Tanjung Sepat, a small fish village located at southwest part of Selangor. Tanjung Sepat becoming a tourist attraction after commercialize seafood restaurants open in this area. Nowadays, people came here for fresh seafood and various orchards farms, including Dragon Fruits Longan, mushroom and Ganoderma (Chinese Ling Zhi) farm.

My sister is having her maternity leave and resting at her parent in law place in Tanjung Sepat. Family and I pay her a visit during the last weekend. Unlike other visitor to Tanjung Sepat, we didn't visit to those places, we just have simple meal instead.

Having our lunch at Restoran Hong Seng Bay Seafood. It's was around 1:30pm, there are 4 buses stop in front.

This is not the most famous restaurant in this area yet it's full house during the lunch time. Food wise, it taste reasonable good. I truly believe their pricing is reasonable as well (brother in-law pay for it :D). These are what we had.


I like this fried oyster. You see a lot of tiny yet juicy oyster fried with egg and batter base. Unlike the usual fried oyster I had in seafood restaurant in Port Klang. Normal seafood restaurant pan fried the oyster with flour and eggs, where this one doesn't has flour at all.



After the lunch, go to the famous Hai Yew Hin to buy the Hainanese style steamed Chinese buns.


You can see the cloud in the photos, and everyone is carrying a bag of pau in hand. During the weekday, they sell over thousand buns in a day, weekend is out of imagination, tour buses is sending tourists for huge purchase. Something must be special right?


The buns is handmade, I reckon the the dough is not make from the usual all-purpose flour, look at the pau color, is natural yellowish (normal pau has whitening). The bun is soft yet does not stick on teeth.

The bun's filling is make from lean meat mostly, yet it is not dry. According to Tanjung Sepat resident, Hai Yew Hin's pau taste better last time.


According to a uncle who sell fish ball in Hai Yew Hin, the buns business boost another 80% after the fat boy visit. This 3 "Hong Kong Eat King" posters is a good advertisement.

Have Bak Kut Teh brunch with old schoolmates. Caker asked what other nice food does Klang has?! It's a good question indeed, I'm Pasankia yet most of the food I mentioned in my blog are KL and PJ's food. Mentos said Xuan Gong(璇宫) pork ribs can be consider, I agreed that.

A lot of Klang Chinese will know Xuan Gong pork ribs, but most of the people do not aware the actual name is Peng Heong, that is because Peng Heong Hakka Restaurant is located at the next to Seri Intan Cienema and the cinema's Chinese name is Xuan Gong(璇宫). Xuan Gong was popular in the old day. Like all other old style cinema, Xuan Gong is fighting for surviving these day.

Due to hygienic reason, my family do not come to this place often. However on my recent visit I notice their tableware and cutlery is cleaner than last, yet location wise is still a problem, as it's located at road side. Dine with my family, 5 of us.

This is the pork ribs which Peng Heong is famous for. This Pork ribs also known as pork loin rib chop or "Pai Kuat Wong" in Cantonese. Seriously, I've never taste a better pork rib chop than this. The meat is sweet and so tender. The chef must be marinate the rib in long hours before frying it. You can notice every table has order a plate of this pork rib chop.


Hakka clay pot vinegar pork leg is another popular item. It doesn't surprise me, even though we ordered every time we are here.


We order this clay pot chicken curry, my complain is too oily. You can see from the picture, there are so much chili oil floating. The other dislike is the cutting, some of the chicken has very big cut.

Vegetable, quite fresh. Just light boil in water and serve with mixture soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame sauce and top with shallot crisp. Besides the dishes above, Peng Heong do serve other food like mutton curry, asam kampung fish, roasted chicken.

Peng Heong special make chili sauce, light spicy, sour and sweat. The reason I mentioned here is usual chili sauce on the table are quite watery. For their usual customer, they serve with "special" chili sauce. The picture shown is the "special" one. The special version is thicker than normal. I didn't taste the normal chili sauce, I think the differences is watery vs thicker. Try to request on your next visit, they might give you.

Not forget to mentioned the soy drink, just like home make, soy bean and sugar, nothing more. It's fresh. Total damage: RM46.00

Peng Heong Hakka Paikut Restaurant is quite hard to find if you're not familiar with Klang. Ask Chinese about Xuan Gong Cinema, they will tell you.

I found this special flower during my time in London. Don't know what's the name.

Update 8/11/2006: Thanks Jasmine for the comment, the flower called Passion Flower

Eatinout told me Tony Roma's has opened in Sunway Pyramid. What a surprise, thought to go with Tekko, but end up I go myself without him, sorry Tekko, we'll go again.

I didn't plan to go Tony Roma's initially. I have a dinner appointment with JC, and we meet up almost at Buka Puasa time. It was bad timing, all restaurants was full. We end up at Tony Roma's.

Tony Roma's is famous all over the world for their flame grilled ribs. I have put a lot of expectation for this outlet. However then when I read the menu, I was kind of disappointed. Only 2 kinds of ribs (beef ribs) in the menu and the world's famous Baby Back Ribs is not in the menu, OMG! This must be a HALAL restaurant!

Anyway, we still dine in Tony Roma's. The light in the restaurant was quite dim; I did not manage to catch a nice shot. Let see what we had..

We have the Onion Loaf as starter. It's Spanish onions coat with bread crumbs, deep fried and served with BBQ dipping sauce. I reckon this is a nice one, the onion taste natural sweet.


We choose mashed potatoes and coleslaw as the side dishes, from the picture you can see the serving is not too large, in fact I was quite full after the meal. The boneless rib claimed to be the first in Malaysia where serve rib without bone. The ribs is marinated with TR's sauce and grilled until tender, it's just nice. But then when talk about nice ribs, it's better to be pork ribs.



I've this Martini called Cosmopolitan, It was drink of the day, the usual price was RM 22.90. Cosmopolitan is classic martini mixed with ABSOLUT CITRON, Contreau, and cranberry juice, not bad.

Conclusion: if you like beef ribs, Tony Roma's at Sunway Pyramid is a good try. If you looking for pork, Checkers at Bukit Damansara still a better one.

For those who read my previous post, I being through a tragedy with my car. Since then, the car is troubling me...

Finally, I've resolve all the problem for good. I've trade in my old car to get a new ride, power with this Honda L15A VTEC engine.

Update 2/10/2006: It's a Honda City VTEC.

Asia Cafe food court has been mentioned many time among blogger and forums. I probably very late in blogging this. When I read boo_licious post few months back, I've already decided to go this place after once I return. I managed to pay a visit finally.

I like dumpling. This one taste really good and better still, it selling at very reasonable price. I hope the owner would have make the dumpling skin slightly thinner and that will be fantastic.


The Guo Tie is delicious too, the meat is sweet and juicy, my only complain is it fried with too much of oil. I prefer the guo tie from crystal jade, but then course crystal jade is selling the dumpling at 2x expensive than this.


I also ordered La Mian in hot and spicy soup from the same stall. This is not spicy enough.


Deep fried chicken breast remind me the time I had in Taipei's night market. It's originated from Taiwan and it's available in all the night market there. It's a big piece of chicken breast, dip in batter make from flour, peppercorns, cornstarch and etc, then deep fried. When biting it, it should feel soft, not as dry as ordinary chicken breast.

I don't see much people is selling this in Klang Valley, I normally would order this if I have the chance. Howerver, this deep friend chicken breast at Asia Cafe is not as good as I hope for. I suddenly feel like having KFC Hot & Spicy extra. :p
