Restaurant Woo Ng Kee
Traditional red table cloths
Look at the old-school tiles ~ O.O
Normally a restaurant with such “traditional” setting won’t ignite my interest to dine in. BUT when the particular restaurant have been operate for more than 60 years for 3 generations, it’s different story 😛
There must be something special in the restaurant, something that intrigued my curiosity to find out, so I’m here, Restaurant Woo Ng Kee at Taman Ehsan, Kepong.
The owner, Mr Woo Hee Chow proudly show us the old photo of him and his father with row of ducks dried under the sun.
七彩大冷盘 -Traditional Cold Platter (RM70.00-80.00)
The presentation definitely a sight to behold. Made from big prawns, poached village chicken and sliced abalone set with a dome shape gelatinous layer and garnished with century eggs & picked ginger.
Special tangy & sweet sauce pouring onto it to enhance the flavors.
Cross section
桂花翅 – Scrambled Egg with Shark Fin (RM 30.00 & above)
This used to be my favorite classic dish which I only can have it when attending Chinese wedding banquet. Artificial shark fin was used for Woo Ng Kee version, thumbs up to the owner for supporting “No Shark Fin” Campaign!
Fresh lettuce to eat together with the scrambled egg.
3 Style Pomfret (RM 170.00 & above)
Is it wonderful if we can try 3 different methods of cooking with only 1 fish!
Thin sliced fish rolled over strips of vegetables then steamed with silky smooth egg. A piece of gastronomical art which need a lot of effort & skills.
Other smaller flesh which can’t use for above cooking style will stir fried with black pepper & diced onions which created a burst of flavors.
Nothing is wasting here, even the bone!
Fried until crispy, very addictive as I had a few helping of that. Nom nom…. ^_-
琵琶鸭 – Pei Pa Roasted Duck (RM 38.00 whole duck)
The duck was flatten before roasting. Delectable crispy skin is the most important requirement for me for roasted duck, Woo Ng Kee version pass the test for sure!
Glistening skin with tender meat underneath, delicious & indulgent~
铁板西贡虾球 – Sizzling Saigon Prawns (RM 18.00 & above)
Bouncy prawns drenched in sauce with concoction flavors of sweet, sour & spicy. Copper plate was use instead of cheaper iron plate where the former is rust free & long lasting.
咸蛋肉碎豆腐 – Salted Egg Minced Meat Tofu (RM 10.00 & above)
Silken smooth white tofu topped with salted egg, minced meat & dried shrimp. Had strong flavors that we, Malaysian taste buds are fond of.
红烧猪手 – Braised Pork Knuckle (RM 35.00 half portion, RM 70.00 full portion)
The gargantuan pork knuckle was braised for a few hours rendering the soft & fork-tender texture. Albeit the “fat” looking, it didn’t cloying at all! My companions enjoyed mopped the gelatinous gravy with the steam mantou.
Some of the dishes above need advance booking, please call before come.
This caught my attention when I’m about to leave ~ Special recommendation with a special name -> “Pig Dog Friend” ^____^ I’ll come back to find out what is this!
