Rawang Famous Steam Fish In Ipoh

We have noticed this eatery many times when travelling to and from Gopeng. And many times especially during dinner time, we noticed the place is usually packed with customers. We have been talking and wanting to try the food here with our foodie friends but nothing happened.

It finally happened and 5 of us were able to meet up at this Restoran Rawang Famous Steam Fish one fine evening.
The restaurant is on the same row as the Symphony Suites.
It is a corner shop next to the RM2 shop.
 There is plenty of parking space.

It was a weekday and not very crowded.
 The place is spacious and comfortable.
 The drinks corner at the back and the menu on the wall.
 The payment counter on the left and the kitchen behind the screen.
 A giganti rhizomes of Bentong ginger on display.
I am not sure whether it is for sale or not because picture captured by hubby.
 While waiting for our dinner, we enjoyed a friend's special tea.
  The first dish to arrive at our table - Deep fried fragrant salted chicken.
Signature dish of the restaurant - Steamed Tilapia with Bentong ginger.
 We ordered 2 fishes for 5 people @ RM22 for a bigger fish.
The smaller fishes sold out.
 Stir fried mix veggie of lotus root, celery, baby corn, mushroom, green peas, gingko seeds and white fungus.
 And our favourite - Sambal Petai which truly deserves our praise.
A big thank you to our friend who treated us this yummy & hearty dinner.
Planning to return soon with another group of foodie friends.
He isn't really being slow about His promised return,
even though it sometimes seems that way.
But He is waiting,
for the good reason that He is not willing that any should perish,
and He is giving more time for sinners to repent.
(2 Peter 3:9, TLB)

  6. I didn't know that Rawang is famous for steam fish. RM22 is a very good price for the fish. I love steamed tilapia with ginger but I don't like that the fish looks like being soaked in the light dark sauce. The shop looks clean and new. What a nice place to eat with good food too.

    1. Mun, its the ginger and the sauce that makes the steamed fish tasty.

    2. To me, a fish is always tasty if it is fresh. I don't like soy sauce soaking it but ginger on the side is ok.

    1. Hi Sharon, the place behind the parking lot is the limestone hills. It is not a park but there is a Chinese temple next to it.

    1. The petai dish is really good! I love it very much. It must have taken a long time for the ginger to grow that size!
