Yong Peng's Hock Chew Mee

What is Yong Peng famous for? Its Hock Chew mee and fish balls of course. Hock Chew is Hokkien for the Fuzhou Province in China. After attending a wake at Bekok, we went to the popular Hock Swee Hin restaurant to try out its noodles and other dishes. It's on Yong Peng's main street, closest to the Police station. It's opposite the Police station if you come from Batu Pahat. People who pass Yong Peng will also usually buy a couple of kilos of uncooked fish balls to cook with their glass vermicelli soup.




The Hock Swee Hing restaurant


The restaurant is neat, clean and well ventilated


Friends enjoying their egg-white soup


The egg-white soup, which looks like shark fin soup. It comprises beaten egg white, and minced pork. Its distinctive taste lies in the judicious addition of black vinegar


The menu displaying a wide variety of food


Thinly sliced fried brinjal on a bed of raw cabbage. Just can't describe the taste, but it's delicious. The sourness comes from black vinegar which is commonly used in Hock Chew Cuisine


This is the famous Hock Chew mee or noodles; rather unappealing visually, but the noodles, fried with pork, lard and vegetables are fabulous

The restaurant also sells a variety of fruits


Passion fruit


Soursop




It also sells wild honey, which is in great demand

  1. We have been informed and told everyone to everyone. YIP KUM FOOK (lawyer, president of SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE) was embarrassed by Buddhism, as a shame of the Buddhist world

    In addition, do dirty with monks. He thinks this temple is his, when we read the articles on the internet, our mind is sadder because of many posts and comments on the internet.

    But he still doesn't know anything. Maybe he is close to the six senses feelings. This is very low knowledge. Some old man groups at Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong are also very embarrassing when they speak about SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE

    On the contrary, if this Yip Kum Fook has learned the law, he needs to understand some laws, other lawyers do not make problems and deceive people, only this Yip Kum Fook in the world…..

    In Buddhist also same, if he understands Buddhist knowledge, why does he need to do badly, insult Buddhist monks (rejected monks out from Temple), we know about SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE because we are groups opened this Temple at Taman Ehsan on 1987
    We don't say much because of his karma (YIP)

  2. People will have a chance to change you do bad things to people but karma will not give you a chance forever, you will suffer all your life because you have suffered a lot to people

    Now many people know in Kepong area about you doing evil, the last time you did something bad people don't care, when you do it with Buddhist monks, that your karma will always increase and you will suffer before you die

    What you are doing with the Buddhist Sangha are a very biggest sin in this life because Buddhist monks, they have practices in their journey(way) or teachings, we are ordinary people born in the world for a while and you are destroying Buddhist culture, Buddhist monks never do anything only to be you are angry but you are jealous of them(Buddhist Monks)

    This Datuk Yip Kum Fook and his security and spy (Simon Low Kok Meng (Taman Daya, Kepong) everyone needs to be careful because it is more dangerous in Kepong... Mr. Simon Low is the mastermind for Datuk Yip Kum Fook... both are large crocodiles
