Uncle M and family loves the hokkien mee here. We were in the vicinity the other day, and since it was dinner time, we dropped by for a quick meal. Photo quality's a bit dodgy as photos were taken using a handphone.
Hokkien mee.
Hokkien mihun.The hokkien mee and hokkien mihun were both teeming with pork lard fritters, which made them very fragrant. I had my share with splashings of chilli sauce, and picked out all the pork lard fritters :D. Hubby-to-be, on the other hand, finished every last morsel of his.

We would give the hokkien mee a 3-bam rating.
A bowl of yau char kwai (deep fried Chinese cruellers) to dip in the soup, RM1.00.
Lots of rice, garlic and chillies to complement the soupy bak kut teh.
We ordered a dish of green vegetables. The first time it came, it was sprinkled with lots of fried garlic and oil. And in the midst of all the garlic, we spotted a dead fly. Naturally, we sent it back. A replacement came, and as you can see in the above picture, no more fried garlic. I suppose they must have thrown away the garlic oil mix that they usually use for making this dish. We ever so cautiously ate the new plate of vegetables. Toward the end of our meal, we saw this...........
Spotted : Kitty grooming self in Pasar Borong Selangor (Selangor Wholesale Market).
Paparazzi! A cat can't even have some privacy!
The seafood section was teeming with fish, all the common ones and some not-so-common ones too!
Hubby-to-be ordered nasi lemak (RM6.50) for which this place is famous. The beef rendang was very piquant - thick, rich and tender. The sambal was sweetish and came in a generous helping.
I opted for western and ordered grilled chicken chop (RM10.50). A big slab of succulent boneless chicken leg grilled to perfection arrived. The edges were just slightly burnt for that smoky taste. The gravy was reminiscent of teriyaki sauce with a hint of worchestershire sauce. Really good!
This restaurant is at the second block of flats near the Shell petrol station in Section 17. It is a corner shoplot on the ground floor of the flats.
The vegetable dish was sweet potato leaves fried with sambal belacan (RM8.00). This dish was crunchy and fresh, though I would have preferred it spicier. 
Mankie was a heap of guilt after the incident. Too embarrased to even look at mommy.
I didn't do it, nobody saw me doing it, you can't prove anything!
All we had to do was add meat, whole garlic bulbs, vegetables and water for a hearty Bak Kut Teh meal.
And last night, we had baked chicken marinated with blended "stuff" (lemongrass, ginger, onions, chillies, garlic, turmeric, lime, sugar, sesame oil, Shiaoxing wine, fish sauce, santan), with sides of mashed potatoes and stirfried garlic french beans.
We walked almost the entire floor and finally saw an outlet that really piqued our interest. There were long queues in front of Thye Hong (always a good sign!).
Upon closer examination, we saw this man in a glass "cubicle" adjacent to the main counter, busy frying eggs and huge, luscious-looking oysters! How could we resist?!
A better deal would be the fried kueh kak (carrot cake) at RM6.50. The carrot cake was fried with slightly-burnt edges, and the tastyness of the soya sauce and other ingredients penetrated into the carrot cake itself. It came served with a big helping of eggs.
