Lunch @ Coconut Flower Restaurant @ Teluk Gong (13th April 2013)

13th April 2013- 12pm

Once in a while I decide to go to a slightly far-reached place for food, in the name of adventure. I mean, doesn't it get a little mundane having the same food again, and again near your living area?

Hence, the idea of travelling to Teluk Gong for lunch came up. Since *Heart has never been there before, and that signified the most opportune moment. This was my second time to the place, so I vaguely recalled the way to the place.

After fetching a friend from Kota Damansara, off we were onto the NKVE highway headed for Teluk Gong. The entire trip took up about 40 minutes from PJ.

Once we turned into the Teluk Gong area, we were greeted with a light industrial structures... and unfortunately badly paved roads (Courtesy of huge trucks traversing in and out), but certainly don't let that deter you from reaching the place. It certainly is well worth-it.

The restaurant.

Nothing like a nice coconut drink to coowl down from the heat while waiting for your dishes to be served.

Admire the serene setup. If you so choose, you could even dine under these tiny personal shades.

One of the highly-recommended dishes. The Fried Butter Squid. I am not a squid fan, but this goes very well with me.

Fried Mee Hoon with Oysters (Lala). Absolutely yummy.

The Assam fish. Was fresh, but the sauce didn't quite mix well with the fish.

Fried Oysters (with egg- Oh jien). Certainly one of the better ones with have tasted outside of Penang!
Overall, the bill came to about MYR 100 nett. It was certainly alright in my books, and we were thoroughly satisfied.

It's nice to find new places to dine in. And it's always lovely to do it with a loved one. Nothing beats exploring new venue with them, the sense of adventure certainly does strengthen bonds.

4/5.
