Shih Lin Taiwan Street Snacks

The Taiwanese are famous for their street snacks, but instead of flying all the way to Taiwan to enjoy this gastronomical affair along the foodie streets, right now I can try some of them at Shih Lin, a franchaise of Taiwan street snacks in Malaysia. Far from being found in the streets, Shih Lin Taiwan Street Snacks targets the upmarket shopping centres and hypermarts in Malaysia.

Fancy some Taiwan street snacks? Shih Lin offers XXL crispy chicken, handmade oyster mee sua, crispy floss egg crepe and seafood tempura. Eat as you walk! XXL crispy chicken is their bestseller.

You can read up their story on the walls of their bright red stalls.
oyster noodles

This is the handmade oyster mee sua. My first impression of this mee sua is that, it actually taste a lot like shark fin, texture and tastewise. A few more spoonfuls and it will taste more like mee sua. Owing to the fact that it is actually made with oyster, I get quite “jelak” towards the end. Oh, on the first look there were no oysters, but they were actually buried deep down. Two of them oysters, haha!

chicken

The XXL crispy fried chicken.

Very crispy and flavourfully seasoned.

Better than Uncle Bob’s, I would say.

soyabean milk

And soy bean milk to wash down everything. Nope, I can’t stomach the remaining two snacks in the menu already. Some other time perhaps?

This branch of Shih Lin is in Muar’s Giant. They are more coming soon to your nearest shopping centres!

    Hi, I went there today, but I don’t seem to find the shop… Is it still there? Or no more? In their other outlets, their soy bean milk is served in bottles, but according to your photo, this outlet serves it in a cup…

    Hi and thanks for dropping by!

    This post was written in Nov 07 so I have no idea if it is still there. Maybe you could check out their other outlets here - http://www.shihlinsnacks.com.tw/MY/locations-my.htm

    Yeap I was given a plastic cup for the soy bean. They actually came in bottles? I’ll check it out if I see another Shih Lin.
