Claypot Chicken Rice.

Because I am so bloody forgetful, I totally forgot to take note of this restaurant's name, champion in the making. But no fear, for I shall have no trouble guiding you there or even keep you company all the way provided I get a free meal, muahaha. Okay, the mentioned restaurant is located in Equinne Park, right behind the Jusco complex and from the entrance nearest to Jusco, its located on the left-most lane, around the middle left-row, fuh, I felt that I'm almost as powerful as GPS, at times.

Nothing is more refreshing that a glass of icy cool herbal tea on a blazing Saturday afternoon, slurps. Taking on the first sip, it almost felt as though it was heaven sent.

Pig's stomach in black pepper soup (Hak Jiu Jue Tou Tong) and surprisingly, the soup was boiled with chicken as part of the main ingredient me thinks, notice the chicken meat in the soup? In the beginning I was complaining on how the soup lacks the black pepper OMPH and in the end, it was too thick to handle, choking on every spoonful, oh, the irony.

I spent quite a bit of time thinking, how "Luk Yau Choy" is supposed to be referred to in English. Oiled Steamed Vegetables since Lou Luk = Steamboat? Boiled vegetable served with deep fried garlic and soy sauce? It was fresh and crunchy btw.

Main dish, the claypot chicken rice. What? Didn't I mention this earlier *scrolls up and reads* Well, I guess not, ahaha *pai seh* So, the best part of this dish is its huge serving and the taste sector faring quite well. The bad part, its huge serving and good taste as well because you tend to try your best to finish it up no matter what, lols. And end up bloated for the rest of the day.


Before I forget oh typical me, all the above costs about RM22, quite cheap considering the huge serving of claypot chicken rice, cooked using the traditional method, with charcoal that is, also camed with chinese sausage as well as small chunks of salted fish yums. Another plus point, cleanliness of the claypot itself. Can fight with the one in Pudu (along the main road beside Maybank) as well as Taman Desa Aman (one of the shoplots inside the flats).
