Categories : Chinese | Stall / Warung | Bak Kut Teh

 
Hi!!! I have been mention this for a few times, but if you don't know, let me just say it again. I have been intern in KL for now. I stay in Seapark area, where you literally find a great number of good foods in every corner!

I have been trying this Bak Kut Teh on one random day, their Bak Kut Teh is savoury!! I really wish to share this with all of you. Not only people who live in Seapark should try, in fact, people who stay in Klang, the place where Bak Kut Teh is found famous should tried! You should have just freaking try them!

I personally approached them, offer to review them. Because it's just a loss not to share this! I feel glad and honoured to get to review this instead. A true good Bak Kut Teh meal, that worth your every penny/ringgit.

 
Sea Park Bak Kut Teh- One of the olden day road side stall, which has been cater the stomach of people around for the past 25 years. It's a family business, the quality were strictly control. It is still until now cooked by the same boss, whom started to prepare since afternoon. The picture shown above is the second generation of their family already.

 

 
Beverage

Dark : Herbal Tea RM 1.50

White: Fu Yuk Yi Mai (Tofu skin with barley) Rm 2.50

The drinks were fu chuk yi mai (beancurd sheet/tofu skin & barley) and herbal tea.Both were home-made. I have tried some fu chuk yi mai in other place, which were quite disappointed, because the texture is so rough, and just not pure. This fu chuk yi mai here is refined and feeling nourishing.

There are also selection of oily rice or just plain rice. Good news is both were the same price(Rm 1.50) .

Usually before the Bak Kut Teh is served, Yao zha guai would come first with the Bak Kut Teh Herbal soup. And here come my FIRST DELIGHT, a bowl of Bak Kut Teh only with the soup, savour to the max. I like the soup more than the Yao Zha Guai , ended up the soup always finish before the Yao Zha Guai. The Yao Zha Guai is a tad bit of sweet instead.

 

 
Bak Kut Teh Rm 15/ person

All the claypot food here is RM 15/ person.Not only the broth has a nice flavourful aroma. The main ingredients here, (pork meat, lean meat, pork rib , pork intestine) used is fresh and never frozen, but only put in water.And this explain why they never open on Monday, (fresh por were supplied every new day)

because on Monday, no pork were supplied. To ensure the best part of pork ribs is being used, they actually has a regular supplier, but they also went to Pasar pagi to buy from the pork seller, who actually get pork from the same suppliers. Because these pork seller actually get those pork at around 3-4am, hence all the good part were taken. As they only get the pork from the supplier around 7am, hence , in order to ensure a good pot of Bak Kut Teh and customer's satisfaction, they spent extra time, effort to buy some nice pork meat from pork seller.

Which indeed, I get to taste it a little different from others, in a way, I do not know how to explain. It is not stale, but fresh.

And they used shiitake mushroom instead the usual button mushroom or enoki mushroom, this is among one of the little details that make me love this Seapark Bak Kut Teh.

 

 
Pig Trotters with Vinegar 猪脚醋 Rm 15/ person

All the claypot food there, for a portion of one person, Rm 15 is quite a lot. You will be very full as soon as you finish them. So it's totally worth your penny! Above all, RM 15 is not only about the big portion, but the good ingredients, producing a delicious meal , I literally going back home full and wish to come back here again.

Actually, during the review day, this Pig Trotters with Vinegar (猪脚醋) give me the biggest surprise. Bak Kut Teh is not less delicious than this. But having to try Bak Kut Teh previously (This was my second time here), I already knew how the taste is. This PIg Trotters with Vinegar definitely is limelight for the meal!

I don't usually eat Pig Trotters with Vinegar, because the taste is just weird, either too sweet or too sour, or both. This one, the taste is heavily flavourful, YOU JUST HAVE TO TRY THIS, the taste is flavourful, so far the best Pig Trotters I ever tried. My partner who had this with me, said that the taste was smooth, and won't be choking. (很顺口,不会呛到)

 
酸辣菜 (“Sour & Spicy Vegetable")Rm 15/person

I perfect the first 2 dishes more than this. This one is ordinarily delicious.

 
Stir-Fried Cabbage with Garlic & Soysauce

Small- RM 8

Medium- RM 10

Large-RM 12

The first time when I ordered stir-fried vege , using Yam Mak (another type of vege ) is better. Stir-fry with garlic/garlic oil enhance the overall taste. The sauce is watery, soy-sauce-y , but the vegetable is crispy!

Overall, All the dishes were above the average, except that 酸辣菜is common for me! The boss were friendly, their service is good. Everyone should just come and try by yourself!

