Chuan Kie, Gotong Jaya

It was a fact I didn't want to admit. It's so much easier to blog about food than anything else.

So here's another entry from me about food. Went out for a family outing today to Genting. First stop was Lim Goh Tong memorial.


Still amazes me when I think what a huge empire Lim manage to build on our Malaysian mountain side area. First World Hotel is a record holder with > 10,000 rooms.


Above the memorial is a pavillion. Wouldn't this make a nice place for a late night get together?


Next was lunch at Gotong Jaya in Chuan Kie restaurant. There are lots of Chinese eating shops in Gotong Jaya's main street. They all look alike. They all serve roughly the same stuff too. Chuan Kie's distinguishing feature is that inside the restaurant, its walls are plastered full of celebrity photos taken with Chuan Kie staff.


Here's Mr Andy Lau Tak Wah. This picture must be really old, the colour has faded.


Here's Sally Yeh and George Lam. There are a lot more... maybe you can go look for Chuan Kie and have some fun identifying who you can recognise.


Food arrived, and is usual Chinese fare. The dish on the bottom left is "ka fah yok", but it tasted like pieces of fried lard, nothing more. Not for the health conscious. The taste was quite normal too. We had another patin fish dish, but it wasn't too fresh either. And the patin was RM90/kg. Word of advice, always ask for price and freshness before ordering!
