AMAZING
1st SALTED EGG YOLK SOTONG
Kedai Makanan Laut Kebun Kelapa, Pelabuhan Klang
Very tender squid that’s been deep-fried and tossed in a savoury-sweet salted egg yolk sauce. The curry leaves adds an extra dimension to this dish.
2nd IKA YAKI
Sushiya One Utama, Petaling Jaya
Perfectly grilled squid. Somehow the squid had a pleasant 'crunch' and bite to it without being chewy. So addictive.
3rd SOTONG GORENG
Aunty Manju's Home Of Banana Leaf, Kuala Lumpur
If you can’t take the heat of the bone marrow curry, order this. The pieces of squid were crisp on the outside and not at all chewy. So, so good!
REALLY GOOD
4th STEAMED SQUID WITH CHILLI & LEMON
Baan Klang Krung, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon
This was good, spicy and sour with the squid still crunchy. However, I think this poor dish got a little overshadowed by the other dishes that we ordered. Sorry squid. We really didn’t mean to neglect you! 🙈
5th SOTONG KANGKUNG
Cafe Campbell Rd, Petaling Jaya
We thought the kangkung was a slight bit overcooked, but that sauce more than makes up for it. Very moreish!
PRETTY GOOD
6th SALTED EGGS SQUID
Lala Chong Kayu Ara Seafood Restaurant, Petaling Jaya
This one did not travel as well as the other dishes. It’s still tasty, but I think it would have been a lot better had we decided to dine in. (The sudden spike in Covid cases made us opt for delivery instead).
7th GIANT SQUID BENTO
Squid Boy, Subang Jaya
There’s something about this that’s just so addictive... MSG perhaps? 🤣🤣🤣 Anyway, the squid was fried perfectly, tender and not chewy at all and the batter was deliciously crispy. I’ll probably skip the rice next time and just get the squid on its own.
