    Ngau Lam Min at Kedai Kopi Sai Lam was quite amazing. The stall has withstood the test of time since 1940. One medium size bowl is RM12.00

    This time the focus is on the Ngau Larm Mee stall (Chinese style braised beef brisket noodle) at Sai Lam, an old coffee shop at the corner of Chulia Street and Carnarvon Street.
