Mia Boat Noodle, Popular Mega Book Fair, and Nandos

Went for lunch at Mia Boat Noodle at 1B (1 Borneo mall in KK). It was pretty  crowded the past few times I was at 1B.

From all the writings and signs on the wall, we can gather that this restaurant's menu came from that served on the those sampans in the river at Bangkok.

Looking through the menu showed it was pretty simple. At the top you select either rice noodles (rm1.90 per bowl) or rice (rm4.90 per bowl). For either one, you have the choice of chicken or beef meatball (spicy or original)  .

Then, you can add on other dishes at around rm6 or rm7 each. Choices include fried in batter mushrooms, or chicken wings...  You can then pick one of the beverage from the bottom section of the menu.

From the photo, you can see that each bowl of rice noodles had 1 spoonful of noodles, 1 chicken or beef meatball, and some soup.

Some customers had their table fully covered with these small bowls!


All the add on dishes were nice. I enjoyed them. This was the deep fried oyster mushrooms in an appropriate boat-shaped dish.

Popular Bookshop had a Mega Book Fair over this Christmas and New Year holidays. I bought a couple of discounted books (non-fiction). I may post some of the photos in the book from Life Magazine.


We had dinner at Nandos. I had the Espenada. A skewer of chicken thigh pieces (usually beef in the Portuguese  dish). Very well seasoned, impressive presentation, goes great with all the peri-peri chilli sauces. But insufficient quantity of meat though. Maybe 2 skewers needed?


I tried the Portuguese Egg Tart. Very small and not that tasty. It seemed to have been microwaved?
