Cili8 fires up its selection with no fewer than eight pan mee recipes, with the noodles freshly prepared everyday - of the three we tried, our favourite is the Treasure Pot Pan Mee (RM29.90++, suitable for two persons), its smooth, hand-made strips of pan mee served in a claypot packed with sea cucumber, abalone, fish maw, scallops, mushrooms & broccoli in a naturally sweet soup. Other options include the Volcano Pan Mee, with minced chicken, mushrooms & fried garlic in belacan-spiked curry laksa (RM11.90++) & the classic Cili Pan Mee with poached egg, chilli flakes, fried anchovies & onions (RM10.90++).
Going beyond pan mee, we like the crispy noodles with smoked duck, tasty & nicely textured on every level (RM14.90). A few non-noodle creations are available, most notably fried porridge with youtiao & ginger, for a hearty, warming lunch (RM8.90++).
