Air Itam Noodles

#summervacay Founded in 1946 by Tan Ah Heng and continued by her daughters Lim Kooi Heang (85) and Lim Kooi Lye (83), who worked over a charcoal fire with pots, noodles, and toppings spread out on the ground.bToday they’re supported by their granddaughter Ong May May, though the sisters still play a hands-on role. Their curry mee features a balanced, aromatic coconut broth, ladled over noodles and garnished with tau pok, cuttlefish, coagulated pork blood, and homemade sambal. #travel #couplestrip
