Lan Je Tilapia

We went back for more tilapia dishes at Lan Je Tilapia, PopCorn Food Court, Midvalley Mall.

Medium sized tilapia at MYR 21.90 nett. I requested for the dark sauce (oyster sauce) to be omitted this time. At first the staff said it could not be done. Later he informed me that it could be done so I guess he must have asked HQ and they gave him some instructions on how to do it. Tasty when steamed without the oyster sauce which I find to be on the salty side.

The next time we went there, we tried the deep fried version of a medium sized fish too at the same price. They must have coated the fish with a thin layer of salt before frying because it was quite salty and very crispy. After trying this, we prefer the steamed fish dish to this deep fried fish dish.

  1. I like tilapia - we get it alive from the lakes at the hydro-electric dam here.

  3. My sis-in-law told me about the one at Kota Damansara. I was keen but my partner does not like tilapia.

  5. Oh I must visit this Popcorn place! So many types of good food.

    The original Lan Jie is nearer my place, but haven't been there for ages by now.
