Chiefeater Jotaro Zen found the soup stock of the lala noodles at Lai Foong Noodles Uptown to be very good


Char Kuey Teow, Street Food
The Penang Fried Kuey Teow from Big Family Restaurant SS15 was a pleasant surprise. Priced at RM10, it came as a generous serving.

The plate arrived glistening, with the scent of soy and wok hei wafting through the air. And they prepped the cockles the way I asked it, raw.

For a plate fried by a foreigner, this was a solid plate of CKT. The wok hei was unmistakable — smoky, slightly charred edges on the noodles, and enough spice to keep things interesting.

What it missed were those small but mighty touches — the banana leaf base and crispy lard bits — that could’ve pushed it from good to great. Still, it was satisfying and well worth the price for the portion size and flavour balance.
Score: 8.0/10
Big Family’s CKT earns Flavour (8.2) for its wok hei and freshness, Value (8.5) for portion size, and Experience (7.5) for consistency and speed. It’s a no-fuss, well-executed hawker classic that captures Penang essence in the heart of SS15 — minus the lard, but still full of flavour.
