So it was a Saturday and we decided to try out the famous Ulu Yam Loh Mee shop at Setia Alam. I have been recommended to come to this place ever since my bf first ate here. He shared that the loh mee is very delicious here and he appreciated the fact that the loh mee tasted that it has less "kan sui" (cantonese term for boric acid). So finally I have the opportunity to try it myself on this one fine saturday!
No photo of the facade, this is just another humble-looking restaurant but do not be fooled by its exterior. The mee served here is awesome!
These were what we ordered:
 |
1. Loh Mee in a huge bowl
2. Hokkien Mee
3. Spring rolls |
The Loh mee was very very good! The chef by default had added vinegar to the gravy itself, but if you need more to add to your tastebuds you can always add from the vinegar the provide on the table. After tasting one scoop, it was like no other loh mee I have tasted and personally I think it would be because they actually made the loh mee themselves and they really never added much boric acid to make the mee super chewy, unlike other noodle shops! Gravy-wise, it was thick and consistent, really flavousome! Nice nice.. must try!
The hokkien mee was good as well since they used the same mee :)
 |
| 4. Thai coconut water :D |
We ordered a coconut water drink to be shared. RM 5.50.. not expensive and worth it to quench your midday thirst!
 |
| 5. Snake beans (Awesome!) |
The snake beans tasted really nice mostly because of the way it was stir fried. Has that very great "wok" taste enhanced by the chilli and deep fried pork that comes together in the same dish. A must try too!

| Spring roll.. so-so only |

| Hokkien mee as tasty! |
This restaurant also serves good claypot yam noodle (or so I heard) but we did not have "enough stomachs" to down more noodles. Will come back for that the next time.
Price-wise.. totally reasonable. I cannot remember exactly but it came up to RM10 per person so total bill that day was about RM 22 or so.
