Pan Mee @ Hou Mei Yuen, Bukit Jambul

This Pan Mee place is famous among the industrial area working people, as well as locals staying within Bayan Lepas. We visit there on and off too actually.. I’ve been patronizing this place since I was in college…

Here, they offer both soup and dry version of pan mee with choice of the thin or flat noodles… previously they have the pieces type as well.

Besides pan mee, you can opt for sides, like choices of dim sums, “chee cheong fun”, “loh mai kai'”, otak otak and rojak too… there’s also an uncle on a bike selling “muar chee” with hokkien songs playing on this little player…

Drinks are usually loh han kuo, the staffs will carry them in tray, table to table.. and many people adore the chili.. one of my colleagues will have her noodles with scoops of the chili sauce.. Each noodle serving comes with a small bowl of fish ball soup.. So how to make you order is by filling in the order sheet with table number, and the size and quantity before passing it to the kitchen staffs.. the small size is actually a very small portion, so usually, many will order the large size.. some will even order XL.. not in the order sheet.. you indicate it yourselves…

This is the dry version, flat pan mee…coeated with soy sauce and  topped with deep fried ikan bilis (anchovies), minced meat, and sliced black fungus… comes with a small bowl of fish ball soup and some vegetable… the fish balls are smooth, chewy and  yummy…

Soup version with thin pan mee, also topped with the same ingredients and fish balls…

See what I mean with small size.. this one is suitable for kids :D or the ones who want to savour a little bit of this and some of the sides available..

The seats are under a big tree, so most of it are shaded areas… if it rains, they also have indoor seating which is more cramped and dark….

Hou Mei Yuen is located behind the Malvest building, among the low cost flats…
