UPDATE: Meng Kee @ Tengkat Tung Shun has been reallocated to Jalan Alor (next to Hotel Nova).
For those staying around Subang and Shah Alam, you can always get your char siu fix at the branch in Glenmarie without beating the traffic into the city.
Having received much press coverage; Meng Kee is still a no frills and humble little eating establishment with minimal renovation. Good food matters right?
Meng Kee’s oily rice is flavorful but I find it rather wet and lumpy.
Unlike some char-siu-like impostor with artificial coloring, Meng Kee’s char siu is gleaming in a deep mahogany color. Apart from that, their char siu is the sweeter version with a thick caramelized crust. Take a bite of the succulent and tender meat and you are in heaven!
However, I still think that Meng Kee’s char siu could not rival Famous Seremban Favourite’s char siu. FSF’s version is less sweet, more tender and juicier. Hmmm let’s just say that Meng Kee’s char siu is rated as the second best in my list!
The steam chicken was decent, but nothing spectacular though.
Innards (liver) Sausages are my perennial favorite but it is such a rare sight at “siu mei” joints nowadays. My lunch buddies expressed their shock and disgust over the sausages but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
Never feed an Ipoh girl with such skinny taugehs. Politely, I shoved it away and continue tucking into my char siu and liver sausages.
Generally, Meng Kee serves top notch char siu with pretty decent “side dishes”. A simple meal at Meng Kee is light on the pocket too; we paid about RM12 per person for a hearty meal over here. Do remember to avoid the lunch-time crowd if you intend to drop by.

This area is the favourite for lunch time crowd in Glenmarie… how do i know? Coz i used to walk within walking distance 🙂 if you pay attention… you will see Thule signboard nearby.
Have you tried the char siew from Kopitiam SFS (747)??? Apparently they are good too… since you go to nearby Famous Seremban Favourites in Aman Suria!
For Innard Sausages… nothing beats my favourite stall in Jalan Imbi which sell pork ball noodle (sam kan chong)!
Yes, FSF is still tops in my list!
I have yet to MK and FSF. Would be wonderful trip to Glenmarie. My personal favourite is at KLIA Downtown.
this is one of the best char siew .
no thanks to wmw (hehe) i am addicted to FSF version. meng kee’s cannot lah …
had the one in tengkat tong shin back then.
LOL to that statement on scrawny tauge. how true.
Them sausages sure look good but it’s not something I’ll have very often… 🙂
char xiiiuuuuuuuu…!
true, taugeh in KL super skinny, i wont want to have KL taugeh anymore.
but please feed me with more Ipoh taugeh, kind of addicted to the short and fat taugeh!
Innards (liver) Sausages !!!
Wahh.havent seen them in KL before! Wonder if they serve this at the Tong Shin branch?
Hmm…maybe I went on a bad day.. but FSF’s didnt impress me.. must try again..

kenny: i know what u mean, sinful n unhealthy
ivy: u can visit my parents anytime, so sook liao
rebecca: reli? fsf is the best! ask for bun fei sao ;p
This Char Siu here is grossly overpriced. Ever noticed when you order just the char siu in small portions (for 2 people) they’d force you to order their chicken or siu cheong to balance it out.
The sad thing is whilst their Char Siu is good but the rest of the items in the menu taste like
shit. Frankly it’s not worth it.
Innards Sausages – yucks!
