Holiao Noodles

Holiao Noodles @ Pandan Indah, Kuala Lumpur as at 04/09/2023

Went to this little spot here in Pandan Indah, we noticed the new shop opening around the area but we never went to try it until recently, since my mom saw this on her Facebook page and dragged us all to go with her. At first I thought this was a Japanese Ramen shop with it’s renovations and shop outlook but when I entered the shop, it wasn’t a ramen shop at all. It sells Traditional Chinese Hakka Noodles. The shop was going for a rustic décor but it complements the whole vibe so I don’t mind.

Here’s are some things on the menu. There’s the traditional Hakka Noodles with different combinations that you can ordered with : fish balls, pork balls, fish skins/pork wantons, or pork tendons. The prices were consider cheap for me as well. Where would you mind shops that still have MYR 9 for one bowl of noodles (I am making comparison with other cafes or similar shops not the kopitiam shops).

I really like the taste of the noodles, it looked simply but the taste was incredible. Adding a little of the shao xing wine into it, give it a more elaborate taste (but to get that you have to pay extra ya). However I think it was worth the extra add-on since it tasted great!

Although the noodles were fantastic, the pork tendons and the fish skin wantons were a little let down though, it’s not what I had in mind (or it didn’t taste better than the ones I had before in Pudu so It was quite meh for me). However, their Fish Maw Soup was great, and complementing that with their chili oil pork wantons it was superb. By the way, their chili oil is their own homemade recipe (which I really like).
