Famous Seremban Favourites (FSF) Restaurant
I'm a char siu slut. I love all types of char siu (barbequed pork). But the best ones are usually the ones that are sweet (but not necessarily sticky like, say, the one found in Salak South), slightly charred and melt-in-your-mouth. Now how does one explain "melt-in-your-mouth" in relation to meat? Well, imagine that you're toothless. This type of meat doesn't require much chewing, but slowly disintegrates in your mouth as you bite (not literally, if you're toothless, but I suppose you can use your gums in such a case!) into the tender char siu bits.
Boo_licious introduced a wonderful char siu to me. It fulfilled all my criteria for good char siu, and life has never been the same since.
Another great find at this kopitiam is hakka mee. The dish looks simple enough. Yellow, egg noodles covered with minced pork and topped with chopped spring onions. Don't be misled by the appearance. Despite its simplicity, this is one tasty dish.
One can also find good fishballs here. Pillow-soft, I have no complains about the fishballs.

aaaaaaaaaargh.........shouldnt log onto your site on monday morning...now this will haunt me like an itch that wont go away.
Oh you are famous now!! Kekeke...STAR has made u a STAR!
Anyway, char siew looks fantastic. So fat, and I love it! Though I'm not a char siew slut like you la. Kakaka..
Coming here makes me insanely hungry!
BBO:
well, I thought it was far too (and I work in KL, k), but I took all of 20 minutes to get there. Not too bad, rite?
fbb:
want me to scratch?
tankiasu:
hahaha.
Yeah...the fatty bits are so yummy!!
I love the char siew and hakka mee there too. Especially when it comes out hot aaround 9.30am, yum yum. Apparently they make a killer siew yoke too, but not everyday. I have not been lucky to taste it yet.
cynthia:
LOL! Exactly how I feel when I visit your blog, dear. :-P
sunshine:
yeah, it makes a difference when you get it hot. Siew yoke too?? Ooooh I must look out for it. :-)
XLB:
I can vouch that the leanmeat is pretty good too. Also melt in your mouth!

Ah, you must enter your friend into the Miss Char Siu pageant!! Yes, it was melt-in-the-mouth indeeeeed. drool....
how in the world did u manage to take such a mouth-watering picture of char siew. I can feel the tenderness man!
You gals were fast! WMW also busy ranting about it lately.
another miss char siew..judges are having a hard time to decide on the winner
so cool, while i think the best fishballs and fishball noodles comes only from my hometown and no where else, char siu was once a popular delicacy there too, but it no more boast good char siu. even if the best charsiu shop in my hometown still exist, i m sure it will be overtaken anyway. but, but perhaps, the char siu mastery in the klang valley originates from those of my hometown?? lol.
what do u call a "male char siu slut" then? find the term and i m one..lol.
heard so much over da hakka mee at this rest but never had da chance to try it on my own :( oh, congrats on da bijou post, it was featured on da STAR yesterday :D

daphne:

jason:

kampungboycitygal:
so much char siu, so little time.
k.t.x:
the best char siu is definitely in KL, man! As for male char siu slut equivalent, a slut is a slut no matter wat gender, mah.
meiyen:
I hope u get to try it one day. There's a map, so u can't really lose your way. :-) And thanks...I didn't know it was coming out on Sunday...hubby woke me up by reading aloud from the newspapers. hehe.
bernsy:

As for the 6-0 win, we were celebrating my bday (still!), so there was cake and alcohol. Pretty good. hehe.
precious pea:

Nipples:

tummythoz:
Let me refer to to the X-rated blogs....

msiagirl
u foreigners got weird taste wan la. hahaha. but yeah, those pickled chillies are always damn good to eat, even on their own, yah. :-) My mum eats pickled green chillies with everything!
i dont deny that KL boast a lot of great food, but u must realize that it is all imported from other towns/states.
no wor, so far to me, a "slut" is only meant for WOMEN.
k.t.x:
let's put it this way. the food that's been brought in from other states have been improved, so that explains why KL has such good food. :-P Other states may have their speciality, but KL shouldn't be looked down on when it comes to good...no, great....food. :-)
As for the use of the word slut, you're asking for trouble, aren't u? I'll refrain from commenting on that one. :-)
lol on the first
thanks for the second
lol
whatever words/languages or sounds or aromas/colors or shreiks/urrgghs or whiffs you express here will have our pure gluttony support/ok so shoot as straight or as crooked as you want !
so when can we have a suckling pig nex to beat the mother of all roasts ?
The char siew looks so luscious...never had non-red-colored char siew before ler!
The hakka mee - loved the minced pork with noodles. In S'pore, I think it's called Bakchor mee...with minced pork and sometimes with a dash of black vinegar.
Wow, love your big big picture of food. Almost made me lick my computer screen :P
hahahaha my colleague saw the fishballs and said it reminded him of testical implants!!
Nice fishballs!!
Congrats, very nice post in the Star!!
Hehe..a star blogger now:D
HoHo!

Anyway u juz gav me cravings for char siu...........................
k.t.x:
emmmm...ok.
team bsg:
I got a great suckling pig picture, but maybe next time lor.
tigerfish:
I prefer the non-red version. Something about colouring....? :-P
firehorse:
I can just imagine u doing that. LOL.
teckiee:
and your colleague has undergone such an implant to be able to recognise it? :-P Say hi to ur colleague for me, k. :-)
christy:
Thanks! Star blogger? Hehe.
char siew bao:
lol...don't get me started on that. I love char siew bao...sometimes get cravings for that. At the oddest hours too!
No wonder they say there's a char siew craze happening...you and me posting on char siew though different place. I like the char siew here, I actually prefer this to Meng Kee!
wmw: yeps, me too....this is more melt-in-your-mouth as compared to Meng Kee.
aiyo..so so near my place...boo said she'll call me when she goes one day..:(. my default order would always be char siew and hakka mee.have it nearly every week..yums..if you're here weekend, call me ya? ;)
No big deal-the char siew is not as good as the one at the Sect 17 PJ wantan mee stall. The shop is dirty and the service disorganized.
This blogger was "paid" or not such a discerning food critic, I think
Anonymous (?): Do realise that one man's meat is another man's poison, and no matter how good (or bad) a restaurant is, there will always be differing opinions. Have never professed to be a "food critic", though. :-P Will check out the PJ Sect 17 wantan mee stall as I'm always on the lookout for a good char siew. Thanks for the recommendation! Oh, btw, I'm not paid to do food reviews. Which is why I end up poor every month.
