Chuan Kee Bak Kut Teh is located somewhere along the Genting-Klang road. Please do not attempt to get there without a GPS. It’s impossible. Fresh lives around that area and it took me and Michelle quite a while to find her place a couple of days ago.
We were headed out to dinner without a particular destination in place. I was about to go to a seafood restaurant when Fresh said that she was feeling like BKT. Hot damn! I felt like BKT too. Unfortunate for Mich who just had BKT for lunch. *pat pat*
Anyway, it was surprising to find the place PACKED despite the obscurity and…er, sheer ulu-ness of the area. I wouldn’t be surprised to find a BKT place in Klang full of hungry customers, but in this area? Hmm…
This is pig intestines/stomach soup with lots of pepper. I love this dish.
We also ordered a couple of other dishes:
I can’t read Chinese so Michelle would be the best person to ask about what we actually had.
I only know we ordered a lot of pork…
…coz that’s what you do when you eat BKT.
I have no idea who ordered this travesty though. Tofu! Veggies! WTF?
Now to the main feature! Klang (kinda, it’s on the Genting-Klang road :p) BKT.
Michelle‘s verdict: Not as good as Klang Bak Kut Teh
Fresh‘s verdict: Okay la. (and after some prompting) Alright since I’ve had Klang BKT, it won’t live up to that.
My verdict: Fucking good. Don’t use me as a gauge though, I was damn hungry at that time coz I haven’t eaten anything the entire day coz it was a Saturday. 🙂
Was craving for BKT so badly last weekend when I was in Penang. But I was in a rush so I didn’t have enough time to have it…and now you post this.. evil evil HB. 😛
i sound like i live in the jungle hahahaha!
tofu is good. and the photo of us actually turned out quite nice !hi
HB, Happy April Fool Day! Boy love seeing photos of what you ordered. Rustic food but that what make them so yummy to eat.
Everyone defends Klang Bak Kut Teh! WHY?
I prefer Canto ones better. 🙁

chefmel: Heh! I have been craving for bak kut teh too, haven’t had it in AGES. 🙂
Well, it felt like ages although I had it in KK. Haha!
fresh: You live…quite a distance from where Regular Folks a.k.a. The Rest of Us (TM) lives. 😉
Actually it’s not really that far, it’s just coz I’m unfamiliar with the place.
I don’t like tofu. T_T
Yup, it came out pretty good. 🙂
Erica: Hello there! Ours ended yesterday, no pranks unfortunately. Heh!
Yup, bak kut teh is chicken soup for the soul. In the old days the laborers eat it as breakfast before starting work. 🙂
Michelle Chin: I don’t know, maybe it’s coz Klang is famous for its Bak Kut Teh? 🙂
Where is the best Cantonese bak kut teh?
Erm…for that matter I haven’t heard of a Cantonese bak kut teh. Sambal ones, dry ones and regular ones, those I know. 🙂
Where can you find it?
WEEN: Heh! I wish. That is my dream actually – to be a food or travel host. It’s the life! Going places and all that. 🙂
Unfortunately, I wouldn’t pass an audition coz I tend not to enunciate words properly.
fresh needs to eat more!
KY: Yeah, she’s damn skinny. 🙂
Yah I personally don’t find Klang BKT that great, PJ/KL ones are better.
It’s more for the experience than the taste.
True loh, nothing beats Klang’s versions. The traditional version in bowls, and the claypot ones.
OMG!!!! I am sooooo looking forward to going back in April!!!!!!!!! *droolin’~~~~~* Anyway, is there anything u would like me to bring for u from UK?
ah ko, the servings seemed damn small or I am just a fucking porker. What to go, used to having big meals. Anyway, pls give Fresh (I assume the girl on the left) two rubber bands.
what travesty! you are tofu!
Hey the tofu was really good ok!
The dishes were some pork intestines in pepper soup, vineger pork knuckles and erm….does it even matter anymore? hahaha
Lets do this again but not BKT please, having 2 BKT meals in a day is not good kinda gave me a phobia of pork! hehe Oh thanks again for dinner! =)
ShaolinTiger: There is one near SS6 close to the chicken rice place that is pretty damn good. 🙂
J2Kfm (Malaysian Food Blog): Oh! The bowls is a Klang invention? I thought it was a KK invention. Thanks for enlightening me. 🙂
Social Stranger: Haha! I can think of a lot of things but I don’t want you to have trouble passing through Malaysia customs. Just come as you are, we’ll go for lunch or dinner. 🙂
rocket: Yeah, I eat a lot but the two girls don’t. Besides, I drank a lot of beer. 😉
Fresh looks awesome okay? It’s her makeover! =D
aud: Haha! That’s just the name Lee Fen gave me unsolicitated. 😉
I don’t even like tofu.
At least not the edible kind. 😉
michellezyenn: Thanks for the clarification Mich! =D
Yeah, the pepper soup with pork innards is damn good.
No worries! Winnings from Genting must belanja or else it’s a losing streak.
BTW, I just won another 3.8k tonight, another round tomorrow! 🙂
