Jiang Xi Xiao Chao Stir Fried Lunch

Post by Chiefeater VK

Lunch at Jiang Xi Xiao Chao in SS15. This is a restaurant that’s easy to miss because it’s located above ground.

Step in to a utilitarian space. No frills, just focus on the food.

The Stir-Fried Rice Noodles with Pork was good and tasty, outshining the Chicken Fried Rice.

The rice itself felt like it lacked a little something, so I decided to order the Stir-Fried Beef to accompany it. That turned out to be a great move—the beef acted as a perfect, savoury complement to the rice.

One thing to note for locals: the “spicy” option here is mild compared to what we are used to. If you already have a typical Malaysian tolerance for heat, I’d suggest going ahead and ordering the spicy level to fully experience the Jiangxi profile.
