Chee Cheong Fun @ Section 14, Petaling Jaya



I first heard about this stall when I read
Loopy Meals' dedication to the wonders of this smooth chee cheong fun. As usual, my urge to try this was shelved as it meant me waking up early in the morning. After two years of hankering for this chee cheong fun, I was reminded of it's existence by Lianne. This time round, I made an effort to try this place.



Being unfamiliar with Section 14, it took me a while to find the stall. It is easy to find the restaurant which is the only coffeeshop in Section 14 but there are 2 chee cheong fun stalls within the restaurant. First time I went it was a Monday hence I thought I had picked the right place. I tasted the chee cheong fun and thought, "Weird, this didn't taste special." My second visit, I finally found this stall.

This one looked genuine as he had loads of pickled green chilies which Loopy Meals loved. The old man which Lianne mentioned was there, busy filling up orders for the morning. Helped by a young man, the stall is quite simple with a transparent plastic case holding the cooked chee cheong fun. As and when the order is placed, he chops the chee cheong fun and ladles the sauce over. I love sesame seeds hence I asked for loads. Yummy stuff! I really liked it but the sauce didn't taste like it had prawn paste, just the ordinary "sweet sauce". You can order various sizes - extra big (RM2.30), big (RM1.90) and small(RM1.50).

  8. I have been staying in Section 14 PJ for almost a decade now. I must say that their CCF is really good. Sometimes I would wonder why there're so many people patronised their stall and ordered huge portion of their CCF without yong tow foo, until I tried it one day, and I must admit it is real stuff man! I think the sweet sauce is really good too. The CCF Uncle has been here for as long as I live here.

  10. it seems like quite a challenge to blog on street or food center hawker stalls back in malaysia.. you always get multiple stalls that sell the same item and they're usually nameless.. ala.. that old man's chee cheong fun or the famous woman with mole above her lip's char kuey teow.. but i guess searching for the food is also part of the whole food adventure deal.
