Loong Deng Kee at Tengkat Tong Shin and M Fragrant Salt Baked Chicken at Sri Petaling

A couple of stops in the city & the suburbs for Chinese soul food, starting with Tengkat Tong Shin’s Loong Deng Kee.

Tea and Broths

Bak kut teh and herbal broths constitute the intriguing specialities here, served out of enormous dragon-decorated pots.

Food for the Soul

A protein-rich, piping-hot portion of rib-heavy pork with intestines, sufficient for a light lunch, clocks in at RM10.

Fairly fragrant & flavoursome; could make for a satisfactory supper too, assuming Loong Deng Kee opens through late at night.

Add RM5 for rice and veggies; the free flow of chopped chillies and garlic is complimentary. 

Bouncy-smooth fish balls stuffed with meat in soup are also available.

Ipoh-style Chicken

Second stop: Sri Petaling, for M Fragrant’s Ipoh-style salt-baked chicken.

Meaty, tender and savoury but not unendurably salty; this also works for a fuss-free afternoon meal.

Inexpensive; a simple serving with rice and soup won’t breach the two-figure mark (think it was RM8).
