Intro

Thai Garden Village or known as TGV is located in between Kepong Baru and Jinjang Utara. The entrance is located near at the Shell Petrol Station, somewhere in the industrial area behind the World Motor Trade. 


The location was used to be a food court that is closed years ago and the owner of TGV spent a lot in renovation in order to provide the best Thai environment to their customers.


Besides authentic Thai food, TGV also provides BBQ seafood if the customers wish to have a different taste during their visit. The environment is cool enough and the service is good. A very nice experience to enjoy your meal at TGV. Do check out the reviews and websites for more info and picture.

Chan Chan Yong Tau Fu (真真酿豆腐) is one of the many Yong Tau Fu restaurants available around Kepong. It has been receiving a lot of good reviews in the internet via food blogs. Even with the gaining popularity, the food quality still maintained at a very high standard.

Located within the commercial area nearby Tesco Kepong in Menjalara, Chan Chan YTF is often populated with customers in their restaurant that consists of two shop lots. Besides the standard Yong Tau Fu, they also serve side dishes like asam fish, braised yam pork belly etc.

Bak Kut Teh

What is the most famous food in Malaysia if it's not other than Bak Kut Teh? Orginated from Klang, this non-halal dish is gaining global popularity among Chinese community around the world of its unique taste and medical properties of various Chinese herbs used.

Original quote from Wikipedia:





Bak kut teh (Chinese肉骨茶Pe̍h-ōe-jī: bah-kut-tê) is a Chinese soup popularly served in MalaysiaSingaporeMainland ChinaTaiwan and the Indonesian island of Riau (where there is a predominant Hoklo and Teochew community) and also, cities of neighbouring countries like Batam of Indonesia and Hat Yai of Thailand.
The name literally translates as "meat bone tea", and, at its simplest, consists of meaty pork ribs simmered in a complex broth of herbs and spices (including star anisecinnamonclovesdang guifennel seeds and garlic) for hours.[1] However, additional ingredients may include offal, varieties of mushroom, choy sum, and pieces of dried tofu or fried tofu puffs. Additional Chinese herbs may include yu zhu (rhizome of Solomon's Seal) and ju zhi (buckthorn fruit), which give the soup a sweeter, slightly stronger flavor. Light and dark soy sauce are also added to the soup during cooking, with varying amounts depending on the variant. Garnishings include chopped coriander or green onions and a sprinkling of fried shallots.
Bak kut teh is usually eaten with rice or noodles (sometimes as a noodle soup), and often served with youtiao / cha kueh [yau char kwai] (strips of fried dough) for dipping into the soup. Soy sauce (usually light soy sauce, but dark soy sauce is also offered sometimes) is preferred as a condiment, with which chopped chilli padi and minced garlic is taken together. Chinese tea of various kinds (the Tieguanyin variety is especially popular in the Klang Valley area of Malaysia) is also usually served in the belief that it dilutes or dissolves the copious amount of fat consumed in this pork-laden dish. Bak kut teh is typically a famous morning meal. The Hokkien and Teochew are traditionally tea-drinking cultures and this aspect runs deep in their cuisines.
