Or rather the parallel street behind Jalan Alor, at the corner opposite Nova Hotel, I believe. The meal above costs RM6.50 (erm, under USD2) — slices of beef; entrails like crunchy stomach lining and intestines; and more conventional beef balls in a clear soup served with dry noodles with a minced meat sauce — think Chinese-style spaghetti ;). The most important condiment is the highly addictive garlic chili sauce which is my favourite in the city. My dessert is another popular local drink to ‘detox’ or ‘cool’ the body: think citron presse but made with fresh lime juice and preserved sour plums (gat chai shuen mui). Ah simply blissful. Definitely worth my random drive there to get my fix.

Beef soup. YUM YUM.

Located at the city’s red light district, I always find the area very bohemian, reminds me of Soho in London too ;)
