Want to know where to go for very good steamed prawns by the kilo?
Out of Klang valley but not too far?
Maybe some shack in a fishing town?
Just like Salud in KK?
Appreciate any ideas?

fark..u made me crave for this now ...

Eating sang yuk pao as a late night snack now after bike ride.

Arghhh

Can try the Tanjung Tualang, Perak fresh water prawn restaurants. The whole town are full with the restaurants offering fresh water prawn.

In Tualang can give Thong Lok a try. Prawns are fresh and delicious. Pricing is reasonable as well. Wont be disappointed with their steam prawns.

as an alternative, u can go nsk kuchai, they have LIVE tiger prawns size of your hand @rm55per kg [approx] bring home and steam yourself

600g of steamed fresh water prawns
1 veg
1 kam hiong lala
2 chinese tea
2 rice.

Bill came ard RM75.

Well, thanks to your post, am planning to head to Jeff Lee's kitchen for NYE dinner. Miss the chicken.

Hopefully thong lok dont disappoint. Enjoy.

These were some of the photos during my last year visit around September 2020. I couldn’t recall what the shop name. The few rows of the shop were full of restaurant selling fresh water prawns. The only thing I could recall, the order taker will asked what size of the prawn we wanted to order & will give indication how many pieces of prawns you will get per kg according to the sizes.















I ordered steamed fresh water prawns ( 1kg around 6 pieces ), sambal paku-pakis, steam fresh water fish (bak suk kong @ baung), tofu.
