马来曼煎粿 Apam Balik @ Apam Balik Food Truck KL Wisma Central

26.07.2017 Snack
@ Apam Balik Food Truck KL Wisma Central (click to Google Map)
147, Jalan Ampang, 50450 Kuala Lumpur 

马来曼煎粿 Apam Balik 3pcs $2 
Thoughts: In front of Wisma Central currently stationed 2 food truck; one food truck is selling Chicken Rice (Ayam Kunyit), and another is selling Apam Balik (Malay dessert or it is it Chinese, it is Malaysian anyway)! Apam Balik is a traditional Malaysian crispy pancake or crepe with roasted peanut and sugar crumb stuffing. Some vendors will create variants out of the traditional version by putting additional flavoring such as corns, red beans, cheese etc for additional price.  
$2 for 3pcs for the traditional version here from the food truck, it came with very thin crust with a generous amount of nuts as well as a little bit of corn in the middle, definitely a long time favorite among Malaysians. I have not tasted it for awhile, this one here is very nice.
Wisma Central is just a short less than 1 minute walk from KLCC; it is an old building (seriously quite run down) but in day time is a very busy place, it has Malay, Indian, Mamak, and Chinese Eateries at the Ground Floor. I think at least 10-15 of them just in Ground Floor alone. Food here is much affordable compared to KLCC especially a favorite for office workers nearby. Wisma MCA, Ampang Park, and Wisma Central are some of the old remaining structures still standing in Jalan Ampang. 
Review: 5 / 5
Opening hours: (not sure)

臭豆腐 Stinky Tofu @ KL OUG Night Market

16.02.2017 Snack
@ KL OUG Night Market
Taman OUG, 58200 Kuala Lumpur
臭豆腐 Stinky Tofu $8
Thoughts: my first stinky tofu was in Beijing (王府井 Wang Fu Jiang), that was 10 years ago in 2007 on assignment teaching for SAP Beijing. Well, my first impression is it was too stinky but there is a certain smell to it and certainly it is an acquired taste perhaps not everyone will like it. The one at OUG was really very mild and less stickiness, not much smell of stinkiness! After so many years since tasting it on Beijing, I long to try it again, but did not get any surprises in the exotic taste I was looking for.

爪哇面 Mee Jawa @ OUG Night Market

13.01.2017 Before Dinner
OUG Night Market
Taman OUG, 58200 Kuala Lumpur
爪哇面 Mee Jawa $5.50 
Thoughts: First of all, this place is packed with street food. And there are all if not 99% Chinese! I can see many new things I could be trying out here. I tried some small snacks like Apam but ended up with a bigger meal at a Mee Jawa stall. It's not really vegetarian as I saw one medium sized fried prawn! But if you a thing about cleanliness, this is not the place for you. Personally, unless it is really disgustingly dirty, otherwise I have got used to it lately. 
After I finish the Mee Jawa, I made a final round at the night market and saw "Stinky Tofu" 臭豆腐, if there wasn't a long queue, I would have bought some. Definitely next time for the Stinky Tofu! 
OUG is like a half way point from KL to Subang, stopping by here in the evening for a quick snack bite is a good idea before returning home, as I have already marked down the things I will be trying in the next visits, one by one I will be trying them!
