Tuck Kee In Theatre Street, Ipoh

Mention Tuck Kee and many will know that it is famous for its fried noodles and some side dishes... The original shop is along the same row as Loe Wong, selling chicken and koay teow soup... I do not like to go to that street nowadays already, especially during the weekends. The whole road will be swarmed with cars and most of them just double parked and at times, one need to be very patient along the road. I am not, unfortunately so I rather not go there...too crowded and commercialized already.

But all is not lost, I can still taste their noodles now at another shop nearby... at least this one is not so crowded... maybe due to the reason that not many know about it (yet)... It bears the same name Tuck Kee in English, not so sure whether it belongs to the same owner or not as mentioned earlier. Same owner or not, I don't really mind as long as the food tastes GOOD!

"Menu" pinned on the wall...
It was around 7pm when we came by... 
There were still some empty tables... thank goodness....
There were 4 of us and we ordered the below....
 
Fat Noodles... (Tai Lok Mi)
Mixed noodles....
Short noodles... (Loe Shu Fun)
Flat noodles with egg gravey (Wat Tan Hor)
Very tasty!!
Love this very much... 
We ordered 5 "Water Dumplings" (Sui Kau)
Steamed octopus...
Just nicely cooked.. not tough...
I conveniently forgot about my cholesterol here...
It blends well with this chillie sauce...
For the above dishes plus drinks, the total cost is RM36
The noodles are tasty.. because of the "lard"
I think I would like to go again...
(but not before I do my cholesterol test!)
LOL...

    Arghhh.... i can go crazy over octopus, i know its unhealthy but i just couldn't resist the temptation.... T.T The Tai Lok Mee looks equally good either, we hardly get some decent Tai Lok Mee here in Penang

    All looks good and best part is cheap. Opppss!!!..that plate of octopus sure makes your cholesterol shoot up but taken once in a blue moon should be ok. Bon appetit.

    I think eat octopus once in a while should be ok. But some people do not believe in this cholesterol thing - I am referring to the book the cholesterol myth.

    The mixed noodles and the egg gravy would have been my favorite today, they look yummy! Good that you found a place that had the same kind of good food and was not too busy.
