I’ve always been told that to identify a good restaurant
all you need to do is to follow the crowd –meaning that you take a look at the
number of customers eating in the restaurant, and if there are plenty of
customers, that would NORMALLY mean that the food that is alright. And that was
how I ended up at Kar Heong in SS14 Subang Jaya.
Without the slightest idea of what I was in for, I
parked my car a few lots away and walked in. As I walked in I saw roasted pork,
char siew and chicken –oh, a chicken rice shop in a row of shops that has
countless number of bak kut teh shops!
One plus point of Kar Heong is that it has air conditioning
, and this makes it a pleasant place to dine in as the day was rather hot.
Half a kampong chicken is priced at RM26. The smooth
texture of the chicken skin was to die for. I really loved the taste of this
chicken when eaten with oil rice (RM1.20 a bowl) . To enhance the taste of the
chicken I just had to put lashings after lashings of their specially made
chilli sauce.
This is hor fan with prawn wanton (RM6.50)– the broth
was delicious and you can easily tell that lots of chicken bones have been put
in to make this broth what it was.
Roasted pork and char siew (RM13) – with a tinge of sweetness and
saltiness and a combination of fat and lean meat, this dish was alright.
Pork balls in broth (RM8) – 10 pork balls in a
nutritious broth –well, that says it all.
Ipoh bean sprouts (RM4) – short, thick and crunchy.
The one thing that confuses me here at Kar Heong is
their staff – at times I was just tongue tied as I did not know what language
to use to communicate with them – er….English can? Bahasa? Mandarin? Cantonese?
……..err…let me figure that out!
