Gunung Rapat Chee Cheong Fun & Tai Bao

I couldn't remember why we cancelled our morning walk on this particular morning. It was about 6:45am when we drove out to Gunung Rapat.

Morning sky at 6:59am. 


7.05am
7:06am
~~~~~
Someone told us of a stall selling steamed rice noodle (chee cheong fun) by the roadside in Gunung Rapat. We were told that this stall enjoys good business and the noodle is very nice. We found the stall on the left side of the road, in front of the church.
Price list and contact number.
They cater mostly takeaway business because there is only 1 foldable table with 2 plastic chairs for those who wants to eat there. Since the table and chairs were available, we chose to eat there.
While we sat and waited to be served, it is true that they were very busy with their takeaway business.
We waited and were served after 7 to 8 minutes of waiting.
We both ordered small portion to try, RM2.70 each.
Hubby wanted the plain noodle served with only the shallot oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds, crispy shallots and picked green chili.
I ordered the same but requested for sweet sauce and curry gravy.
Our review: Taste good but we still prefer the one in Canning Garden.
Plus, we were not comfortable sitting by the roadside.
Since we were in the same vicinity, we came here for our coffee fix and also might as well ordered the steamed big bun (tai bao) to share. We don't usually come to Gunung Rapat for breakfast.
Delicious tai bao.
Forgot the price but compared to other place, this is still reasonable.
I couldn't resist ordering this deep fried prawn dumplings.
As we sat there enjoying what we had ordered, we could hear the seller informing their customers that the steamed big buns (tai bao) were all sold out. Checking the time, it was only 7:35am.
Heliconia psittacorum.
I took this snapshot in my sister's garden. This plant can be very invasive. It spread through their underground roots or rhizomes.


Listen to me, my people, my chosen ones!
I alone am God. I am the First; I am the Last.
It was my hand that laid the foundations of the earth;
the palm of my right hand spread out the heavens above;
I spoke and they came into being.
(Isaiah 48:12-13, The Living Bible-TLB)

  8. Stunning views of the sky! Despite being a roadside stall, I hope they sell hygienic food. I prefer takeaway than to eat there.
    Have a nice weekend

  9. I like the food, especially the bao, which I have not had in a long time. Too bad it was not a regular restaurant.

  14. Thank you Nancy for the beautiful sky photos. The Gunung Rapat Chee Cheong Fun looks soft. I like to eat soft ccf. The Tai Bao must be very tasty to sell out so early. Is there a hard boiled egg in the Tai Bao?

    1. If I remember correctly, yes, there is a hard boiled egg or a half boiled egg in it.

    1. If ever there is a 2nd time, we will take away the food.

  17. Wow, your sister’s Heliconia is stunning! In Finland it is being sold at florist shops. It is nice to try new restaurants, but of course they do not always appeal. I agree that eating at the roadside is not pleasant.

  18. The skies were cloudy but pretty that morning. If you like the other noodles just as well or better, it's not worth going all that way i would imagine.

    Why are invasive plants so often pretty? You get tricked into planting them because they look so nice then they take over!

    1. So true. I planted this plant in my garden because of its beauty but later, had a hard time digging out all the roots to rid it from my garden.
