We are buying dinner for our buddy boon who is back fr Tokyo on a break and decided to do it at Cheong Wah Seafood in Pusat Bandar Puchong based on the fussy guy’s recommendation. They now have their own building and parking lot with security which is good. The whole place is air conditioned but sadly the service is a bit slow and its quite crowded even for a weekday.

There are like hundreds of varieties from home dishes to good seafood to the expensive stuff. We ordered deep fried prawns topped with oats, deep fried salted egg vegetables, minced pork tofu, lum yee pork ribs, steam fish (pak soh kung) with garlic and onion paste, superior soup lala, herbal steam chicken and a yam ring to finished it off, talk about 8 courses meal!

Not to elaborate more, everything is good, the portions are big and so are the size of the food served and its just delicious. Everything come up to below RM280.00 and we got 9 free ice cream with it, cool!

We were hashing in FRIM in Kepong and just outside FRIM locates Kg Kepong Ulu. Just as you enter the Kampung, turn right and there are a few makan place. So our good friend The Bull went and scout the area and he told us there are BKT. So the whole group of 7 mountain bikers head there and found out that the 3 big pots are actually not BKT.

Anyhow, we parked our bikes and check out what they have there. You have the choice of curry noodles, pork noodles or pan mee. The shop does not have any signboard, so look for the 3 big pots and some sitting area outside next to the car wash. I ordered the dry pan mee while The Bull ordered the curry noodles.

The curry noodles looks really impressive and yummy when it arrived with generous amount of toppings but it just taste normal. The dried pan mee was really good and we actually share another one since its so yummy and we had sort of burned out our energy in FRIM, which is a very nice and scenic place to cycle btw. Put some of its chili paste and the pan mee is covered with minced meat and fried anchovies.

Excellent place to makan after a good exercise, recommended for the dried pan mee ;).

This place is just located near the Taman Bahagia LRT stations, behind the Perodua showroom in Jalan SS2/1. There are quite a number of food stalls located here at night, but the one you will want to try is the stall which sells mee rebus and it only opens at 8pm. You can’t miss it because there is always a long queue here.

According to a friend of mine from Sg. Petani in Kedah, the stall originated from that area as well, serving food the Kedah Chinese way. The mee rebus as well as laksa are served on plates. Plus they have a variety of kuih which are unique to the Chinese up north which is very true cause I can’t find them elsewhere. They also serve a few types of chinese tong shui as dessert.

Many thanks to Sky who buy me the good food generously that night :). I had the mee rebus, which some chai kuih and this glutinous rice kuih which have peanuts in them (cannot remember the name).

The mee rebus is light, not too heavy yet just nice with a squeeze of lime. The kuih are good too but I still miss the home made one my friend’s mum used to make.

There are a few other stalls in the same place to try, the porridge stall have a lot of other varieties and some mamak stalls too. Check it out

At Bukit Kemuning area along Jalan Kebun, heading to Klang direction, there are a few small chinese restaurant serving the local communities there. Me and some friends plus their kids stumbled upon Tien Tien Lai which served dishes plus seafood.

As you drive heading to Klang, the place is just on your right, brightly lite and filled with diner’s cars outside. They have some big mud crabs selling at RM36 per kg, which is quite ok rate. But since there are only the few of us, we ordered a fried lala (clams), salted egg pork ribs (unique!), fried vegetables and sizzling pan tofu for the little kid. The soya drink here comes in a big bottle, looks home made and is nice.

Food quality is good overall, I like it, lala are the small type but the sauce is nice and the salted egg pork ribs is something different. Price is average and is a good place to dine. But it gets crowded on weekend, so the wait is a bit long, the kitchen seems to be busy non stop.

This place have been around for a long time in Klang, just at Jalan Pekan Baru off Jalan Meru (near Klang Parade). This is one of the many places that’s already serving dried bak kut teh when other places have not done so.

On a weekday morning, the crowd is quite ok but lunch time and weekend will be packed. I ordered the soup as well as the dried one. The dried one is not bad but not spicy enough and lack those dried “yau yee” that makes it yummy! I still prefer the soup version of the BKT here
