Food Hunt: Hou Xiang (后巷肠粉记) Restaurant, Bandar Sri Damansara, Kepong


Dear All,

Welcome back to yet another edition of Food Hunt. ME & Kimmy are again on our mission for Food Hunt and then we are back again this time. We have visited Bandar Sri Damansara to try out one of the famous Chee Cheong Fun in town. Recently it just opened one branch at Taman Sea in Petaling Jaya. We reached the restaurant at about 2.00pm and the restaurant is not crowded at this hour but also with some tables occupied. Once we sat down, we then take a look at the menu and this is what we've ordered:

1.) Curry Chee Cheong Fun (RM5.20)
2.) KL Style Salty Chee Cheong Fun (RM4.20)
3.) Beancurd Roll (RM3.70)
4.) Fried Shui Kao (2 Pcs) (RM3.20)
5.) Round Fish Cake (RM3.20)
6.) Longan Ice (RM5.30)
7.) Chinese Tea (Cold) (RM1.20)


Look at the items that we've ordered it looks like a lot but eventually it's just nice for 2 persons only. The portion overall it's not huge and small. If you are a big eater, the portion is not enough for you and you need to order more and maybe you'll pay more too and it's not cheap. It does take quite a long time for the food to arrive although the restaurant is not packed and the service is pretty slow. After we waited about 10 minutes, the Curry Chee Cheong Fun arrived first. It's delicious and tasty with rich curry taste. The noodle is fresh as it's made hot. The KL Style Salty Chee Cheong Fun is also nice and it's pretty salty too but the taste is great. The portion is really small and really stingy.

Besides they selling their signature Chee Cheong Fun, they also see Yong Tau Foo as well as normal snacks / cakes as well. We've ordered the Beancurd Roll, Fried Shui Kao and Round Fish Cake. Frankly, the snacks are pretty normal and nothing big to shout about. One thing I must say it's cooked fresh and so it's served hot. The portion is average and not huge either. The drinks meanwhile is pretty expensive and the portion is average (slightly larger than normal size). The Longan Ice is the normal tin can drink and it charges us about RM5.30.

Overall, in my opinion that the food is just so-so except the Chee Cheong Fun which I really like it very much. If you are here, remember to try out their signature Chee Cheong Fun and I believe that you will enjoy the taste. The price is very expensive and not worth the money to be frank based on the portion they served. A big eater like me would definitely say expensive as the portion is not enough but luckily the snacks would help me a bit. Enjoy! MY RATING: 3/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5