I am seriously getting excited while composing this. Let me start off with something negative, it cost us Rm 31.70 for the entire meal with 2 Teh Ais included.
FIrst time eating on table, not literally, but with a layer of aromatic banana leaf to serve it. Seriouslly, I don't find it any different eating on banana leaf or plate. But there is one moment, I accidentally poke the leaf, and a smell like mint, pleasantly waft into my nose.
Serving with 4 vegetarian dishes including yogurt cucumber salad, cabbage, koottu, and okra (lady's finger). Fried crackers knwon as Pa padum, and fried chicken (choose between fish or chicken) in huge portion.
This is for what Banana Leaf Rice, we also ordered Rasem and Moru (in Tamil) aka Lassi. Generally, all the dishes are heavily flavourful, it was not only tantalizing your taste bud, but your 5 senses. But none of this dishes are super spicy, so I can still go on with it, but teh ais is sickly sweet, recommend not to order sweet drink when you go with this, because it make me full at the half way of eating. Would rather drink plain water to pair with it, since I have rasem and moru already.
The moru is enchancing the appetite as ti taste sour, but rasem also sour what. The rasem unlike the typical one (where you can see through the bottom of the soup), the rasem here is thick, taste nice, but still prefer the typical one.

Eating in open air can be quite irritating, luckily there are air-conditional room to fit their patrons.
Verdict:
This restoran is quite desolate, but it's easily available on any road navigation apps. Damage RM 31.70 for this tantalizing gastronomical experience, their portion is huge it last 5 hours for me. Would still coming once in every blue moon!

Cafe 9 is a Thai restaurant, that establish itself in Jalan University, Petaling Jaya, since May 2014. It's a family restaurant that hired local Thai chef for the cooking. Here, you got to savour the authentic thai food without need to purposely go Thailand.

 
You may have heard about Cafe 9, if you were active in PJ area, if you haven't then you should checked this out. A restaurant serving delectable Thai cuisine.

 
Found this right after the entrance, they do serve this beverage in Cafe 9.

 
I am absolutely love their welcome soup. It's a sour in an appetizing way, serve hot, soup but in a cup. I actually request for 2nd cup cause I like this kind of taste. By the way, it is subject on the invidual, I felt like I am the only one who is cray cray about the welcome soup. This soup also has a taste of Thai Fish Sauce inside. I personally don't like the taste of fish sauce, but this is good.

 

 
Boy friend ordered Latte, and it comes with cute Latte Art! Using Thai Coffee Beans

 
Guava Asam Boi

 
Miang Kam (Betel Leaf Appetiser) - RM15.90

Perhaps this is my first time trying some thai leaf appetiser, I didn't expect much on the appetiser. When I saw the presentation, I thought that the salad is not as crunchy as expected. But this appetiser was surprising delicious!

Sauteed dry shrimp, roasted peanut, coconut flake are all fried before serving. Using the Betel Leaf put all the rest of the element, chili padi, lime,ginger, onion and homemade special sauce, wrapping it all, and put into your mouth, munch it and you find assortment of various texture inside! The raw onion is not that spicy as I expected. The homemade special sauce(serving hot) (the lady boss told us different chef would make a different Miang Kam sauce)totally enhance the wrapping.

1.

 
Coriander Lala Rm 16

I couldn't stop eating this , cause it's a choice of less spicy, and feel like more healthy in someway, haha.

 
Thai Hot Basil Fish Rm 40 (4 pax). Rm 49 (6-8 pax)

I not sure if Basil has a lot of bones to pick up or not, but this dishes is certainly a delight to see. Simply take the fish pieces, take some of the vege that come along if you like it. It's so delicious!

 
Thai Omelette Rm 10.90

Looking ordinary, but I enjoy each of the dishes including this plain looking omelette. Initially, I thought the chef has putting some milk into the omelette, but no milk is putting. The way the chef fry using big wok and toss it while frying made this omelette extra fluffy.

VERDICT

Overall, all the dishes serving to us on the day are so delicious. We can really see how the chef is customise each of the dishes that give me surprise, like the crunchiness in the salad, and how much effort they use to prepare the Basil fish. I feel like the description that I put after each food photo is really an understatement. You should really give this restaurant a try, and ask for more spicy if you like it. There is some extra delicious in each of the dishes. Even the plain-looking omelette is so fluffy that it surprise me.

You can scroll to the bottom of this post, to see one of the offer that is Rm 40 for 2 person which is quite attractive for me. Come have a try on their food with this damn worthy combo.

