Restaurant Taiping Ho Chiak

Restaurant Taiping Ho Chiak
28 Jalan SS 2/10 47300 Petaling Jaya,
TEL: 603-78766648

Restaurant Taiping Ho Chiak has nostalgic Nyonya theme with strong Taiping ambiance that reminds me of my childhood days when Dad used to take us to Taiping to visit my aunt.

We found this place by accident after a meal at Seeri Authentic Thai and had gone back twice since then. My hubby loves the food here because it reminds him of his Mum's cooking.

Ju Hu Char
Since it's only both of us, we go for their set meal. On our first outing, we had Ju Hu Char, Hae Kean, Nyonya sweet and sour fish, soup of the day (kiam chye th'ng), sambal belacan and white rice. All for RM28.00. Value for money and the dishes are actually quite good and portion is just nice for both of us.

Kiam Chye Ark
Our second set meal cost RM32.00.

Sambal Udang
It comes with Ju Hu Char, Lo Bak, Kiam Chye Ark, Acar Timun, Sambal Udang and Tong Sui. The dishes are good too except for the Lo Bak which is too hard.

We will definitely make this place our regular eating place as food is good and price is reasonable.

Bibi Chik Restaurant - SS2 PJ

Bibi Chik Restaurant is located at No 17, SS2/30, 47300 Petaling Jaya
TEL: 603 7873 6769
Opening Hours: Daily 12nooon - 3pm, 6.30pm-10pm
GPS Coordinates: 3° 6' 47.28" N 101° 37' 14.76" E

Every year the 4-Sekawan (me and my other 3 friends, ex-colleagues) will meet up for Chinese New Year dinner and this year, there were only with 3 of us (Zureen, Koon Yin and myself) as Wai Leng was away on business trip.

Salmon Yee Sang
We chose Bibi Chik as the restaurant is pork free and they serve authentic and delicious nyonya food.

We started off with "lou sang". We had Salmon Yee Sang.
Ayam Ponteh
I'm never tired of eating Yee Sang. Can have it everyday and still be very happy :) Maybe because it's available only during Chinese New Year and after that no one sells till the next CNY.

Their top 10 signature dishes are honey sotong, BibiSauce chicken, assam prawns, mango fish, paku pakis, perut ikan, assam fish, petai prawns, butter prawns and crispy brinjal.

Honey Sotong
We ordered 2 of their top 10 signature dishes (honey sotong and paku pakis) and ayam ponteh to go with rice.

These are all my favorite food. The Ayam Ponteh is cooked with potatoes and sugar cane. Paku Pakis is a fern that grows wild in rubber estates. I used to eat alot of Paku Pakis during my childhood days as it's free and readily available. The sotong is deep fried and cooked with honey.

Paku Pakis Sambal Belacan
We had a great time catching up with one another. Dinner started at 7pm and by the time we left the restaurant is was past 10pm. Food was great and the place is a great place where you can take your time to eat and chit-chat.

If you visit them on weekends, there will be live music performance by Roy Chew.
