Lan Je In Rawang

I know I might sound "cheapskate" a bit but I think road side stalls suit me better. Some stalls serve their own specialities and as for this Kedai Makanan Lan Je, it is famous for their talapia fish. According to my rawang fren, this owner has his own fish farm and he does his own special recipe on the talapia fish.

Nothing fishy going on...

so No Fishy Smell....
its texture is very fresh
just nicely cooked
and the sauce...is.... how to say...
"overwhelming"
u can actually drink it...(really one..)


this "sotong" is also their speciality
the sauce is very "tap pik"
(very appetising)


chicken balls
something different too...

crispy fresh "yau mak"


we ordered 3 plates of steamed fish...
one surely not enough..


1, 2, 3 fishes for 5 persons...


few minutes later...
only bones were left.. lol...


the crowd...
sometimes u need to stand around first
before u can get a table...
Price : RM80 for 5 pax

  15. give you one suggestion, everytime you go makan at stalls, tell the owners that you are a famous blogger and you wnat to put up their pictures in your blog, and thousands of ppl will go and patronize them and ask them for handsome discount on your foods,,

    good idea?

    take care my friend
