Portugese Suits Her Fine In Bee Gaik

Called up my mum to tell her not to cook, "let's go out and eat tonight...." But when she asked me where we were going, I really had no idea then... Ipoh seems very small to me these days when it comes to looking for food.....


Finally.... I decided to go to Bee Gaik restaurant and the others readily agreed... It has been a long time since we had Nyonya and Portugese food and since my mom's appetite is not that good, this type of food might suit her fine...
 Bee Gaik Restaurant in Ipoh Garden South
first came the Kapitan chicken...
Nyonya food are very refined..
The dishes came out in small portions...
 Otak-Otak
(steamed fish pieces with spices)
 Perut Ikan...(but not fish stomach)
Certain kind of vegetables with some tendons...
(can someone enlighten me on this?)
Portugese Pork Ribs... very nicely done...
Mango Kerabu, very nice and appetizing!
All happening here in Bee Gaik Restaurant
The bill came to RM66 for the 5 of us...
I feel the price is quite reasonable though 
the dishes came in small portions...
Normally my mom cannot eat much
but to my delight, she finished her plate of rice!
I guess I must bring her here more often....

  6. RM66 for 5 person consider quite cheap already woh.. and most importantly your mum likes all the dishes.. i guess the food really must be nice, old ladies seldom cheat when it comes to food, haha~~

  8. Interesting dishes there. I've tried Portuguese food before and they are rather unique like these. The eatery itself looks elaborate. Nice find!

  12. The original nyonya perut ikan is with fish stomach and cook 'assam' style with long beans, laksa leaves, pineapple, daun karo.. the fish stomach usually kept for sometimes... talk about that, I still have a bottle of nicely done fish stomach hidden under my sink, time to ask my mum cook that.. yummy!
