*** Hing Kee Bak Kut Teh ***

After the nasi lemak, it was 10.30 am so we walked to Hing Kee which is near rhb.

Total MYR 48.25 nett after adding 6% sst

10.50 am - the soup is the light colour type of bkt soup with strong enough herbs taste. He likes the taste of this bkt soup.

11.15 am - look at the timing from 10.46 am to 11.13 am, about 30 minutes to eat this bkt lunch but we took half the chicken feet home for his early dinner on the next day.

11.16 am - still early so not many customers yet. Not sure why the sign says restoran lau Kim thai

*** Fat Boon restaurant ***

Yesterday he wanted to eat ice desserts at this Fat Boon restaurant after Gemini recommended it to him but today after bkt he says he is too full but I insist we proceed as planned.

11.34 am - he ordered this taro ice with real cubes of taro mixed in the taro paste MYR 11++

11.34 am - I ordered abc ice MYR 6++

11.34 am - topview

11.38 am - I also ordered salted egg yolk prawns without shells which is MYR 25 per 100g vs MYR 18 per 100g for prawns with shells so after I placed the order for without shells I have no idea how much this dish would cost.

Luckily for 10 prawns the price is MYR 40++

The prawns are tasty with fried curry leaves so we ate 5 prawns each.

12.20 noon - total MYR 66.10 nett.
