Comforting Fish Head Noodles For Birthday Lunch! 🐟🍜
.
I've seen many have patronised this famous shop - Woo Pin Fish Head Noodles on social media over the years but didn't have the chance to try it yet. Finally got to step into this place 2 months ago!
.
.
It was a long queue due to lunch peak hours.
.
.
Here's me and @iamjadeline patiently waiting in line. But thank God, we only waited for 15 minutes. Not too bad. :)
.
.
45 Kamunting, is part of the restaurant's name as they have multiple outlets in Klang valley. This also indicated their address - No 45, Jalan Kamunting.
.
.
The vibe of the place is more of an old-school kampung style. It looks a little like my grandfather's house, which gives me a sense of familiarity. 😄

And.... that's me busy being a shutter bug. 🐞😛

Quite affordable for a meal in KL I think. Average RM13.50 (USD 2.8+) per bowl of fish head noodles.
.
.
Meanwhile, drinks are averagely around RM4-6 (USD 1-1.50).

My friend ordered fried fish skin as one of the side dishes. So huge and crisply-ly good! What a yummy starter!
.
.
Teh Tarik, Honey Lemon and Kopi as our drinks.

A picture before the main meal arrives. :)

The main meal of the day - Fried Fish Head Noodles! This is a hearty combination of slurpy milky broth derived from evaporated milk, sliced tomatoes, preserved vegetables, spring onions, and fried fish head chunks.
.
.
We had fried fish cake as another side dish to accompany with the noodles too!
.
.
There was this lady who was busy baking beside us while we were eating our noodles. IT SMELLS SO HEAVENLY GOOD!
.
.
Turns out, it was a tray of egg tarts! Can't resist but to take away a few boxes of egg tarts for our family. Apparently, this place is also famous for egg tarts!
.
.
Look at the shiny burnt-surface egg tarts! 😋
.
.
A needed wefie with @iamjadeline and her husband to keep as a memory, cause meet-up like this is rare! :)
.
Fish head noodles are one of my favourite noodle soup dishes.
The noodles here were good, but if they added more Shao Xing wine, it will be superbbb! Hahaha, just personal preference. The chilli was surprisingly good too. It is spicy, sweet and sour with the addition of a great ingredient - the belacan (shrimp paste), which makes it soooooo addictive!
Might revisit this place in the future again!

It was a pleasure to meet @iamjadeline and her husband for my belated birthday lunch 2 months ago.
Both of them are my mentor-like close friends/big sister & brother in the church who have kept me in mind and prayers all these years.
It was a very rare opportunity to meet both of them at the same time, due to their childcare responsibilities. It must have been not easy for the couple to coordinate the timing too. So I appreciate the meet-up a lot!
Thank you for making the time to meet me. Grateful for the short and casual catch-up. Thank you for the belated birthday treat too! ❤
@iamjadeline Cheers to our long-awaited first meal together! More to come! 😊🥂
