🐖 Roast Pork & Char Siew · Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur

🐖 Non-halalRM15–RM40

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.
