The old-fashioned noodle stall.
Outmoded cutlery.
Obsolete tables and chairs.
But still, people keep coming back.
Located in a busy street of Katamso, Mie Meymey (Meymey noodle) was quite hard to find. I did not see any signs, just relied on my childhood memory. It was a small noodle stall with 9 tables inside. Crowded as usual, I was lucky enough to be seated right away.
It was a quick service. One minute and my breakfast was ready. A bowl of noodle with minced chicken and vegetables on top (17k). The meatballs was a good complement to be eaten with.
The noodle was soft. A good one while I used to find chewy noodles at Jakarta. The minced chicken was fragrant and appetizing. The flavor was just right.
Mie Meymey was famous with their meatballs (1.2k each) . I could see it was something I could find on every table. The texture was fine but I found the soup need a touch of soy sauce and pepper to make it better.
It was a pleasant breakfast. I was enjoying every bite of it. I guess I know what do those people look for. Surely one of my fave!
