Mee Rebus Ramli.

There is no long, complicated story attached to the name of this restaurant. It belongs to the Ramli family. And their specialty is Mee Rebus - literally translated as 'Boiled Noodles'.

And true enough, the noodles are neither fried nor braised. Just boiled, for probably 10 seconds or more.

But, there's really nothing simple about this Mee Rebus. The special not-too-spicy-but-delicious-as-hell sauce that's poured over the noodles, complemented by a fresh lime that's squeezed on by yourself, garnished by sliced potatoes, fried fitters, cubes of fried beancurd, chopped spring onions, fried shallots and cut chillies, is – uniquely Ramli's.

Other Mee Rebus that you find across Malaysia, (except for the other 2 Mee Rebus Ramli, also located strategically across Ipoh), will not have the same light, refreshing taste that Mee Rebus Ramli offers.

Apart from the must-try Mee Rebus, there's the Ayam Goreng (Fried Chicken) to share among your fellow one2two-ers.

The addresses to the 3 Mee Rebus Ramli are:

The one I went to sits right across the historical Shaw Brothers building... and that's a truly long, complicated story.
