All 29 Pork Dishes

Deep-Fried Spare Ribs

Oversea Restaurant

Bukit Bintang·$$

MYR7.00

Tender spare ribs battered and crisped, served with a salty-savory coating.

Tip: A shareable starter that pairs well with steamed vegetables — crispy outside, tender inside.

Char Siu Pau (Barbecued Pork Bun)

Bunn Choon

Chinatown·$$

MYR10.00

Soft, pillowy steamed bun filled with sweet and savory barbecued pork.

Tip: These are best eaten immediately after steaming — the bun firms up as it cools. Order fresh batches from the cart.

Wonton Noodle Soup

Sek Yuen

Pudu·$$

MYR18.00

Springy yellow noodles in a clear, umami-rich pork and shrimp broth, topped with plump wontons.

Tip: If queues are too long for a full meal, this is a quicker bowl to order at the counter area — still authentic and deeply representative of the restaurant's origins.

Wonton Soup

Qing Ji

Chinatown·$

MYR8.00

Plump wontons filled with minced shrimp and pork in a clear, aromatic pork bone broth.

Tip: A light breakfast or lunch — filling but not heavy. Perfect paired with Chinese tea or coffee from other stalls.

Claypot Loh Shu Fan

Kim Lian Kee

Chinatown·$

MYR15.00

Thin, delicate silver needle noodles stir-fried and served sizzling in a clay pot.

Tip: The claypot stays hot longer — eat carefully to avoid burns on the lips and palate.

Bak Kut Teh - Pork Trotters (Ka Wan)

Gao Sang Bak Kut Teh

Klang·$

MYR16.00

Braised pig's trotters in thick dark broth, skin and cartilage turn silken after hours of cooking.

Tip: The trotters are the prized cut — bouncy skin and gelatinous texture that distinguishes proper bak kut teh.

Bak Kut Teh - Sui Kut (Soft Bone)

Gao Sang Bak Kut Teh

Klang·$

MYR16.00

Dark broth with softer, smaller bones that dissolve easily, meat very tender.

Tip: Easier to eat than tua kut — bones break apart easily so less wrestling required.

Prawn and Pork Rice Noodles with Vegetables

Qing Ji

Chinatown·$

MYR13.00

Rice noodles topped with both prawns and pork slices, plus stir-fried leafy greens.

Tip: The greens are the key — they add a bitter note that makes the sweet broth more interesting. Don't skip them.

Yut Kee

Chow Kit·$

MYR11.00

Yellow noodles in a silky chicken and pork bone broth, topped with sliced chicken and fried shallots.
