BKT is ubiquituous in Klang, maybe new shops selling BKT mushrooms every month..
For someone who's not local, I am lucky to have a few kakis who stay in Klang.. so I get to savour some pretty ok BKT last weekend
The very succulent BKT!
I guess this is a rather famous shop in Klang.. I reached there around 11 am, and man, it was full house.. guess there's loads of porky fellas in klang ;p.
The pot we ordered was filled to the brim with pork ribs(pai guat), semi fat pork(sam chang yuk) and some lean meat. They were rather generous with the bean-curd skin(foo chook) and mushrooms too. The meat was very tender, pratically melts off the bones! Could see that it was boiled for many hours, as the meat has absorbed all the herb flavours. To me, the fried doughstick(yau char guai) is a must with BKT, as it really enhances the overall taste of the meal :p. Am very glad to say that they serves fresh doughsticks there (yay!). As for the soup, its pretty good stuff, infused with sweetness from the meat and aftertaste of the herbs..quite the power ler..
My gripe? You must down the soup really fast, coz when the soup turns luke warm, it tends to taste really salty. Also, dont ever sit near the walls. ever. theres this giant spider (the size of my palm!!!) that kept crawling from one end to the other all the time(maybe looking for its mate).. really gives me the creeps...
The shop is call Weng Heong, Jalan Batai Laut 5, Taman Rasnah area, Klang.
After hanging out in Klang for a couple of hours, my fren brought us to another place to try out assam laksa. He calls the area Utophia, I really dont know the real name of the place.. only know its a new area in Klang, next to Bandar Botanic.
Pak Li's Assam laksa
The shop is called Pak Li. Looks like the modern kopitiam, with new furnishings which sadly trying to imitate to look like an old kopitiam (huh?). yea, sometimes i dont get myself either..They sell the usual roti bakar, nasi lemak, mee goreng, assam laksa etc.. I had the assam laksa with cendol. The assam laksa stock came out rather spicy, but to my dissapointment, the soup was not the murky type (those cooked with mince fish meat), instead we get clear assam laksa soup. The cendol was ok, coz we get to add as much gula melaka as we like. Still the gula melaka was not fragrant nor thick enuff for me :(
So there, thats my makan time in Klang for now.. will try to go there soon for another round!! hahahaha