Environment

 
Open daily, except Tuesday.

This restaurant also accustom to customer. You can bring fish from outside, to let the chef cook. It's a pork free restaurant, if you were muslim who is not too particular, this is where you can try on authentic Thai Food. Fret not, even the Thai Fish sauce they used is certified halal.

Whereas for those who drink wine, you can bring your wine here, cause there already have the wine to cater your wine drinking session.

 
Wifi , equipped, come here for a taste of Thai , for family, corporate catering or just couple to have lunch, dinner. This has nothing much to do with us, the people who come here to eat, It's actually the place where the waitress prepare beverages. Photo taken by boy friend, Cafe 9 is so easy to find, and it's located at the corner of shoplot.Found out this before I left. It's only Rm 35-45 for 2 person, which is damn worthy, esp after I tried their fish cake, and Tom yum,I know the price is damn worthy~~

On one free weekday, I make my way, I have been long for their salad everytime when I saw chai bar. Since It was offpeak time, I use an apps knowns as offpeak to get cheaper price. 

Instead of getting a small salad for Rm 13.90 , I got it at Rm 11.80. Save on Rm 2.10

 
Here, you can choose to make you own salad or choose from the existing creation. There is total 10 combination recommended by the restaurant. 

Small Rm 13.90
Regular Rm 17.90
Large Rm 22.90

 
I chose grilled chicken for the protein, so here it is, serving hot grilled chicken. THe one that I have gotten is chicken breast, not sure everyone got the same or not, but it is fat free for my grilled chicken
it is assortment of all the healthy snacks, and abundant

it is assortment of all the healthy snacks, and abundant

 
make-your-my own salad Rm 13.90

you can choose to mix and match the salad by yourself. Below is the ingredients that I chose for my own salad

Base: Romaine Lettuce

Supplements: Raisins, TOmato, Hard boiled egg, beetroot, baby potatoes

Proteins: Grilled Chicken, (initially, I wanted to add on Salmon, but luckily I didn't, it is too much I almost couldn't finish.)

Toppings: Roasted Seaweed

Dressing: Roasted Sesame
the roasted seaweed make me drool

I think variety is the reason why people make their way here. You can choose among so many ingredients. that make it easier to mix and match. Not forget that the portion is very huge. 

Needless to comment on the dressing, cause they used the japanase roasted sesame sauce you can't go wrong with it's savoury aroma. 
quite a big chunks for each of the part and parcel

quite a big chunks for each of the part and parcel

 
I whine a big for their big chunks size of each ingredients, would prefer to take the staff there to cut it smaller. Imagine that when you want to consume it, then you need to cut it smaller before entering your mouth~~ 
and to pair up with roasted sesame sauce!

and to pair up with roasted sesame sauce!

 
Overall, it's a recommended place for a wholesome salad. No worry, it's not only for snack, but main meal also. Considering the one that I order is small size, so you can imagine that big size would be fit for 2 people.

Ali, mUthu, Ah Hock is another restaurant that served tradisional Malaysian cuisine like Nasi Lemak, asam Laksa, chee cheong fan, chicken porridge, curry chicken with bread and so on. 

Locating at the Corner of Capital 2 (aka BLock B) in Oasis Square, Ara Damansara, it's not very hot during the hot day in the afternoon. SOmehow the shadow of high rise office tower help to share peole there. 

THe environment is country feel, back to 50S when Ali, Muthu and Ah Hock are friends. Which explain, it has all the Malay, Indian and Chinese street food. under one roof. Most of the food here were Rm 8. Let's look at the pic, shall we? 

 
Nasi Lemak Ayam Rm 9.50. I not sure if this is the signature dish of the restaurant, cause it is the most ordered one. Haven try it, because I don't want to eat Nasi Lemak for lunch, which later cause me sleepy more. 

 
Nasi Goreng Cina Rm 8. Just an ordinary Fried Rice with fried egg. Nasi Goreng Kampung Rm 8

I like this one more than Nasi GOreng CIna, it is mid spicy. 

 
Nyonya Laksa RM 8
the layer of oil on top is a bit thick, the added of "lemak' inside enhance the laksa! yummy. best eat when hot. SO far I like Nyonya Laksa more than the 3 dishes above. 

 
ALso, I like that they provide re-useable plastic tupperware, when I need to take-away, without extra charge. So environment friendly. This is one of the reason I like them. In case if all the food above, dont serve you right, here is the menu, you will found some Malaysian traditionsal dishes that you like! eventually!
