Loong Deng Kee @ Tengkat Tong Shin & M Fragrant Salt Baked Chicken @ Sri Petaling

A couple of stops in the city & the suburbs for Chinese soul food, starting with Tengkat Tong Shin's Loong Deng Kee.

Bak kut teh & herbal broths constitute the intriguing specialities here, served out of enormous dragon-decorated pots.

A protein-rich, piping-hot portion of rib-heavy pork with intestines, sufficient for a light lunch, clocks in at RM10.

Fairly fragrant & flavoursome; could make for a satisfactory supper too, assuming Loong Deng Kee opens through late at night.

Add RM5 for rice & veggies; the free flow of chopped chillies & garlic is complimentary. 

Bouncy-smooth fish balls stuffed with meat in soup are also available.

Second stop: Sri Petaling, for M Fragrant's Ipoh-style salt-baked chicken. 

Meaty, tender & savoury but not unendurably salty; this also works for a fuss-free afternoon meal.

Inexpensive; a simple serving with rice & soup won't breach the two-figure mark (think it was RM8).
