After the left turn at the Banting/Klang interchange, the country road was scenic but uneven and bumpy with lots of bridge and road humps.
On our left were vegetables and Dragon fruit farms while the left side were kampung houses dotted with warong.
Property development are slowly creeping into this sleepy side of Klang like Bayuemas.
Restoran Kang Guan have been in the seafood restaurant business for about 51 years !
This established restaurant is situated on the left, just before the Pulau Carey bridge.
It is built on stilts made from mangrove wood and planks-spacious with open sides, red cloth covered tables, plastic chairs and ceiling fans for comfort.
We have a good view of lush green mangrove trees and the swift flowing river meandering out to the sea.
Plastic reservation stand with names of big corporations hung near a counter means daily regular dining clients.
A sour faced waitress took our order-a real put off- luckily the food tasted great and was fairly priced!
The entrance to the restaurant.
View of Mangrove trees opposite from where we were seated.
The river meandering out to sea.
The bridge to Pulau Carey on our left.
Those guys on the boat were fishing.

Interesting that some of the plates look like banana leaf. Oh... and the coconut still got the flesh on the top?
we have not been back since dunno when but thinks this place is average in everything, but with a great river ambience which they are not really able to capitalise, since they have a far away from everywhere disadvantage
I love the green views. Look so amazing with Yam Basket sound delicious...I like fried noodle with dark soy sauce my parents often cooked for me when I was very young.:)
