Ah Keat Restaurant @ Raja Uda, Butterworth

This place was recommended by a friend. When I heard this place got 'Char Moi' aka Fried Porridge, I must give it a try. Frankly, I was hooked with Fried Porridge from Sin Aik Kee, Serdang. Will see if this one can match up with the one from Serdang, Kedah.

We arrived about 7:45pm and the restaurant already packed with people.






Look at the row of aquariums, with various type of live seafood from eels, lobsters, fish and etc. Some may cost you a bomb ...














So, are we ready to eat ...




Starter, the Fried Porridge (RM10). It smells good but taste a bit salty. Could be due to the cutterfish shred. I'm still prefer Fried Porridge from Serdang, Kedah.




Next, 'Nam Ju' fried chicken wing (RM6). My kids love it.




Butter-fried mantis prawn, with salted egg yolk, lots of egg yolks ... the price is RM45, ouch! Yup, quite expensive as it used 2 big fresh mantis prawns instead of normal small size prawn meat. My recommendation to eat with rice, otherwise a bit salty.




Deep fried tauhu (RM8). This homemade is recommended.




Steamed La-La, served with chilli and lemon (RM10). Really increase your appetite.

Makan-makan @ Serdang, Kedah

Sin Aik Kee Restaurant is famous for 'Char Moi' aka Fried Porridge. Yup, they stir-fried the white overnight porridge with prawns, meats, trade secret salty meats, cuttlefish and with some thick black soya sauce.

Believe it or not, the 'Char Moi' is so good until I make a second trip within a week.

Better arrive this place before 7pm, otherwise you will get caught with huge crowd.









The appetizer, sweet and sour manggo salad. Slurp...


The famous 'Char Moi'. It may looks ugly but taste very good.


Another specialty, stir-fried spicy Clams


Assam prawns.


'Sa-Be' aka 3 flavours fish. Strongly recommended.
