Awesome Breakfast at Imbi Morning Market!

Imbi market is located in KL, somewhere near the Bukit Bintang area. My parents used to bring me here for breakfast when I was a little kid. Today, I’m visiting this morning market again but this time, I’m with the wife.

Awesome Breakfast at Imbi Pasar (Imbi Market)!

Once inside the market, you will see many stalls selling different products and goods from fruits, meat, fish, vegetables, clothes, dried food, biscuits and etc in different sections. You have to walk further in for the food stalls and you will usually find a large crowd of people enjoying their breakfast. Most of the patrons are regulars who have been patronising the food stalls over the years.

1) Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea (阿荣哥海南茶档)

Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea (阿荣哥海南茶档) : Imbi Market

This is a famous stall selling authentic Hainan Tea, Hainan Coffee or ‘Cham’.

Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea (阿荣哥海南茶档) : Imbi Market

Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea RM1.60

Undecided whether to have coffee or tea, we settle for ‘cham’ -a mixture of tea and coffee, topped with frothy foam. A good and refreshing beverage to kickstart my day!

2) Ah Fook Chee Cheong Fun 阿福猪肠粉

3) Sisters’ Crispy Popiah

Sisters’ Crispy Popiah RM2.20 : Imbi Market

Does the name “Sisters’ Crispy Popiah” sound or look familiar? This is because you probably have come across one of this Popiah stalls in shopping malls, like Mid Valley Megamall & Sunway Pyramid.

The Popiah is rolled with fresh ingredients like shredded turnips, carrots, cucumber, egg, ground peanuts and some crispy bits that gives a crunchy and refreshing bite. It’s so very delicious!

The piping hot porridge was velvety smooth with generous loads of fresh chu chap (combination of pork intestines, liver and small mounds of pork meat) and lots of crunchy and sinful deep-fried chu cheong (pork intestines).

5) Ginger and Wine Vermicelli 姜酒米

This bowl of Ginger and Rice Wine Vermicelli with ingredients like prawns, eggs, shredded ginger and pork slices is super tasty. The rice wine and ginger gives it a fragrant smell. It is said that ginger and rice wine is perfect to get rid of the ‘stomach’s wind’. We were sweating like mad by the time we finished this.

6) Bunn Choon Confectionery 品泉

We thought of packing some egg tarts from Bunn Choon 品泉 (next to Ah Weng Koh 阿荣哥海南茶档) before leaving this place but the egg tarts are sold out ;(

Bunn Choon Confectionery 品泉 Charcoal Egg Tart : Imbi Market

However, we managed to get this Charcoal Egg Tart instead. It’s very unique and nice!

Verdict: We will definitely be back as we have yet to try Ah Weng Koh’s famous toasted bread (roti bakar) and the Wantan Mee Stall in front of the Ah Weng Koh. If you don’t mind the heat and sweat, this is a good place to have your breakfast.

This blog is a platform to share what I love in life: food (eat), travel (play), photography (art) and life (thoughts and ideas). With passion for food, I share my foodie adventures and indulgences here. “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

Traveling makes us a better human being as we recognise the similarities and celebrate the differences of cultures between where we travel to and where we come from. “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Photography do more than just capturing the best moments in our lives; they also help us tell our life stories. “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
