Roaming: Air Panas Market, Setapak

Today I roamed to the chinese food court in Air Panas (across the road from the Air Panas Market, Setapak). Its a sheltered food court, but its quite hot due to the zinc roofing.

Dish: Dry Sauce Pan Mee 
Pan mee cooked and served with black sauce, anchovies, black mushrooms, pork slices, and some green vegetables.



Dry Black Sauce Pan Mee served with pork slices, anchovies and black mushrooms
Price: MYR5.30

Taste: Overall, the dish delivers as a pan mee dish but the taste is rather plain, nothing special. The mee was homemade (on the spot) and mushrooms tasted good and fresh. The pork slices tasted slightly sweet, not to my liking. A downside is that the green vegetables aren't very fresh and the fried anchovies prepared are too hard. Rating: 5/10

Value: the dish was an alright serving for lunch, you wont be too full but leaves you full enough to carry out daily activities. For me the price is a bit high for the ammount of meat provided, I feel MYR5 would have been better, but priced at MYR5.30 is not too bad. Rating: 4/10


Overall Rating: 4.5/10

Dish: Air Batu Campur (ABC)
The first thing you would notice is that it overflows with ingredients such as red bean, cincau, cendol, red jelly, nata, and corn topped with brown sugar syrup.
Overflow of red beans and corn 
Price: MYR3.70

Taste: The first thing I can say is that the dish looked creamier than it tasted. The texture was alright, it was creamy on top thanks to condensed milk and a little santan but sadly, the texture was top heavy as it lightened and became more "watery" toward the bottom. The ingredients used were fresh which is a good thing, you could taste the softness in the red beans and cendol. The top was very tasty but it gets bland and watery toward the bottom. Rating: 6/10

Value: The portion was big, it took 3 people to finish one bowl. The dish was also rich in ingredients as I mentioned. Rating: 8/10

Overall Rating: 7/10

Till next time, zoom zoom :D
