Don't worry lah BMW's don't come as the tables and chairs are more suitable for tong sui seating.It's a let down

Hmmm ... must admit that I did not pay too much attention to the decor as long as it is clean and hygenic ... I will have a look again when I go for dinner this weekend

I am a very focus type when it comes to food ....

OIC ....

I thought you meant, the chairs and tables were so "lau-beh" and sub-standard that BMWs/Merc crowd would not patronise the place - like that, NO PROBLEM lah ... I thought I missed something

Yes, just before the end of 2011, the lady in charge mentioned to me that they are moving permises and they have yet to SMS me their new location.

How to do business when you do not have vast publicity sumore next to Parkway.It's shop with such furniture and no proper signage of menu how do ppl know.To me it's looks like Tong Sui shop.

Lucky thing Jan is good at damage control! .

Funny, I haven't noticed this restaurant before though I go to Parkway quite often for the ckt. Must keep an eye out for it.

Maybe no profits made, hence ta-pau!?

Hi All,

Just for your info. This fish shop is now being taken over by the Parkway Tai Chow. The si tao poh told me they will (have) move(d) on 11/4/12. Apparently the Parkway boss increase their rent as what she claimed la.

Had my dinner at their new premise yesterday...its smaller no doubt but food wise still the same. Tasty and cheap. The place is air-conditioned and somewhat cleaner i feel compared to Parkway. Oh btw, this tai chow now has a new name to go by but forgot to note it down

The shop only serves ONE type of fish and they really know how to do it - I asked the lady and she said she charges RM4 per 100gm and all the patin are 600-700gms and from Temerloh - so around RM24-28 per fish !!!!
For the similar amount of food at the other tai-chows nearby, I will be paying close to RM35-40 for the fish and overall, the bill will be around RM20- more !!

For info, my son started his own small patin farm in Temerloh since this year. Its bred in the bank of Sungei Semantan (this river flow onwards and meet Sungei Pahang at Temerloh town), off the main road going to Jerantut or not far from the Temerloh toll plaza. The wholesale price for patin from the farm is about RM11-14/kg. The quality of fish feed is the killer expense, couple of hundred bucks worth a day. The best Patin is supposidely from Temerloh area. I understand its managed and bred differently in Pekan Pahang, which some say it doesn't taste the same as from Temerloh.
Of course restaurant prices will be much much higher.

OIC Thanks for the info. I thought it was a brand new restaurant and was planning to give it a try this weekend - like that, I will stick to my old fav - Choy Kee then

This PATIN SHOP (that was closed) , I wish they reopen somewhere nearby, they were good, nice and cheap !!!

Cheap! Soon Hock at RM 25 is value for money.

These are pond patin fish, commercially bred. It is sold for about RM4 per kilo at Carrefour. I like patin because the flesh is smooth. River patin can cost until RM100.00 per kilo in some restaurants. River patin has less fats. Pond patin is full of fat so if you like fish fat in the stomach, patin is the best.
