We have been frequenting Sunway Mas Commercial Centre lately, mainly because of parking is a breeze and the traffic line is not as congested as other PJ/Damansara area.
Few weeks ago, we found ourselves to have the craving for bak kut teh but balked at the thought of traveling a great distance to Klang. 15 minutes later, we were sitted comfortably at Wong Siong Wong, overlooking the drizzling dark night. Just the perfect weather for some bubbling hot herbal soup! Wong Siong Wong is run by the Wong’s family where Kenny and Kin Meng are the main chef behind the screen.
The Johor style bak kut (RM 9 per pax) is served in a claypot with obligatory ingredients such as intestines, cabbage, button mushroom and bean curd. It might not be the best bak kut teh around, but we love the light and fragrant herbal taste of the soup.
Wonder from where does bak kut teh originated and what is the story behind? Read “The Fun Facts About Bak Kut Teh“.
The lamb stew (RM 9 per pax), marinated with Chinese five spices powder are stewed together with garlic, onion, ginger and pepper before it is cooked in a claypot with garnishes such as carrot, celery, bean curd, fungus and Chinese wine. The chunks of meat are perfectly done where we couldn’t find a hint of the annoying lamb smell. A very appetizing dish because the thick gravy goes really well with rice.
