CA Food Enterprise @ Sunway Mentari

I heard of Johor style Bak Kut Teh before in some TV shows previously but didn't had the chance to try it out. I had traveled down South for so many times and didn't once I had BKT over there. So funny that my first taste would be in Sunway. It's a new restaurant located at Sunway Mentari. This place is serving Johor style BKT which was recommended by my ex-colleague. It's lucky that me and my ex-colleagues had a lot in common in term of food.

Bak Kut Teh with Everything - RM8/pax
There were 10 of us so we had ordered 2 pots of this BKT. The soup as you can see is quite clear compared to the one we normally had over here. The one we had over here had strong thick soy sauce taste whereas theirs are more lighter and the taste is more strong but towards herbal side. The ribs are soft and the lean and fat layer of pork are very tender.

Lettuce - RM8/Large Plate
We had ordered some vegetable to go with the pork. As usual, some fried onions on top and soy sauce to add some taste.

Rice Wine Chicken - RM 8.50/small or RM 11.50/large
This is one of their famous dish over here. It's their Rice Wine Chicken. The ladies like this pot of chicken a lot. The chicken are really tender and get this, it's soft and juicy too. It's really rare to have such soft and tender chicken cooked in rice wine. Definitely a recommended dish.

Sesame Chicken - RM 8/small or RM 11/large
This is the second famous dish from their restaurant. This is my personal favorite too. The sesame sauce is smell so good and the chicken again is so tender and soft. The sauce isn't that thick that the sauce hides the taste of the chicken. But it's just right. This has got to be my favorite dish of the day.

Steamed Fish Head in Garlic - RM 18/small or RM20/large
I know it's weird to see these kind of dishes in a Bak Kut Teh restaurant but heck, it's nice eating something else other than pork. This fish head isn't that large but the garlic are plenty and get this, it's not that spicy as it looks. But the taste of garlic is really strong. Wondering if it's from the famous Bukit Tinggi hills. It was just alright for me as I am not so into fish head anyway.

The aftermath.
One thing we don't like bout the place was the size of the pot which the tea are being served. It's so darn small. They don't cater for large crowd maybe. So we need to order 2 pots of tea for the 10 of us. Other than that, it's alright. Service are considered good but again I think they should hire more workers in the future when the crowds are getting more.

This is where the Bak Kut Teh is being prepared and also the rice wine chicken. Still using the traditional charcoal, slow but the dish taste damn nice.

The place is still new so I think it needs time for people to get to know bout it. The total damage for the lunch come close to RM110 if I remembered it correctly. Please be reminded that we ordered 2 sets each of the dishes above (except the chicken). Sad thing is that, they don't serve dry Bak Kut Teh but they had compensated that with their Sesame Chicken which is really good. Definitely bringing my family over to have a taste of this restaurant during the weekends. (Rating: 4.0 out of 5.0)
