For those living in KL/PJ area, you might have heard of Ah Lye Curry Fish head in SS19, Subang Jaya before. Many do not know that they originated from Taiping and Aun Loke is the "mothership" here in Pokok Assam area.

Probably my favorite eatery I've...

Sweet & sour meat but they did not defrost the meat before cook, caused it hard to chew. The sauce too sour, might added too much...
