicely with the chicken.

You can also buy the fishballs in frozen packets for take-aways to just keep and cook at home. I was actually looking forward to the fookchow pancake which they sell at this shop. Its a very crispy pancake filled with meat/vege inside, the original one have oysters inside but its hard to keep. Unfortunately, its too early and they have not start making it. So, the next time I am in the area, I am going back for some fookchow pancake, and maybe another bowl of fishballs :)

After the noodles, we cycled to Brickfields for some good teh tarik and vadai at Sapporo Curry House. Of course they had a lot more varieties of Indian food here but we can hardly fill more after all the fishballs we got greedy with.

After that, we head back to Sri Petaling through Old Klang Road. More information and photos (with gps locations) on the cycling trip is available at wildgeek's website
