Nam Heong

Previously we just get takeaways from Nam Heong. This time we dined in after waiting for about 15 minutes for seats.

Saw this new item on the menu - nasi lemak (coconut milk rice) with pork curry so ordered it - MYR15.90 nett. I like the fully cooked crispy-at-the-edge egg. The pork curry is cooked with pork belly so the fats are layered in between lean meat.

Top view - fried egg, peanuts, anchovies, cucumber, luncheon meat, pork curry, squid sambal, long beans with rice. Taste good but then someone chided me for eating nasi lemak since it is not a specialty dish of Nam Heong in Ipoh.

We just enter the orders ourselves through the tablet in the photo above. White coffee (hot) at MYR4.4 nett and just one egg tart at MYR3.20 nett.

The many thin layers of pastry crust is very crispy and as we ate it while it is still hot/warm, the pastry crust tastes like cream crackers which we like. The egg custard-like-filling is soft, warm and melt in our mouths. Worth to eat this.

Prawn siew mai (dumpings) at MYR6.50 nett. I am not sure whether there are 3 or 4 pieces since we may have eaten one piece leaving 3 pieces behind. I suspect the prawn fillings are mixed with pork meat to firm it up. Taste is acceptable.
