ZONG MENG RESTAURANT-2

Zong Meng Restaurant is located in Tapah, Perak, a quiet town between Bidor and Kampar. The site of the restaurant was formerly a petrol station, now converted into an open eatery with overhead ceiling fans (can be very hot in the afternoon) for comfort and vehicles viewing while waiting to be serve .
The owner cum cook, Meng has many years of culinary experiences and worked with chefs from Hong Kong at Chinese restaurants in Holland and Belgium.
While overseas, he was more into fusion Chinese cuisine, the influences are evident in some of his dishes.
It was fun to see him flipped and cooked with his pan/wok and the way he controlled the many gas knobs with his knees was awesome!!!
He is a staunch believer in using fresh ingredients and do not compromise on quality.
He recommended us some of his signature dishes.

KAM KEE SEAFOOD RESTAURANT

We have not been to this restaurant for quite some time. It is a quaint little place, one storey and located in Taman Petaling, Petaling Jaya. Opposite the restaurant is the site where they used to have the bird's singing competition. They have the usual red cloth for it's tables and even some pictures of a popular Taiwanese composer patronizing the place. The air conditioned room was packed, luckily we'd made a reservation. The waiter recommended their signature dishes:

Salted fish with pork belly: portion too small

Four types of beans : sambal was too salty

Steamed sliced snakehead fish with black beans:meat texture was too soft

Stir fried choy sam : leafy and crunchy

Steamed beancurd with fish paste:the gravy was good and the bean curd smooth.

Marmite pork ribs:was overdone until you cannot tell the difference between meat and bones.

total bill:rm135/
