It is located near the traffic light junction off Jalan Timur and Jalan Pahang in Tapah town, Perak.
The Tai Chow is run by a husband and wife team with the help of a server.
Their specialty are local Chinese cuisine with wild Frog, Eel and Haruan (Snakehead fish) as their bestsellers.
I had my lunch of a plate of chicken rice and a rare opportunity to watch the stall owner-Lor Chor filleted an Eel (Belut) and cooked it, too!
Front view of the shop.
BBQ chicken, Char Siew and roast Pork-all in a row.
Chicken rice-breast area-with a glossy skin, tender and meaty with chopped Cucumber and tasty sauce-Rm3/
Eel (Belut)-Padi field's variety-chop off the head and scald it with hot water for a few seconds then clean off the sticky scum from it's body.
Fillet it with a sharp knife.
Slice it with a slant and into bite size.
The stall owner Lor Chor stir fried the sliced Eel with tender loving care.
Stir fry eel with garlic, soy sauce and Shao Hsing Chinese wine-fresh, tender and springy-perfect with rice.

The chicken rice looks delicious. I've never seen a preparation which had cucumbers on the side. That is something new for me.

Duckie-it's a delicacy, different from what i have tasted in KL.
ETEat-cucumber has a "cooling effect" to counter the "hot" roast chicken. you must try the stir fried Eel
