Restoran Three Brothers.

Restoran Three Brothers is nestled among factories and 
shop houses off the main Sungei Buluh - Subang road.

The most recognizable place from the main road is Star Avenue
or a KFC 500th restaurant.

A hidden gem as some people called them - they serve Chinese cuisine
with some fusion styles with fresh and quality seafood...etc.

We drove here from PJ to have our lunch, scanned through the menu and
decided to have something light and comforting.

First -Fresh Australian oysters as big as our palm - add a squeeze of lemon
to flavor it - so creamy, briny and fresh tasting.

Then - Scrambled eggs with crab meat, it was rather dry but good wei - wrapped 
in fresh lettuce with some house made red chillies sauce to fully savored 
bite after bite.   

We ended the meal with the potent claypot free range chicken in rice wine.
You get the "high heaty feel" and red face after a couple of minutes 
of slurping the gingery soup.

Overall a great and affordable meal.

RESTORAN YEE HEONG-SANG KUAT (BAK KUT TEH)

Restoran Yee Heong is one of my favorite place for fresh Pork ribs Bak Kut Teh, one of the best in Bandar Puchong Jaya, Puchong.

The restaurant is a corner shoplot and can be very hot during the lunch hour because the shop faces North with the hot afternoon sun beaming right into the side of the shop from the East.

The heat was no damper as business was good and customers were prepare to sweat a bit after the meal.

Parking is hell, most customers double parked.

Tea leaves and tea paraphernalia displayed are for sale.

KEDAI KOPI BAN KEE-CHICKEN RICE AND THE ART OF FILLETING AND COOKING EEL.

Kedai Kopi Ban Kee is a spacious coffee shop with a Wan Ton Mee stall (in the morning) and a Tai Chow (till night).
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!

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.

RESTORAN WAI KEE.

When I yearn for home cooked style food, Restoran Wai Kee is number one on my list.
Their specialty are Hakka and local food like Yong Tau Foo, Chicken rice wine, boiled free range Chicken, Curry Fish head, Char Yok, Mui Choy Kow Yok...etc.

I eat here at least once a month and the food have always been consistent.
The place is a typical neighborhood coffee shop with no airs about it.
The kitchen with an open window is situated at the rear end of the shop and are helm by a team of able, fabulous and great women chefs.
This restaurant is family owned and the father and daughter take turns to take orders plus they are very accommodating and friendly too!

Parking is hell, most customers park by the road side, hopefully when Tesco open beside it, parking will not be a problem!

Dining alfresco outside.
