Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant


Like any other Taiwanese and Hongkie eateries, Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant in the Gardens is often packed with patrons. Getting a table might be a pain, there is always a queue at the counter.

Personally i don’t prefer Taiwanese restaurants because there is no privacy at all. All the tables are placed so close to each other that there is no way to have a conversation without worrying others might hear what we are saying. It’s pretty difficult to have a conversation too when there are so much noise going on. I least prefer going to Hongkie restaurants for the same reason and especially because the food isn’t that good.

Fong Lye interior is cheery and refreshing with bright lighting but they also spot the same space problem that i dislike. It’s embarrassing to squeeze in to my sit with my butt practically shoved into my neighbors face. Oh, well…

The food though is not bad at all. If i’m not mistaken, the price is ranging from approx. RM8.00++ above.

The Braised Beef Noodle was good. Aromatic and a little spicy with slices of tender braised beef. The portion is big too. The noodle comes with side dishes of cube potato and carrot in mayonnaise, sliced celery and fried chicken in bread crust.

However, i must say i had better braised beef noodle ay Kepong. The soup base is a little bit diluted here.

My favorite is the Pig Intestine Mee Sua. Surprisingly, at RM9.80, this is one of the cheapest on the menu.

I was pretty grossed out at first when he ordered this from the menu. I am not a fan of intestines. In fact, i’m not a fan of any innard part of anything.

If you have tasted the Oyster Mee Sua from Shihlin Street Snacks than you should try this. It’s much better because it’s thicker and more aromatic.The mee sua is baby smooth.

Oh yeah, i kind of liked the pudding milk tea that i ordered but i think it’s too pricey.

Fong Lye’s food is alright and the service is pretty good. Our food came within a few minutes even though the tables are fully occupied. However, what i do not like is the spacing of the restaurant. I wished that i could have more privacy when dining. Moving around in the restaurant is difficult too with the narrow space.

Also, i think the food is a little bit pricey but still affordable.



Pig Intestine Mee Sua - RM9.80
Pudding Milk Tea - RM7.30
Watermelon Milk - RM7.30
Braised Beef Noodle - RM19.80

Total: RM50.85 (RM44.30 + RM4.42-service charge + RM2.21-tax)
