Whistle while you work... Restoran Wong Kee
Says the See-Fu (chef) , "Get in-line brother.. it's going to take a while"...
"I take my own sweet time, because.. I CAN."
(oh,whistle while you work,
Hitler is a jerk,
Mussolini bit his weeny,
now it doesn't work..
dum-dee-dum..
sung to the tune of "whistle while you work") :P
So, let's see... too early and you have to wait. Too late and the Siew Yoke is all gone. That is how crazy people are about the Roasted Pork here.
And rightly so because... it's good. Real good.
A thin layer of crisp.
A sweet layer of white meat.
A staggered layering of soft fat.
This crazy, little, Siew Yoke dish makes the wait worthwhile, every single time.
However, we still feel the need to complain.
Not about the quality of the Siew Yoke, which is still world-class.
The price really killed us. 4-5 short slabs of roasted pork, 1/4 chicken, 2 pax normal
Char Siew(BBQ Pork) & 5-6 drinks set us back by RM93! holy pig!
Also, while the Siew Yoke is excellent, they use way too much salt and MSG - which is weird because, if one has a meat as succulent and sweet as pork, why does one need to add more artificial flavouring?
U go ask the Chef. (I'd rather keep my head on, thanks.)
