Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
Order: Charcoal-roasted siew yoke with crackling skin
KL's siew yoke benchmark: the boss marinates, roasts over charcoal and chops every slab himself. The crackling shatters, the meat stays juicy, and it's usually all gone within about three hours of the noon opening. Bib Gourmand since Michelin's first KL guide.
Taman Pertama, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
Order: Fatty caramelised char siew and siew yoke rice
The char siew that keeps topping KL lists: well charred and sticky outside, with plenty of fat that melts in the mouth. Expect a lunch crowd and a fight for parking. Pair it with their double-boiled soup.
Taman Shamelin Perkasa, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
Order: Melt-in-the-mouth char siu
A veteran char siu man from the Meng Kee family who came out of retirement at 81 to roast again with his son. His tender, glossy char siu has a loyal following, and roast pork and chicken are on the menu too.
