The Best Steamed Fish Head - Jalan Raja Laut - Ong Lai
If you know Jalan Raja Laut, you should know where Mungo Jerrys place is (good bah kuh teh and great pork knuckles).
If you know where Mungo Jerrys is, this place is just across the road, down a back street, I forgot to take note of the name.
It's pretty easy to spot though with it's sprawling tables and jam packed crowd all sitting in a back alley.
It's famous for the steamed fish head (jeng yu tau I think?), but I noticed everyone was ordering the O Jien (Oyster Omlette), so we had to have some of that.
I have to say it was REALLY good, juicy oysters and cooked just right.
Also had some of this, which is something like Pan Min...but not, I can't remember the name.
The Hokkien Mee was REALLY good, with loads of big lumps of lat.
Some green vege, as normal (a bit salty, but good).
All cleared up, waiting for the masterpeice..
And then it comes! The monster sized fish head.
It was huge, bigger than most fish you get, cooked to perfection with tender succulent flesh, definately worth a try, I shall go back soon!
We picked it to the bone.
Damn....hungry now.
