Twin Brother Bak Kut Teh Seafood - Ara Damansara
Twin Brother Bak Kut Teh Seafood Restaraunt
Ara Damansara has undoubtedly seen more light shining into their dull and sparse culinary scene. We came to this Bak Kut Teh place for a carnivorous meal, but it was sold out at 8 pm Sunday. We settled for some a la carte Chinese food. Pretty impressive though, a Bak Kut Teh and Seafood restaurant under one roof. Thus, the BKT has to wait for another day.
We took our time to place our order, scouring the menu, and engaging the captain on what's good. After an exchange, the decision was primal. Order our favorites from the list.
Top of the list would be the Fried Intestines with Dried Shrimps. This dish does not come easy as most eateries don't carry it. We were in luck that day. The first I noticed on biting and chewing was the wok hei (breath of the wok). Secondly, the crunchy texture I expected was there with the excellent umami taste.
The vinegar trotters came second; my wife dug in as I was enjoying the intestines. Came my turn, after eating the first two pieces, I was asking her where were the meaty parts. I seemed to be getting those with skin and small bits of meat. She was sheepish. The competition was on. The taste was on a sweet side with some tart. Some have so much vinegar that the fumes will sear the nose and get you to the point of almost choking.
Lastly, the pork stomach soup came in a clay pot. So far, so good. It was a clear soup type. Good broth. The stomach usually has three different textures. One is smooth and slightly chewy and the other rough and firm. The middle is more of a thin elastic membrane. That is the reason why many like this piece of pig's spare part. It was done just right. Some kitchen seemed to have overdone it, and the rough part gets crinkled and rubbery. The stomach loses the correct texture and somehow ruins a good eat.
Worthy of visits again. But first I have to try their Bak Kut Teh maybe for lunch.
