Dry Kway Teow with dark soy sauce - RM4.00


Its Kway Teow with dark soy sauce is a famous main dish here and it normally will be eaten with the abalone soup. It is a good combination. The Kway Teow used the dark soy sauce match with the lard and onion oil to increase its fragrance. Basically I will add its homemade “sambal” to churn it and it will be more spicy and tasty if you want to do so. Good!
