Bonus - Kuala Selangor detour!
On our way back to Klang Valley, I could not help but to crave for more seafood. She seemed to be in the same boat with me, so I decided to use the coastal road of Kuala Selangor on the wat instead.
We timed out journey properly and soon we arrived at our favourite seafood restaurant, Suang Le, located in Bagan Pasir which is somewhere in between Sekinchan & Pasir Penampang.
Essentially a wooden shack built on wooden platform, they have since upgraded and expanded the dining area to accommodate more diners. The availability of seafood is depending on the fishery nearby - on good days, more choices are available but do call to enquire if possible. No guarantee!
◾Salt baked mantis shrimp - we ordered 10 pieces this time to be shared by the two of us as the young ones didn't like seafood. Their loss - the meat was so succulent and sweet to sink my teeth in. I would have ordered second helping if not for other dishes. ◾Deep fried sotong 仔 - normally I would order to be cooked with sweet sauce but I wanted the regular deep fried this time. I could not stop munching. ◾Blanched cockles - her face was brimming with happiness when we were informed of the availability. Simply blanched and served with chilly sauce. Bliss! ◾Steamed flower crabs - no roe crab this time so we opted for lesser meat but sweeter flesh flower crabs. Satisfied out crab craving! ◾Stir fried vermicelly with clam 沙白 - we ate the plump and juicy clams while the young ones feast on the flavourful meehoon. ◾feel free to get a packet of their deep fried keropok to munch on while waiting for your food which could take considerable time if they are packed.
I have come here for more than 20 years and never once I left disappointed unless they ran out of seafood. Perfect conclusion my...
Read moreDODGY BEWARE TOURIST TRAP !!! Cheated ! Cooking is atrocious and roughly cook. Owner is DISHONEST when it comes to seafood and pricing . No menu given just dodgy black market from the mouth. Seafood is not fresh ( old stock) and when they see your tourist they cut throat you high prices. Steam fish head become braised chilli fish and I think to get rid of the smell. Overcooked Prawns ( not fresh and small portion) became curry sauce not butter sauce . Okra became slimy and old , little portion . Rice portion wasn’t proportion well and cold. Crab’s seasonings is black and burn with the over roasted garlic and hae bee and worst part gave you a big crab ( OLD) when we requested for small and so spicy. Lots of crows and birds around! Surrounding area filled with rubbish in the river alleys and stray dogs and owner wearing dirty clothes like kampong style . NOT RECOMMENDED ! Poor hygiene ( servers smoking in one hand and serving you food in another hand) and the chef must have left and gotten some poor inexperienced person who doesn’t know how to cook. Inflation has really kick in and I support the one star...
Read moreJust went there this afternoon for lunch with family, the old man who took our order was being really pushy, trying to get us to order crab/fish/prawns, we did not want any of that so we asked for more recommendations, and he continues to push for crab/fish/prawns, we insisted to not have any of that and ordered something else, after 15mins of waiting, we were told that one of the items that we ordered was not available, and if fish is okay as a replacement, which we already told earlier, we did not want, the old man continued to be pushy, but we insisted again that we do not want any, we then waited for an additional 45mins (1 hour total wait time after ordering), still no food arrived yet, asked the old man if the food is being prepared, and if not, then we would like to cancel and leave, he disappears again, and we finally got fed up, paid for our beers that we ordered, and left.
Came here previously and the service was bad but atleast the food came out after about 45mins of waiting, food quality and taste is good too, such a shame that this visit will...
