The taste of the noodle reminds me of past time when there were no preservatives added, it tasted so natural yet quite umami.. the snacks were delicious as well. Probably the cheapest bakmi karet in town.

Baby chairs available but limited (as far as I can see only 2 are available). The room is air-conditioned, but because the doors and windows are open in the kitchen area, the air-conditioning doesn't feel much. Maybe if a barrier is made in the form of glass, it will make the room cooler without reducing the impression of the process of making food. Serving time is quite fast and the taste offered is quite good. Accept payments in cash or cashless. How to order : 1. Go straight to the cashier which is right in front of the entrance 2. Name the food you want to order 3. pay directly at the cashier 4. choose the table where you want to sit, the food will be delivered directly to your table.

The taste is good, when i came here i ordered Mie Karet Ayam Charshio for regular portion it cost 30k and jumbo portion 45k exclude PPN. Quite expensive but i think the price suits well in G Walk Area. I dont know why is it me or the jumbo portion seems like regular portion to me. Ambience : it feels like modern-traditional chineese stall, the eating area, cashier and kitchen at the same place. So we can see the live cooking and how neat the place is. The interior is not too "menye menye"

Chun Li Noodle Bar: A Delightful Experience with Customizable Options I decided to try Chun Li Noodle Bar because I was intrigued by their unique noodle choices—rubber noodles and curly noodles—along with several seasoning options (original, classic, yamin, and curry), two portion sizes (regular & large), and a variety of toppings and side dishes. I went with the chasiu chicken noodles, already expecting a sweet flavor, but this one was a bit too sweet for my taste. Of course, taste is subjective, and others might find it just right. Fortunately, the sweetness could be balanced with their selection of chili sauces and condiments. Next time, I’d love to try a different topping! The curly noodles were perfectly cooked—not too soft, not undercooked—which I really appreciated. The broth was rich and flavorful, though I wish it had been served a bit hotter. They open early at 6:30 AM, making it a great breakfast spot after a morning workout. With both indoor and outdoor seating available, it’s a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their menu!
