Besides the famous tom yum or tom yam porridge and noodles just besides the Kwang Hwa School at Raja Uda, there is another restaurant selling exactly the same thing which is almost as famous as the one I went previously. Well, if you happen to pass by Raja Uda and the tom yum shop besides the Kwang Hwa happen to be close for business, well, it's alright as Restoran Joo Heng which is also along the road, is selling the same thing, almost as good as well.
I cannot seems to find the name of the restaurant using my Garmin, so, we decided to set the destination at Kwang Hwa school and then continue along the main road until we see the Restoran Joo Heng sign board. We are also lucky that our food hunting plan is actually to try out the tom yum here as the one next to the Kwang Hwa school is closed.
It was already about nine at night, but we can already see the crowd awaiting for their tom yum outside of the restaurant and there was already another long queue of customers choosing their dishes to be served together with their tom yum.
We are actually lucky that there is still another table inside the shop, so we sit indoor rather than outdoor and I went to pick up my dishes. I've some prawns, fish balls and meat balls and some abalone slices and after that my friend chose hers and within 10 minutes or so, we are served with our bowl of tom yum noodles. It's a surprise that our bowl of tom yum noodles can be served so fast considering the fact that there was already a long queue before us.
The tom yum soup actually taste slightly more sour compares to the other shop, and if one notice from the pictures, there is no vegetables, which actually surprise me. I have always thought tom yum should have some kaffir lime leaves or maybe some mentha leaves, celery and stuff like that, but this one come without those. Overall, I would not say it is bad. It is just that it comes without those vegetables or leaves, which makes me wondering whether we are the one who did not pick up those, or just the style of the tom yum in this shop.
