It was a rough and tiring week for me… feeling my ultraman’s light beeping low batt warning after lunch, Joe suggested we go for lunch at Sentul since its on the way back from our meeting. So we head on to Restoran Makanan Laut Zhen Liew Siang in Sentul Raya in KL.
At first I thought Joe was referring to Restoran Makanan Laut Lau Heong (Lau Heong is Cantones for Liew Siang) in Sentul Perdana. So I was a bit confused when Joe brought me there. According to Joe, he used to dined there since the Jalan Ipoh time, and after moving to Sentul, there’s sort of a break off and therefore you have 2 of them.
But this one in Chinese, Zhen Liew Siang means the original Liew Siang 
. Anyhow, since there are just 3 of us, we ordered the ever famous stringray with szechuan style chili on top, steamed. Then the must have sotong and prawns sizzling on banana leaf! We add a fried sweet potato leaf just to balance up our diet 
.
To me, the taste in both place is yummy and very good! You just gotta have rice and you will, add rice for the sotong and prawns dish! Each of us got a huge prawns and a bunch of sotong, only complain not enough of the yummy sauce to take with rice!
The stringray is excellent too, soft and the chili sauce on top makes it perfect, again with rice! So, be prepare to add more rice eating here, you can’t resist, trust me.
Total meal comes to RM45.00 for 3 person . Joe also recommended other dishes here like their curry fish head and deep fried pork knuckle, I will save those next time when we have more people joining.
Open: 11am to 3pm, 5.30pm to 11pm.

Hi people!
I just had a family dinner at this restaurant. I must say I enjoyed all the food mentioned above ie deep fried wings, sotong n prawn, pork knuckle, claypot fish curry n of course the famous lala in superior soup. All went well n it was a good reunion, however my aunt found a fly in the lala dish. We called for the management to come and see us and I can see 3 of the people managing the restaurant running away from our tables. After asking the indonesian workers to get their boss to come and see us, a lady came to our table. She was supremely rude and told us that it is not their fault that there is a fly in the lala. It came from the pasar/market n hence it is not to their knowledge that a FLY is in a particular lala. Hello !!! we would have felt better n not kick a fuss if she had apologised n all. All she did was shirk all responsibility to the market and told us loudly that they will take the dish off the bill.
Her attitude got our clan upset n we asked for an apology from her. All she did was to storm away and another lady came to apologise on belahf and again offer to take one dish off the bill (we had 3 tables mind you !!) our bill came up to more than RM550. Nope its not as cheap as Gina’s post but yes food is good but you must be able to take a FLY as a flavouring!!
