Noodles are more than a side dish at Kampung Malaysian Cuisine—they are a celebration of tradition, family, and unforgettable flavors. From the fiery heat of our curry mee to the smoky wok-tossed perfection of char kway teow, our noodle dishes reflect the cultural heart of Malaysia and the experience of true kampung (village-style) cooking.
Whether you’re craving something warm and soupy, dry and savory, or layered with seafood and spice, we’ve got a noodle bowl for every craving.
1. Penang Chicken Curry Mee
The soul of Malaysia in a bowl. This classic dish hails from Penang, where curry mee is an everyday staple. At Kampung, we start with a rich coconut milk broth spiced with turmeric, lemongrass, garlic, and chili paste. Then we add a mix of yellow egg noodles and rice vermicelli to soak up the flavor.
Each bowl is generously topped with Halal chicken slices, tofu puffs, bean sprouts, and half a hard-boiled egg. The coconut base balances the spice beautifully, making it ideal for first-time curry eaters and seasoned chili lovers alike.
Why it’s a guest favorite:
Creamy, comforting, and full of complex spice
Tastes even better with a squeeze of calamansi
Vegetarian version available upon request
Pair with: Youtiao (fried dough), iced soy milk, or a side of dumplings.
2. Roast Pork Noodle (Dry-Style)
A timeless Chinese-Malaysian favorite. We take springy egg noodles and toss them in a house-made soy sauce blend infused with garlic oil and scallions. Our slow-roasted pork is caramelized on the outside, tender on the inside, and sliced thick over the noodles.
Accompanied by Chinese greens and pickled chilies, this dry noodle dish is satisfying without needing soup. It’s a go-to for guests who want something bold and hearty without broth.
What makes it special:
Handmade sauce from scratch daily
Pork roasted in-house for deep, smoky flavor
Customizable spice level
Pro tip: Add a soft-boiled egg or chili sambal for extra richness.
3. Seafood Wonton Noodle Soup
A comfort classic for seafood lovers. The base is a clear broth simmered with dried anchovies, shrimp shells, garlic, and scallions for hours. Inside you’ll find chewy egg noodles, house-made shrimp wontons, fish cakes, bok choy, and sometimes a few surprises from the sea.
The wontons are the star here—delicately wrapped and filled with a seasoned shrimp mix, folded fresh each morning by hand. Light but filling, it’s the perfect dish when you want something warm and nourishing.
Why customers come back for it:
Made-to-order broth
Daily hand-folded wontons
Gentle on the stomach, rich in umami
Make it a full meal with a side of bean sprouts and salt fish or vegetarian spring rolls.
4. Char Kway Teow
The wok hei legend. Char Kway Teow is a national treasure of Malaysia and one of our top-sellers. We stir-fry flat rice noodles at high heat with shrimp, Chinese sausage (optional), bean sprouts, egg, garlic, and soy sauce. The high heat gives the noodles a smoky “wok's breath” flavor that no machine can replicate.
This is street food, elevated. It’s spicy, sweet, savory, and slightly charred. Many guests say it reminds them of home or their favorite night market.
Why it’s unforgettable:
Authentic wok hei from our seasoned cast iron woks
Great balance of proteins and vegetables
Optional chili sauce served on the side
Best enjoyed with: Thai iced tea or a cold herbal drink to cool the spice.
5. Yee Mee
A textural adventure in every bite. Yee Mee starts with golden-brown crispy egg noodles, which are then drenched in a savory brown gravy made with chicken stock, oyster sauce, soy, and garlic. The noodles stay crunchy in the center and soft around the edges.
Topped with a medley of seasonal vegetables and your choice of chicken, shrimp, tofu, or all three. This dish satisfies the crunchy-soft-saucy craving in one go.
Why people love it:
Comforting and nostalgic
Versatile toppings
Great for lunch or dinner
It’s also one of the few noodle dishes that feels like a full, rounded meal without the need for sides.
Bonus Bowl: Mee Goreng (Malaysian Fried Noodles)
Craving something spicy and a little bit tangy? Mee Goreng hits every note. Yellow noodles are stir-fried in a house tomato-chili sauce with egg, tofu, and mixed vegetables. We serve it slightly sweet, spicy, and with a hint of smokiness from the wok.
It’s one of the most “Malaysian” dishes on our menu and a hit with both meat-eaters and vegetarians. Add chicken or seafood for extra protein.
