Sun Fong Restaurant, Kuantan

The Star City area in Kuantan is relatively ‘new’ and has lots of makan places as well as boutiques. We drove around looking for something to eat at quarter to 12. The shutters of Sun Fong were three quarter open & we waited until 12 noon for them to be completely open.

The walls on the left and right of the restaurant were filled with photos of food, many of which are their signature dishes.

We ordered 6 dishes :-

Salted vegetable soup  (RM10) – what I liked about this soup was that it was cooked in the traditional Cantonese way i.e it had asam boi in it to give the soup an extra oomph!

This is called Australian ribs (RM28) – the sauce was sweet and this blended very well with the tender ribs.

Stir fried yau mak (RM10) & choy sum (RM8) – both the vegetable dishes were superb. The vegetables were cooked just fine – not overcooked nor too raw.

This dish was something really unique – prawn fillet with macademia nuts in orange sauce. Initially we were quite sceptical about this dish, but I must say it was pleasantly delicious.  Now I know that macademia and orange could make prawns so delectable.

Steamed garoupa  fish –nyonya style (RM60) – I  was shocked at the price of this dish as the fish wasn’t that big. However, credit must be given where it is due – the gravy was simply wonderful and the crunchy pieces of okra added the extra boost to the entire platter.

  In conclusion, I would say that the food here is excellent, but a little pricey.
