Yik Kee Restaurant @ TTDI

This was my first trip over to this restaurant which is located at the saw row as the famous Loh Shi Fun at Taman Tun. It's called Yik Kee and from what I saw inside, it's main branch is located at Gohtong Jaya, Genting Highlands. The famous place where you eat fresh patin fish, fresh prawns noodle, shark fins, Buddha Jump Over The Wall (sorry, don't know how to translate this but you know what I mean). So me and my boss went in and browsed through the menu and decided to go with their special lunch set for 3 person.

Soup of The Day
The soup of the day was the winter melon with chicken. It's fresh but nothing special bout it since it comes with the set. As usual, a good soup always warm up my tummy before a storm of more good food to come.

Steamed River Patin Fish with Superior Soya Sauce
We were quite eager to taste the fish as fresh river patin are quite pricey in the market. So how fresh and good this dish, are the main question. Portion was good for three person with sufficient portion as the fish isn't too skinny. It is considered fresh but I had better. But considering the place and all, it's quite good. Combined together with their superior sauce, nice.

Yik Kee Roast Duck
I can say that the portion wasn't that large but just enough for the three of us. It's not hard and not too tender but right in the middle. No special sauce is given for the duck. Skin isn't that crispy and the meat isn't that strong of a herbal taste. Just your normal plate of Roast Duck.

Fresh Water Prawns Fry Noodle
We didn't ordered any rice to go with all the dishes as we thought that the portion of noodle from this dish would suffice. From the first look, it isn't that much but when we start to eat all the dishes one by one, it's quite filling. The fresh water prawns is just like the name said, fresh and large. Noodle was just alright. Strong scent of the egg yolk in the noodle. Some sort like Mun Yee Mee that we normally eat with Fresh Prawns in this case.

Overall, we have a good filling meal. The whole meal isn't to say cheap as there were the Patin fish, Fresh Prawns and Roast Duck. The whole meal cost us RM118++ and when you add tit bits and tea into the bill, it adds up to RM131. Expensive? Maybe. But it's claimable, so I guess it's alright with me. Their shark fin will dry you up around RM98/portion while the Buddha Over The Wall cost around RM70 - RM80. (Rating: 3.8 out of 5.0)
