I visited Joo Hooi Cafe with an old friend. I ordered two plates of char koay teow with duck egg. We were among the first customers that day, so we had to wait about 10 minutes for our order. This is how it looks like.
Joo Hooi Cafe char koay teow (25 June 2015)
I found the char koay teow to be a bit whitish (not spicy enough). I did not specify that I want it spicy or non spicy. I was afraid that asking it to be spicy may result in it being too spicy. The char koay teow cost RM6.50, yet the portion is rather small.
After eating it, I was still hungry, and so I ordered the laksa. The stall is being manned by an Indian guy. How surprising. Perhaps he was employed by the owner to sell the laksa. My small bowl of laksa cost RM4.50. Wow, to me that too is very expensive and rather watery. I learn that this is a very popular laksa stall, but as far as I'm concerned, the fame exceeds the quality.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
