Ulu Yam Yam.

Ulu Yam is a small little town (if you can call it a town) that one can stop by on the way to Genting Highlands. Or if you're own the way back to Kuala Lumpur, you can detour via Gohtong Jaya (at the Awana Genting roundabout).

All the restaurants at Ulu Yam Lama look like a typical village home in suburbs across Malaysia. But there's one that is especially famous for the Ulu Yam Loh Mee (egg-based soup homemade udon-like noodles cooked with pork, seafood, vegetables and served with Chinese black vinegar, as shown above).

The address is unmistakably No.34, Jalan Besar, Ulu Yam Lama, Ulu Selangor.

On the side, do try their fried homemade 'bouncy' fishcake and Yong Foo Chook (fried beancurd skin with fish paste).

The vegetables here are mostly plain-fried, and they're organic i.e. grown in their own backyard.

For fruit juices, there's the highly recommended Po Lo Meet (Jack Fruit Juice) that you just have to try.

And, you can buy some of their freshly made noodles that comes in plastic bags and try your hand at cooking them at home.

Last but not least, the rambutans are priced at only RM5 a bunch, so you'd say "Why not?" without thinking twice.
