Wheat noodles tossed dry with minced beef sauce, or served in a deep beef broth with tripe, tendon and hand-made beef balls. A Chinatown speciality in Kuala Lumpur, with stalls dating from the 1940s and 1950s.
Beef noodles in Kuala Lumpur are a Hakka and Cantonese hawker tradition concentrated in the streets of Chinatown. Cooks simmer brisket, tripe and tendon for hours, pound beef into springy balls, and serve the noodles two ways: in the broth, or dry with a savoury minced beef gravy and the soup on the side. Soong Kee on Jalan Tun H S Lee has made its dry minced beef noodles and hand-rolled beef balls since 1945, now in its second generation, and Lai Foong on the same road has simmered its beef soup since 1956. Order dry with the soup on the side to taste both.
