Cantonese Kway Teow
•
My mom really likes Madam Kwan’s Cantonese kway teow. She tends to order Cantonese kway teow anyway whenever we eat out and if it’s on the menu, but highly likely she’ll say other places can’t compare to the one at Madam Kwan’s. I agree with her opinion.

Chicken Char Siu with a Pressure Cooker

One of my favorite things to order whenever I go for dim sum is their BBQ chicken buns, or char siu chicken buns. There are a number of good halal dim sum places in KL, but we rarely eat out anyway, so meals there are few and far between usually. Here’s my first attempt…
