Ikan Bakar Pak Din - Tangling

After the Bellamy fiasco.. it's time to find a 'real' ikan bakar. Thanks to Boo_licious of masak-masak fame, she recommended this place on Jalan Cendarasari.

Location : Tanglin Foodcourt, just before Methodist Girls School in KL.

Can make it within an hour ? (travel + service) : Well, depending on traffic it's about a 15min drive from KLCC. There's ample parking space which is great. The ordering system can be a little chaotic though. You queue up for the rice and veggie and other dishes at the stall inside the foodcourt. The ikan bakar itself is ordered at the outside. You can either wait there and pick it up, or ask them to send it over.

Decor/Ambience : Obviously this place is popular because they've setup seats with umbrellas outside the foodcourt proper. We were lucky that the day was overcast, so it was nice and cool. I suspect it can get pretty hot on a sunny day.

Food : The fish (kembong, terubok or pari) are actually barbequed on charcoal, not the hot plate style. This adds to the flavour. The cooked fish is then covered in an asam sauce which was very good.

The terubok and pari was fresh and tasty. Even the humble kembong was very good, with the slightly charred flavour and the asam sauce.

Price : under RM10 per head... of course depends on how much fish you ordered.

Return Trip ? : A big yes... and thanks again to boo_licious !

..what's for lunch tomorrow ?
