This place is located inside Segambut Dalam, very near to the Jln Ipoh Yong Tau Foo as well as the famous Segambut Seafood Noodles. Its basically a make shift shops under a big tree, shady and quite cooling with fans.

The lady boss recommended their Vietnamese African fish… well in cantonese, talapia we called it african fish (fei chou yu). So its basically talapia deep fried then covered with spicy and sour vietnamese paste. The paste is greenish, looks like a blend with green bird chilis with with lime and a whole lot of stuff. First taste, it reminds me of the same of the same greenish paste I tasted in Thailand, looks like a very northern Thailand-Vietnam thing. Fish is crispy and the paste is quite good.

Next up are their own made beancurd, nothing fantastic and a little salty, I think I should start avoiding the restaurant own made beancurd from now on which are basically beancurd mixed with fish paste then deep fried.

A plate of vegetables to balance up the meal was included but some funny people questioned me for ordering vegetables saying there’s already beancuard. Hehehe, people who don’t vegetables as you can see :P

Last is the steaming hot claypot pork with salted fish or we called it the far lum poh. Its basically the fat part of the pork belly meat stir fried with salted fish. The lady boss remarked that this is one of their popular dish. Usually in most places, they keep the meat tender but in this place, they seems to fried it dry like a jerky, different but nice.

Total cost plus drinks for 4 pax is about RM56.00. KL rated I supposed but I think we could have been done with just 3 dishes or can get more people aboard with the same dishes next round ;) .

I have been eating in this place since I was kid, well most people refer to it as duck rice, but I usually refer to it as duck porridge because the porridge is my favourite since I was a kid ;)

The duck are braised or lou ngap in cantonese. Ducks are served with rice or porridge, you can also have side dishes like duck intestine, beancurds, salted veges, etc. Price is still ok and it remains one of my favourite spots to eat in the area.

This place only open for dinner and can be really packed on weekends, so come early to avoid disappointment. Its on Jalan Tengah, just next to UOB bank and Menara MPPJ in PJ Newtown. Pricing is still reasonable at this place, do check it out, yummy.

This is a yong tau foo place near the Segambut-Jln Ipoh junction in KL, its been around for quite a long time used to be on the otherside of the road. Its just next to the overhead highway coming from Jalan Duta.

These place start crowding after 12.30pm and its parking will be packed then. I prefer to sit inside the restaurant as it has fan, the porch seems to be hot. Besides the usual yong tau foo, they also have a good rojak stall. Price is standard KL rate and there are a variety of other stuff besides yong tau foo like paper wrap chicken, etc.
