Sang Har Mee, Street Food, Non-Halal
In Kuala Lumpur’s food scene, Sang Har Mee (freshwater prawn noodles) has always been one of those celebratory dishes — often reserved for special occasions or shared family meals. At Yong Hua Kopitiam in Taman United, they’ve added their own twist. Instead of the usual flat tangle of noodles, the Sang Har Mee arrives with its golden strands dramatically arranged upright, a “standing noodle” presentation that immediately grabs attention. It’s part theatre, part tradition — a way of signalling that they take pride in offering something memorable.

The noodles themselves were indeed enjoyable. Initially crisp, they gradually softened as the eggy gravy seeped through, creating that comforting contrast of crunch and slurp. The sauce had a nice body to it, carrying the sweetness of prawn shells balanced with the savouriness of stir-fried aromatics.

The prawns, however, were less successful. Overcooked to the point of chewiness, they lacked the delicate, natural sweetness that makes Sang Har Mee shine. It’s a pity, because in a dish that literally bears their name (“sang har” meaning freshwater prawn), the crustaceans should be the star.
Still, at RM38 for two, it is decently priced. The noodles and gravy carry the weight, and the presentation ensures it’s one of those meals people will talk about long after. It may not be the city’s best Sang Har Mee, but it certainly adds to KL’s food options.
