ED* meet us at Kulim Petronas and 6 of us fit into his Toyata Wish (good car har which can occupy up 7 ppls). Makan-Makan journey is start…….The restaurant is situated at very “Sangkalar” (urban) place which is deep inside the oil palm plantation, you can consider this is an “Adventurous” trip too, the road is not only bumpy but very small road which its only allow for one car at ond time =P Scared of getting lost? Don’t worry, this restaurant is very famous, you’ll see a lot of signs helping you to get to the restaurant, else you simply grab one person to ask =D
From there, you can see a few huge ponds full with fishes around the shops and a few dogs that keeping away from the snakes, or fish thief? If you are unable to find a seat at the moment, you can roam around the village and enjoy the picturesque beauty of the fishing pond.
After seated, Tan* has ordered few dishes - 4 fishes and 1 Vegetable. Yes, this is really 全鱼宴, you can’t see other dishes like chicken at here, if you are chicken lover, who can’t live without the chicken one, it’s advisable to bring your self. Haha. This is what their specialty, which only have Fresh Water Fish and Vegetable (limited choice) and and and…. Flies…… Haha.
About 20mins-30mins, our dishes was served on the table. The dishes really fresh, appetizing and really make salivating everywhere.
1) 3 flavors “tilapia” Fish 三味金锋鱼
- it’s a deep fried fish with combination of 3 different taste of sauté, you can taste sweet, sour and spicy from the sauté.
2) Deep Fried “Sultan” Fish
- This is highly recommended dish and also my favorite among all. I have a very bad impression when I first look into this fish, I was wondering why this fish look soooo ugly, and does not expect it has a good taste too. Sigh, after taste it, I totally change my mind, it was really CRISPY and DELICIOUS. Conclusion is, don’t judge people by using outlook only, even the Fish… hehe.. or probably I can sing the song “我很丑，可是我很温柔…”
3) Thai Sauté “White Catfish” 泰式“白须公“
- I am the person of only know how to eat, but don’t know how to differentiate the species of either fish, vegetable, etc, except this one, as this fish got a very remarkable area which they have four pairs of barbels ("whiskers") around the mouth, two on the chin, one at the angle of the mouth, and one behind the nostril.
- The meet is very smooth, very good to eat.
4) Ginger and Garlic of “Striped Catfish” 鸳鸯Patin 鱼
- This is the steam fish with garlic and ginger. The meat is quite thick. Not bad too.
I really feel satisfaction on the dishes, no regret at all on trying this meals.
For sure I will visit this restaurant again. Not only the dishes are good, the price are reasonable too. Its only cost us about RM175 (7 ppls, 3 big bottles of herbal tea, 5 bowl of rice, 4 fishes, 1 vege), which its only RM25 per person… Good !!!! I also bought one live White Catfish for my mom and it’s only cost RM27 for 1.7kg.Group Photo
How Uncle Catch the fish live...
How I carry the fishing rod... Sigh, its heavy man...
How to get there: it’s just one straight road after taking a left turn approaching Infineon factory in Kulim Hi-Tech Park. There will be a signboard on your right after about 3 minutes drive, pretty much close to a petrol station and a few shop houses. After that, just follow the signboard and explore the single lane muddy terrain
