Xin Kuala Sepetang Seafood &
Aik Kee Fried Porridge

We were on a roll. That was from Ipoh to Kuala Sepetang and onwards to Serdang's Famous Fried Porridge. We had seafood at Sepetang at 3pm and then shopped for some dried seafood before heading over to Aik Kee for our fried dark and thick porridge.









The fresh fishes laid out at the seafront restaurant was for choosing. Yes, we have to exercise caution that is we have a dinner in 3 hrs and we carefully choose the freshest items that were available. Cockles and crabs that were well and kicking plus a vege dish.

The cockles were done just right. Soaked just momentarily in boiling water and then poured out so that not to overcooked. We smelt bloody blood and meaty and engorged cockles. Bliss and enjoyable.

Then the flower sea crabs came with all its glory, fresh and again steam just to cook and allowed it to boil in its own juices. The meat peeled off easily and the morsels were fleshy, firm and sweet from the sea.

We left for Serdang, Kedah at about 5pm and arrived at Aik Kee at 6pm. We were early as just 2 or 3 tables were occupied. The fried porridge came and looked as I envisioned in my mind. The porridge were came congealed and seems plastered together. But the combination of sweet broth, dried squid, fresh small prawns did aalot of good to the humble watery staple of many. The taste and texture were superb. It can hold its owna despite its lowly status in the Chinese food pantheon.

Due to its proximity to Thailand, we ordered their Thai style Red Snapper and Mango Salad. The Mango Salad was appetising and open our appetite. Its was refreshing. The Thai style fish was a notch higher than those from the roadside Tomyam joint.
