Location: Same block as BDC H&L Supermarket.
Jalan-jalan cari makan. Decided to try Karukay Cafe out...
Kakuray Cafe has been around for 6 months, and is owned by a local chap which had a nine years stint in Singapore before coming back to work at Hai Pa Wang (near SRJK Chung Hua 3) for a short while.
Salted fish fried rice with "mani-chai" (RM3.50)
- the mani-chai gave it a bit of a crunchy bite
Fried fish slices in ginger broth (RM5.00/ with rice RM6.00)
- the rice is filled to the plate's brim
Portion: Dog size (Dog = I'm stuffed; Cat = Just nice; Kitty = I'm still hungry)
Ambient:
Typical kopitiam seating/environment. A bit warm due to the low ceiling. A/C might be in order but that would crank up the electric bill and thus the food bill.
Verdict:
Heavy seasoning can overwhelm a dish. A tomyam soup which is too sour or a black soy sauce chicken dish which is too salty for example.
Both the dishes I tried are light on seasoning but still sufficient enough to bring out the taste. I kinda like the "ginge-ry" broth. Coupled with dog size portions and reasonable pricing, will I go back to try out the other dishes? Yes!
