Kota Tinggi and Penggarang Eating

A bunch of greedy friends and I headed to JB for some good eating one sunny Sunday, starting off bright and early for breakfast at a roadside bak kut teh stall in Kota Tinggi. It's past the road to Desaru, identifiable by a lot of cars parked outside a shack, as well as the 100plus sign.

Half of the spread that we ordered

Tau pok and golden mushrooms

The pork ribs that came with tau kee on top as well as canned button mushrooms

There was also some liver/kidney stuff that looked yuck but my friends ate them up

The ribs were pretty good - they were soft and meaty.

The pork trotter was also quite nice, but a little salty

Nice with rice

Everything cooked with charcoal  - made a big difference to the aroma

After whiling away the time, we headed to Penggarang for a seafood lunch.

This place was meant to be good for lobsters - they were kept in tanks outside

We ordered some fried kangkong - very ordinary


We ordered quite a few other things as well

First up was the lobster with a herbal sauce - it was very light in flavour, and it was good that the lobster was fresh so the flavours showed up very nicely

Sambal lala

Very fresh as well - and not sandy.

A seafood tofu mix - ordinary, but decent

The shimmering sand lobster, coated with some flour. This was more tasty than the herbal version. Think a salted egg version would really be quite brilliant.
