Kota Kemuning "makan place"



I have been staying in Kota Kemuning for the past 5 years now. From the first day i move in to this township, my quest for good food around this area went into top gear. Food to a Penangite is "very important" I bet you heard so many Penangite first step in to KL and they will complain "aiyeh...kl food beh chiak one"

How true is that statement! Since Kota Kemuning is so isolated on its own, being the nearest place with food options is in Subang Jaya(forget about Shah Alam la...the food here is so pathetic) or Klang, its been many torturing years before a "proper" tasting restaurant open his door in KK. The first one is "ta shu Sia"(literally it translated to "under the big tree") Bak kut Teh. This BKT shop is above average and they serve a variety of other dishes too during lunch time. But everyday BKT will make you looks like the main ingredient of the dish. not very healthy i would say.

Later a small restaurant comes to our quiet township(4 years after i move in..sigh!). It is call "OCEAN POINT RESTAURANT". This joint serve mainly seafood base dishes...

oh mine...the seafood is so fresh even you dun see all the fishes swimming in the tank. They have locally"tangkap" seafood most of the day and i really respect their seafood source!

Make sure you ask for what is "in" today before ordering. the seafood is simple stuff(no 7 stars groupa, mice/mouse groupa or sou mei kind of stuff, but they do have locally tangkap fish like "bawal hitam" "red snapper or OR tiam(black spot), and the small part(Phi).

the seafood is so fresh that u even can steam "bawal hitam" u try to order steam "bawal hitam" in other restaurant and see what is the respond! Steam Pari is also one of the must order.

Dishes i highly recommend : "steam fish with soya sauces(any fish will do, but i highly recommend the pari), the "ham hiong" dishes(meat or seafood cook in salted egg), their homemade fishballs and "yeong fu chuk" "yu tau mi" comes with 3 type of soup base.

be daring to try out their dishes and reccomendation too...i bet you wont be dissapointed.

I will try to take some photo of the dishes next time i patronised this restaurant again.

yes, this is my favourite seafood joint, right in the heart of KK.
