It was a Saturday morning and my sis in law suggested we drive to Kota Tinggi to try the famous Kiang Kee Bak Kut Teh. This was a famous eatery in the south and as if you google it, you can find lots of entries on this restaurant. Though it was closed around 1pm (opens at 7am), most of the time, the BKT will finished by 11am+. We reached there around 10am+ . It was a bright sunny morning which makes an enjoyable drive, though it was slightly jam after Ulu Tiram.
|
It was not difficult to find the place as it was located by the roadside. If you are coming from JB, it was a short drive after the junctions to Desaru and Kota Tinggi and located at the right |
|
It was already lots of crowd when we reached there |
|
One nice thing is that the claypot are cooked with charcoals. There were so many pots there! |
|
Busy preparing the food |
|
We ordered a pot of BKT, fried beancurd, otak-otak and a small plate of vegetables. |
|
The BKT was very 'kao' and it was really good. The meat too, was well-cooked. Not too hard and soft , jut nice! There was also lots of mushrooms. |
|
Vegetables - 'mui' choy |
|
Fried beancurd in BKT soup |
|
Otak-Otak - it was spicy! |
|
Enjoying the BKT with a nice pot of chinese tea |
|
Love the environment there. It was cooling under the shades. |
