Soon Hock-Marble Goby.

Soon Hock a.k.a. Marble Goby (Oxyeleotis marmorata) is a slow, quiet and sluggish fresh water fish.

It spend most it's time half buried at the shallow end of brackish fresh water ponds or waterways to wait for it's prey.

A very elusive fish for even the real seasoned anglers !

A much sought and expensive fish in most Chinese restaurants and costs between Rm100-Rm250/kg.

I like the Soon Hock fish for it's smooth, sweet, flaky and fine texture flesh.

One of the best and tastiest fresh water fish. 

Wat Tan Hor with Prawns.

For lunch, if I eat alone I usually will go for noodles-like mee sua, rice vermicelli or kwai teow.

I like to mix and match the noodles in different styles with various ingredients so that I would not be bored eating it.

This husband/wife noodle stall owners have become my good friends-so they are very accommodating.


Today, I have Wat Tan Hor with sea prawns (Flat rice noodle with egg gravy)

Fresh and juicy sea prawns with the Wat Tan Hor-Rm8/

Location: stall in Restoran Happy O,
Pandan Perdana, Cheras.

Chinese New Year is around the corner !

When my mum cooks lap cheong (pork sausage), yuan cheong (liver sausage with traces of Chinese wine) and Foshan's string tied pig trotter for dinner-it signal that Chinese New Year is around the corner !

The Foshan's string tied pig trotter skin was jelly-like and the meat was fragrant with hint of 5 spice powder/salt-A must for every Chinese household on reunion dinner.

Wild Frogs.

Wild frogs are mostly found in the smaller town of Malaysia and is a delicacy among the Chinese people.
Most restaurants get their supplies from the Orang Asli who catches them for a living along riverbanks when edible fruits like durians and petai are not in season.
Prices for these wild frogs are very lucrative because demand exceed supply !

The Chinese believe that wild frog has detoxing medicinal values and is good for skin's complexion, too.

For me, I like it to be freshly skin/clean and steam instead of stir fry-for it's freshest, juicy essence and sweetness .


It is one of my all time favorite dish.

Steamed with superior soy sauce/blended ginger and garnished with chopped spring onion.

Stir fried with sliced ginger/chopped spring onion.
