Angie's Malaysian Eatery - Burnaby, BC, Canada

fried beehoon (stir fry rice stick)

This time on our Vancouver trip we happened to have a small family reunion. Somebody mentioned Seria noodle. Curious I looked it up and found out this Angie's Malaysian Eatery that offers Seria kolomee among other things on their menu.

Seria is a small town in Brunei a small country in the island of Borneo of South East Asia. Brunei is next door to Malaysia but I guess there's not much demand of Bruneian cuisine and Malaysian cuisine is a better selling point.

The restaurant was not very big but it's a good thing it was not too busy so we could all fit in there without waiting. The menu didn't have pictures but they had stack of loose photos of the dishes they offered. Nice. I didn't bother looking at the pictures because I know what I wanted to order.

Had I looked at those pictures I would not have ordered the nasi lemak. When the nasi lemak arrived I was surprised to see the green rice side by side with the other condiments like fried chicken, fried anchovies and chili sambal. I have never had a green nasi lemak before and it didn't feel like the green color added any flavor to it. The fried chicken was not the type of fried chicken normally served with nasi lemak. So the nasi lemak was a big disappointment.


Hubby ordered the fried beehoon(rice noodle). The rice noodle was the thin type and it was fried the Singaporean style fried beehoon with curry powder, shrimp, and chinese sausage. I thought the noodle was flavorful and good but hubby was disappointed because he was expecting something else without the curry flavor. But the good thing was since we had a big group so our order wasn't exactly ours to enjoy ourselves. We shared with the big group so nothing got wasted.

Our third order was the Seria kolomee which turned out to be a winner. The noodle was served on a bowl with some sliced pickled chili. The noodle was very thin with toppings like minced pork, sliced fish cake, etc. Both hubby and I thought the noodle was good despite the noodle being thin. But apparently the other family member who brought up the Seria noodle idea wasn't completely satisfied. He thought there should be more minced pork to the bowl. Oh well.
