Izakaya Unatoto Bến Thành Nishin Kazunoko
Japanese
Izakaya Unatoto Bến Thành is known for unagi, but it was the Nishin Kazunoko, cold soba and sour plum Sapporo that we enjoyed most


Beef Noodles, Street Food, Non-Halal
Chiefeater IanC on one of his trips into Kuala Lumpur makes a beeline for Sin Kiew Yee Shin Kee Beef Noodles. The sentences in quotes are his words.
Despite a half hour queue, he says “One of the best Hakka beef noodles I’ve ever tasted.”
“They have dry and soupy noodles option. I went for the hor fun + noodle mix with beef & ball. The dry noodles tasted better because of the finely minced meat that came with it.”

“The key ingredient which is unique is the finely minced meat that comes with the noodles, whether soupy or dry. But the flavour of the minced meat is brought out more in the dry version (i tried both soupy and dry) and when mixed with the noodles, is a superb hakka version of smooth beef zhajiangmian (炸酱面) and not over salty, just right. The beef and ball mix includes tripe, beef slices and beef balls – and of course the finely minced beef. One will understand why the long queue”
Additional information
2 elderly Hakka ladies do the cooking.
I certainly hope there’s a succession plan, otherwise we might miss out on another local gem.
