Kau Yuk Meehoon, RM25, quite nice actually, although the meat is probably canned
Worth mentioning would be the sang meen (freshly made) noodles with spare ribs. Sweet broth is healing food for the soul and body. Soup was full-bodied yet retained the simple sweetness.
The owner, Kau Kiah is very particular about the ingredients that he uses. So despite being a little pricier than the other restaurants of the same class, you definitely get what you pay for, and let me just say that it’s worth it. Most of the seafood restaurants in KL usually import large mangrove crabs from Indonesia, but Kau Kiah prefers to use local ones all the way from Sabah. Since the crab is monstrous, it’s not surprising that they cost RM140/kg. When you have a crab so fresh, steaming it is a no-brainer and possibly the best way to cook it too.
Claypot Creamy Curry Prawn 瓦煲奶油咖哩大头虾 The big prawn head was really fat and huge. Coated with sinful and creamy buttery curry sauce. a must to order as this is another signature of this restaurant. But don’t be as greedy as us, ordering one prawn for each pax. A prawn can be shared between 2 unless you can finish one by yourself along with other dishes.
We highly recommend Restaurant Pak Thong for its siong tong lala, steamed crab, braised pork and ginger fried rice – must order. However, we will have to warn you about the restaurant’s surroundings as it is located right next to the wet market. Remember to ask for a table in the air conditioned section.
