Clay Pot Lou Shu Fan
I got the burst tires fixed early the next morning and it was a massive RM600 blow to my already flatten wallet. Nonetheless, I still went ahead with my plans after the mechanics gave me 2 tires temporarily while they got the tires fixed.
Previously on “Nasi Lemak” (Prison Break tone), Suthing (婷婷**), Sook Ying (Mei Mei) and I agreed to meet up for lunch and Suthing would bring us to a restaurant at Serdang that is famous for its clay pot lou shu fan.
What I heard from my cousin brother (Kelvin Leoh) was that the lou shu fan is cooked in a very thick broth, so thick as if you are eating shark fin soup or something like that. Well, that was what my cousin brother told me. Not to mention, it came highly recommended from him. When Suthing pointed out the direction to the restaurant, I only realized the restaurant is just 1km away from Ah Kit’s apartment (my “hotel”).
Suthing ordered a claypot lou shu fan, honey roasted pork ribs, black pepper udon noddles and kam heong prawns.
The black pepper udon noodles didn’t taste really good as it was cooked ala hokkien mee style. There were no black pepper taste at all. The difference lied within the noodles used. It was thicker and more Q than the yellow noodles. I saw many tables ordered this dish but to me, I don’t really recommend it. I ended up adding a lot of the given sambal and at least, it tasted much better. The sambal was heavily mixed with belacans, very salty but nice.
The kam heong prawns didn’t taste like kam heong. It tasted more like garlic heong prawns. The amount of garlics put inside the dish could easily kill a vampire. Nonetheless, I absolutely loved it because I love garlics. Nice, delicious, crunchy, fragrant but oily, very oily. Other than that, it’s nice.
The honey roasted pork ribs were absolutely finger licking good. The fragrant smell of sweet honey definitely opened up my appetite. Sweet on the outside and juicy on the inside. I got to say, they really put a lot of effort to marinate the pork ribs. It takes time to get the pork ribs to absorb the honey’s taste, you do know that, don’t you? However, Mei Mei didn’t like it though. She was commenting something about the pork, which I have forgotten what was it.
Last but not least, their signature dish, clay pot lou shu fan. The gravy soup was really thick, a mixture of soup, corn flour, lots of eggs, minced meat and mushrooms, garnished with spring onions and a few dashes of sesame oil. The closest taste that I can use to describe the soup is a thick chicken porridge with lots of eggs inside. Despite the small size of the clay pot, it was very filling for all three of us.
The lunch cost Suthing RM35, reasonably priced, I would say. This got to be the second nicest lou shu fan dish after SS2 Murni’s.
Thanks, Suthing!
Apparently, Snowybabie was having lunch at the same restaurant too! Yet, she didn’t come up to say “Hi!”. Damn shit, right? She should be prosecuted!
Next time, if anyone of you happen to see me at anywhere, anytime with anyone, do come up to say “Hi!” lah! Bloggers meet bloggers, nothing to be shy about what!
