Thomas had requested that we have a food outing to commerorate the inception of our Facebook makan group. However Thomas, Esther & Siew Keng had FFK'ed us but like all good troupers we carried on despite missing some personnel. Despite not having our FFK friends, the makan party was still ten strong. We had planned to go to Boros Kitchen but try as we might we just couldn't find the road where it was supposed to be located. Instead we ended up Kong Chow House, which incidentally is on the along the same stretch of shops as Hakka Rang.

If Hakka Rang specialises in Hakka cuisine, then Kong Chow House is supposed to specialise in Cantonese cuisine. However there were some Hakka dishes there as well like the "mooi choy kau yoke" (salted preserved vegetable stewed with a lovely 2 layer pork meat) which was quite good.

The Fish Curry was given a thumbs up. The curry was quite tasty though the fish lacked a bit of taste. I think the fish had not soaked long enough in the curry. Nevertheless that did not stop us from enjoying it. Bernice liked it so much that had two bowls of rice. Li Ping did likewise and wallopped the remainder of the curry by dumping her bowl of rice into the claypot and soaked up all the curry. She ended eating from the claypot bowl.

The other thing that we particularly enjoyed were the Fried Salted Prawns. The prawns were fresh and super crispy. With prawns that fresh, you may say that we should not have fried it. Yes maybe, but it was still a lovely dish. The other interesting dish we had was the "yau char kwai" steamed eggs. Yes it's exactly served the way they named it. A "yau char kwai" is steamed inside the egg. Interesting - yes, would I try it again - I think not. That's not to say that it was not good. On the contrary, the steamed eggs was very good - I just think this novelty is only good once.

The yong tau foo was so so and so were the vegetables. Overall we did enjoy our meal and was glad we ended up here. Note to Thomas - the committee voted that you are buying the next meal. That's the price of being a "Fei Kei Yau"!

Meal for ten - RM132
