Mee Udang Revelation


I believe everybody knows Mee Udang Penang or Mee Udang Sg 2 to be specific. Ok.. Let me show you the pictures (taken by me, myself.. so, it’s real… no super-impose what so ever). Terliur tak?... The close-up picture gelaplah pulak. Tapi, ada PC yg boleh view cantik kut. The expensive one.

Back to the mee udang story.. After one of our friends visited Penang and had mee udang as a treat, mee udang become more famos. The reviews and the pictures make Penang as one of the "must visit" destination. Woi! korang datang Penang just for mee udang ker? Sedih tau!!..

My officemates often have mee udang for lunch but they go to Juru. It's nearer, besides that, we don't know mee udang Sg 2 opens during lunch time or not. Hmmm.. kenapalah tak de initiative nak bertanya nih. The different between Juru's Mee udang and Sg 2's are the udangs /prawns and the kuah/gravy. Hehehe.. of course all mee/ noodles taste the same. Sg 2's udangs are bigger and tastier.. may be fresher. The gravy… I think Sg 2's has more tomato taste (I love tomatoes) and Juru's has the MSG taste (alamak! kena saman lak nanti). Apa apa pun, come to Penang and we definitely bring you there.

Oh! lupa lak.. Sg 2 has 2 restaurants, the original one (the one that Jalan Jalan Cari Makan visited) and the other one with the attractive lighting effect. I think the original one taste better although it doesn't serve (with money paid) Ketam/ crabs, fresh fish, rice and etc. Hello!! It's original; it has to maintain the uniqueness.
