We had the signature tok tok noodles dry, chicken feet, dumplings in soup and some pastries (as seen in my pic). The tok tok noodles were bouncy with good chewy texture and did not have any scent of alkaline taste. The sauce was aromatic without overly drenching your noodles in it. A balanced taste but I'd suggest to add pork lard to enhance the flavours. The char siew tasted just okay to me but the wan tans were worth trying (hidden underneath the noodles). The meat filling was well seasoned and had the right bounce to every bite. The sambal paste also goes along well with your bowl of noodles if you love some shrimpy spiciness. Next, the chicken feet was also a commendable dish. You can expect a thick and rich aromatic gravy with gelatinous soft chicken feet. The sui kow or dumplings were worth mentioning as well. Similar to the wan tans but with added crunch in the meat fillings. The pastries were alright in my opinion and the siew pow was my favourite among all. The coffee here is what you would expect from a typical kopitiam of such food establishment. Moving on the minus points, the serving time for the noodles can be improved as it took quite awhile for our noodles to be served. As for the parking, do expect some challenge in finding one especially...

Read moreWe walked into this restaurant at 7:15pm as Tek Sen Restaurant in Lebuh Carnavon has long queue. We were hungry after checking into the hotel and entered this eatery with no expectation as we were the last customer.
Once the food arrived, we ate the Signature Dry Noodle and the marinated fried chicken wings. Wow that was the best wanton noodles I had ever eaten. So springy and the gravy was so flavourful. Even the sambal has grinded shrimps and sliced chili has some rice wine to it. It was another level taste
The fried chicken wings tasted like Inci Kabin, presumably were marinated in belacan and deep fried to perfection. Crispy and flavourful.
Upon paying at the counter, we just realised we were eating in a Michelin Star restaurant. What a find! Deserved earned it as the simple dishes were simply superb. Best of all, the prices in the menu were quite cheap in an air cond environment. Better value for money than eating in hot humid hawker stalls. Imagine a plate of signature noodles cost below RM10. Better than eating wanton noodles in those well known...
