There's a stall that opens only during the evening in the neighborhood kopitiam. It sells steamed pre-cooked dishes and is run by a couple. I remembered the couple's kids were still small when I first patronised the stall some 20 years++ ago. Nowadays the grown-up adult kids took over the stall although the couple are still running the operation. I hardly see any helper, so it's mainly run by the family members. The mother still calls her son as "ah boy" despite him being a grown-up man now😂
I used to order steamed fish, some greens and a few small dishes when dined with family.
This time i re-visited the stall again after more than 10 years+ (since my last visit) and ordered 2 dishes for 1 pax.
I had braised yam with pork and blanched iceberg lettuce in soy sauce.
A good mix of fat and lean meat in the pork dish. So, I would definitely order that again. RM17 nett for this meal.

Roasted duck breast rice from "136 restaurant"
This was sometime last year when I still have 10% discount voucher. After applying the discount, this rice costs only RM9.45 nett. Such a good value.
This would satisfy my craving for roasted duck for now😁

Back to have solo steamboat at Two Pesos.
I would usually order fish with chicken soup base.
As for carbs, it is definitely yee mee although they have other types of noodles and rice to choose from.
The weekday lunch promo costs somewhere RM14.90++ (or around RM15.80~nett).
I like this kind of steamboat, less hassle as the food portion is based on per pax.
When in group steamboat, there tend to be over-orders and food wastage. The last time I went for a CNY steamboat (with colleagues) we have to force ourselves to finish the stuffs. So, no more group steamboat for me.

My fav lou shi fun...I like the chewy qq texture of the noodle.
Well, the lou shi fun is plain in taste by default. The flavors came from minced pork, spam and fried egg. Add with some cili padi for extra umpphhh.
Many years ago, I heard of people died from excessive boric acid in lou shi fun. Apart from lou shi fun, yellow noodles also has high level of boric acid, hence my family seldom eat such noodles....but now I'm eating it almost weekly😂
oh dear....
