Klang : Angcle Peoh @ Bandar Bukit Tinggi Klang Penang Street Food Comes To Klang Review By Best Restaurant


If you are in Klang and suddenly yearn for some Penang Street food, you will be able to satisfy this craving as Penang Street food has hit Klang in a big way..


Best Restaurant To Eat got the pleasure to be invited for a Penang Street Food at Angcle Peoh located at 42, Lorong Batu Nilam 21B, Bandar Bukit Tinggi 2, Klang, Selangor recently.


At Angcle Peoh, you can enjoy Penang fare without any sweat as the place is air-conditioned with a simple setup with which the walls are decorated with the little journey with which the 3 generations of the Ang family that have been serving the fame Air Itam Assam Laksa since 1950.


Our review started with one of Penang favorite Street Food which is Hokkein Mee a.k.a. Prawn Mee for folks of the Klang Valley. The soup based was very fragrant with the strong aroma of the prawn broth (made from the frying of the prawns shell and blended to fine pieces and boiling it for more than 2 hours).


The serving of the pork for this Hokkien mee was also slightly different from the norm (which uses the dry slice pork fillet); instead it is a slice pork which is marinated and lightly coated with corn starch (much like the pork noodles type).


Next, we were served the Penang Fried Kuey Teow With Duck Eggs; Angcle Peoh also serve the traditional Fried Kuey Teow with Chicken Eggs too if you are one of those that prefers it over the duck eggs.


I find the use of duck eggs to be more aromatic; and it brings out the taste of the Fried Kuey Teow. Although it was served with 2 pieces of reasonably size prawns; I find the lacks of cockles in the dish to be too little and too small. Yours truly just loves the Penang Fried Kuey Teow with lots of cockles as the cockles taste is the one that brings out the truly great flavour and taste of a real Penang Fried Kuey Teow.

This is then followed by the Signature Air Itam Assam Laksa, According to Ms Ang, her grandmother was the one; who was selling this same Assam Laksa in Air Itam in 1950 using a kandar (much like the nasi kandar man during that era) and a basket which are filled with the broth and condiments for the delicious laksa.


One of the thing that I notice in the Assam Laksa that are served at Angcle Peoh is that, there is a very generous portion of sardines fish meat in every bowl of laksa; which explains the strong fishy taste and coupled with the fragrantful aroma of the bunga kantan makes this broth unpretentious.


Our final dish is the Curry Mee; the curry here has a different texture in that, it is not the rich type of santan based curry which I prefer.


According to the chef, this version enables the customers to taste the spices in the curry; one has to appreciate the strong taste of the curry ingredient that was put into this curry broth.


For desserts, we were served the Air Batu Campur (ABC) which has the cream of corn, julienne grass jelly and red beans.


But the other dessert; which is the Cendol, was my favorite dessert at Angle Peoh as the cendol, has a firm texture and a very strong pandan taste (thru the use of fresh pandan leaves) and perfectly blended with the santan juice.


The cendol were inhouse made and was a definite a mildly sweet thirst soother after all the fiery spicy food dishes that we had earlier.


Judging from the large crowd during our visit; it seems that Klang folks have already discovered this Angcle Peoh at Bukit Tinggi Klang to satisfy their Penang Street food craving.

Heritage Village @Jaya Shopping Centre Petaling Jaya – Penang Nyonya Street Delights Food Review


Many of us love to eat Penang food, as it is one of the states that serve mouth watering street food virtually in every corner. But, the next time, you crave for some of these Penang delights, you need not have to travel that far to taste it, you will be able to savour some of these dishes at Heritage Village located at L3-13, Jaya Shopping Centre, Section 14, 46100 Petaling Jaya Malaysia.


Jaya shopping centre is a rebuilt shopping mall in Section 14, which offers patrons with entertainment like cinema and a number of restaurants that have enjoyed brisk business since opening a couple of months ago.


My first impression, Heritage Village was the heritage rustic décor with age-old ornament used to provide that dining ambience of yesteryear in a comfortable air conditioned environment.


Heritage Village serves mostly single dish food i.e. like their Signature Nasi Lemak which comes with many different varieties namely Chicken Rendang, Beef Rendang, Ayam Inche Kabin , Sambal Sotong, Sambal Udang (the recipe of which was passed down from 3 generation).


Other rice dishes are the Otak Fried Rice - Otak-Otak Based Fried Rice accompanied with Fried Eggs, Chicken and


Pie Tee - Crispy top-hat like cracker filled with stir fried sengkuang and carrots.


Other single dishes which are noodles based are the Heritage Assam Laksa.





So, if you are really in for a quick lunch to savour some Penang Nyonya dishes in a comfortable environment, you know where to head to.


Heritage Village also serves ala-carte side dishes like Jui Hu Char - a nyonya dish made from stir fired sengkuang, carrots, dried squid and mushroom served with green lettuce or the


Heritage Chicken Loh Bak + Century Eggs + Fried Tofu


Nyonya Kuih (like Kuih Talam, Kuih lapis, Seri Muka  and etc which are placed on the table).


Some of the main dishes that you could order as add on to your single dishes are Assam Pedas with Ikan Pari or their 


Curry Fish Head too. Both these dishes are strong flavoured and are nice to be eaten with white rice.


At Heritage Village, you will be spoil of choices to order as there are just too many dishes for you to decide on.


For me, the best of the night has to be the Heritage Durian Cendol as I love Durian. It was just the right balance of the musky durian flesh mix with the cold slurpee cendol and big red beans that will drools you after a stomach filling meals of hot, spicy and sourish meals.


Others durians infused desserts include the Durian Bo Bo Cha Cha
and Durian ABC.
