Fat One Kopitiam — Restaurant in Subang Jaya

Very Chinese feel coffee shop using marble tables and chairs. Clean but very stuffy, even in the early morning (0700). Ventilation is poor!

Ordered :-

1. Lala noodle @ RM10 - clams are fresh and serving is generous too. Broth is very aromatic with Chinese wine. Same stall offering fish head/paste noodle which is very popular and sells out fast!
2. YTF and Chee Cheong Fun @ RM7 - (1x deep fried spring roll, fu chok, aubergine and small chee cheong fun) deep fried stuffs are crispy and nice. ccf is normal and so was the curry.
3. Sui Gao tau chim noodle @ RM6 - sui gao is tasty and well sized. broth is good and no sign of msg. Dipping sauce is spicy.
4. Teh si @ RM2.50 - so so

1. Lala meehoon with milk @ RM12/s - fresh lalas and the broth is savory. Price up!
2. Fish fillet soup @ RM12/s - fresh deep fried fish fillets and the broth is very aromatic from the Chinese cooking wine. Price up!
3. Poached chicken d/stick with siew yoke rice @ RM9.50 - silky smooth poached d/s. the siew yoke is ok only.
4. Roast chicken d/stick with siew yoke rice @ RM9.50 - ordered the poached d/s but sent the roast instead. willing to change for me but i tot its needless for the trouble. the poached version is definitely better than the roast. it was good nonetheless.
5. Wat tan yee mee @ RM7 - very nice.very feeling too!
6. Fried tang hoon @ RM7 - very nice with lotsa wok-hei and best of all, not oily while maintaining the tang hoon is strands instead of clumps! Old aunty (CKT last stall) really got kung fu! ;)
7. Wanton noodle @ RM7/7.50? - char siew is good and so is the al dente noodle. wantons are ok too! Nice food. nice operator and sells out really fast!

always packed on weekends. getting a table is a challenge and you may find some families "chop" tables and chairs when they don't have the numbers to do so!!...

We have been here a few times, could have been more if not for the distance and timing. We're here only on Sundays, it's timing, family (rather families) time, normally, 12 of us.

This was one place where we thought practically every stall served above average food, quality as well as taste wise.

The fish head noodle stall served tasty fish head as well as la-la noodle. Fish head seemed to sell out very early. I'd say this should be the anchor stall for this eatery, if there's such a thing.

Fried Kuey Teow was good enough, not soggy or too oily, quite tasty.

Zha Jiang Mian (noodles served with fried bean sauce) would be just about average. Jiao Zi (dumpling) served by the same stall operator would be slightly better. This stall was operated by a China lady.

Pork noodles with bitter gourd was quite delicious. Definitely worth a try.

Char Siu Wonton noodles deserved a 3-star rating.

Tea and Iced Coffee (wife's favourite) weren't bad either. Toasted bread with coconut jam and yes, margarine, was not really acceptable. They were really skimpy on the coconut jam. I needed to dip my toast into my tea to finish it. It tasted almost like "roti kosong" or plain toast.

Prices were in the same range as other similar type of eateries.

Parking may pose a bit of a challenge on Sunday morning, but then, not really that difficult.

This eatery would be one of the better ones. Definitely...

This place was apparently used to be called Fat One Char Chan Teng and is now called BossKu Kaw Kaw since they renovated and the dining environment has greatly improved from what I hear. The owners need to hurry up and update their Google Maps profile or people won't be able to discover this business!

I'm not a fan of the weird name of the place but hey they've got a a really nice lei cha (literally it's "thunder/lightning tea" but not exactly related to the weather or tea! ) stall here! Name of the lei cha stall is called Leng Chai Hor Por Lei Cha.

Lei cha in general is a little hard to find around town, and good ones are even rarer. This lei cha had a good portion size, and I loved the full-bodied richness of the broth/soup - which is really what separates good lei cha from the bad. Not so much the rice but a nice, strong broth is key and the guy that runs the lei cha stall definitely understood the assignment. Would recommend! I can't speak for the other food stalls as I didn't get a chance to try them this time around. But I do like the different style of this restaurant: it's brightly lit, lots of sunlight, airy and I like how the individual stalls are designed and positioned in a unique way compared to the traditional/typical kopitiam/corner shops with the metallic booths, so I must say, the renovation must have been worth it...
