Great Curry Mee in Kuala Lumpur - Wangsa Maju (Beside LRT station)

Go to this hawker's food court "kopitiam" restaurant just beside the Wangsa Maju LRT station...

And look for this curry mee stall...

She is the hardworking and smiley happy auntie who prepares the curry mee...

Ask for extra bean curd skin and cockles...

Yummy... yummy! Two bowls... Finished in 20 minutes... (Actually I had another bowl of "Yong Tau Foo"... As you can see from the photo.) Food marathon that evening...
