RESTORAN 126 Bittergourd Noodle 

苦瓜面汤

There are many restaurants in Klang Valley that serve a great variety of noodles dishes, but it's rare to find a restaurant that focuses on recreating the familiar, comforting tastes of home-cooked meals. One such place is at Restoran 126 Bittergourd Noodle in Taman Bukit Mayang Emas, Petaling Jaya.

At Restoran 126 Bittergourd Noodle, the menu is based on recipes that owner Ah Him perfected from his culinary experience from the cooking of great-tasting soup noodles for the past 6 years in the food business. 

Mouth-Watering Dishes ~ Restoran 126 

Humble beginnings from a hawker stall selling only the famous bitter gourd noodles, he went on by leaps and bounds to operating from his own restaurant for almost 6 years now. He has expanded his menu selection to 5 varieties of soup noodles that include the famous Bitter gourd noodle to Seaweed tofu noodle, Herbal soup noodle, Pepper soup noodle and Curry noodle too.

Apart from the noodles dishes, you can choose to have rice or even porridge from their menu which offers mouth-watering rice dishes such as Curry Pork Ribs rice, Curry Chicken rice, Mah Poh Tau Fu Rice, Minced Pork Mushroom Rice, and Pork Chop rice that comes with 4 choices of topping sauce. 

Signature Drink ~ Premium Coffee

Oh yes, before I forget... you must try their coffee while dining here. According to Ah Him, an avid coffee drinker himself, he stressed a lot on serving  a good cup of quality coffee made from premium beans priced nothing less than RM50/kg.   

Hot Premium Coffee RM 2.70

Iced Premium Coffee RM 3.20

Deluxe Curry Laksa
RM 10

The Deluxe Curry Laksa is their newest addition to the menu. The aromatic curry laksa noodles are created using authentic Baba Nyonya recipe, with its curry paste all made from scratch. The curry laksa tasted rich and creamy with the use of coconut milk and is served loaded with fair portion of cockles, roast pork, Char Siew (BBQ meat), pork skin (Chee pei), meat balls, fish ball, curry chicken, long beans and fried Fu Chuk (Beancurd skin) pieces. 

The taste of the curry is not overwhelming and goes well with the yellow noodles. Ah Him also makes sure that he picks the right type of yellow noodles without the strong hint of Kan shui (alkaline) to make sure it goes well with his curry broth. and does not hinder the taste or flavour of the dish.

Close Shot Of The Juicy Fresh Cockles

The curry broth's consistency is smooth and rich in taste. The big plump and juicy cockles are bought fresh daily from the wet market as Ah Him shops for it personally and ensure that he gets the freshest cockles and will not settle for anything less. 

They are available daily from 10:30am onwards with a limited portion, while stock last. Therefore, come early for a taste of the Super Bowl of Curry Laksa to satisfy your craving.
