One of the must try chinese family restaurant at Bagan Ajam, Butterworth. True enough my family had great time down there and the boss here was very friendly, cheerful and helpful, they took our order and kept telling us what’s their signature dishes down there. The prices are reasonable, all dishes are cook without adding MSG that i always come again n again.
Marmite Chicken, I believe they deep fried the marinated chicken and glazed with Marmite and Honey. It was crispy outside and juicy inside.
Asam Steamed Fish is another dishes we should try. True enough it was the best dish for the night. It wasn’t sour and it was just nice for everyone of us.
Salt egg pumpkin, vegetable, etc also good taste and the children like it a lot.
