Yoke Heng Special Claypot Lou Shu Fan @ Serdang Raya
Few weeks ago, I went to try the famous Claypot Lou Shu Fan at Yoke Heng restaurant, Serdang Raya. Actually, I already knew the restaurant’s existence through an ex colleague about 3 years ago. At that time, claypot Lou Shu Fan was a topic we always talked about, especially during lunch time. Haha, can’t believe it took me so long to actually get to try it.
Unlike other claypot Lou Shu Fan which is usually very dry and dark in color, this has white-yellowish gravy instead. It is a very popular place for lunch among those working in TPM (Technology Park Malaysia) and Astro Bukit Jalil. But don’t worry, it opens at night as well because I had this for dinner.
I am still not very sure what are those crunchy brown stuff on the Lou Shu Fan. They tasted like lard to me, but some claim they are dried shrimps. Well, I don’t really care whether they were lard or dried shrimps as long as they make the noodles tasty lol. And the thick, gluey gravy with those ‘rat tails’ reminds me of shark fin soup with fattened shark’s fin.
Another thing that makes it similar to eating shark’s fin would be adding black vinegar as the accompaniment. I don’t know about you but when it comes to black vinegar, I can only associate it with shark fin soup lol. If you are wondering, a serving for three like this cost RM15 or equivalent to RM5 for each pax. Quite reasonable if you ask me, just that I didn’t really feel full after the meal.
Besides claypot Lou Shu Fan, Yoke Heng is also famous for their Chinese dishes like sweet and sour pork (Gu Lou Yok). One of my friend who tagged along for dinner ordered it which came wrapped in aluminium foil. I don’t have any photos of it so maybe I will return in future to try it myself. Yoke Heng is located along Serdang Raya road towards KL, just opposite BHP Petrol Station.

Ayam Penyet AP @ AEON Seberang Perai, Penang
about 2 years ago - 4 comments
Ayam Penyet AP, an affordable restaurant serving the delicious and addictive Indonesian cuisine called Ayam Penyet, loosely translated to smashed fried chicken. It is a perfect alternative to the already over-mushroomed kopitiam franchises. Not only the quality is getting worse, portion is getting smaller and prices are always increasing. Imagine, after I finished my cuppa

If this pot looks familiar, it’s either you have read my old post about Sauna Prawns, or you have seen and tasted it before personally. For those uninitiated, Sauna Prawns is a dish where a glass of Carlsberg beer is poured into a pot with heated sauna stones underneath, then immediately followed by a bowl

Located at the heart of PJ, SS2 is Nyonya Restaurant – a three decades old and pork free restaurant serving authentic baba nyonya cuisine since 1974. Although the current owner is the fourth, changes have been minimal and the dishes are still faithfully prepared according to the original chef’s recipes. I like to start off

There aren’t many Japanese restaurants in BM so I am glad that Shunka Japanese Restaurant at Maju Utama Business Centre is a good one. This business centre is also home to a number restaurants and cafes like Bloggers Cafe, Station 1 and Old Town. Currently it is the most popular venue to hang out in

For a cheap and tasty meal, D Kuang Seafood Restaurant at Kampung Baru (Bukit Mertajam) would be a great choice. Here, a dinner for a family of four would cost only a little over RM50 and you could have five dishes inclusive of seafood, meat and vegetable. Sounds good? Read on. Kung Pao Mantis Prawn

Wahiro Japanese Restaurant @ Roxy Square, Katong

Wahiro is a family run Japanese restaurant located at Roxy Square, Katong that provides authentic Japanese cuisine. The dishes are prepared with fresh air-flown ingredients from Japan at a reasonable price – reasonable in the sense that you get what you paid for. Although the prices are a notch higher than its counterparts, I didn’t

a little late comment just to give my opinion as of this date. I agree with Vpig. The lou shu fun is starchy and not good at all compared to what it used to be. The service is just shitty. They don’t pay much attention to you even when there is not many customers around
