Going up to Genting or returning from it will no longer be a hassle, or rather, an unpleasant journey when you take a pit stop here at Restoran Har Wong at Gotong Jaya. It's located right at the base of Genting, which isn't too far away. Operated for more than 20 years, Restoran Har Wong is the pioneer when it comes to seafood and some of their signature dishes constantly replicated by their competitors. To find out what so special about the place, do continue!

Starting with the homemade tau fu pok as it is one of Haw Wong Restaurant’s signature item. It comes in a set of 6, with each tau fu pok stuffed with a generous amount of fish paste and spring onion. Served in a milky ‘xiong tong’ broth that complimented that homemade tau fu pok with its rich, creamy and savoury edge.

The dish also comes with a side of homemade chill sauce that from a distance, looks ridiculously orange. The flavour of the chill on the other hands, makes it absolutely delicious. 

Followed by a serving if braised yam pork, a dish that is rather popular in any Chinese restaurant. It is done so by layering pork belly slices upon yam slices and repeat till a certain thickness is achieved. Braising both together and that is where the sauce is extracted from. So what you’ll get by the end is a dish filled with a good amount of texture and flavour with a savoury edge. It goes perfectly well with some rice. 

For those who enjoy ginger or perhaps searching for a little zing, do try out their Ginger with Vermiceli & Scallop. At the bottom, you'll find a good load of vermecili and right on top, a generous spread of minced garlic mix. Simply mix the vermecili and ginger thoroughly and enjoy the burst of flavour alongside fresh, sweet and plump scallops. 

This dish has been the heritage and forefront of Restoran Har Wong for 20 years. After all, the name itself literally translates into "Prawn King" in English so delivering a salivating plate of huge prawns certainly isn't an issue. 

The prawns are not only huge in size, but the flesh is plump, succulent and packed with natural sweetness as well. It is also pan-seared and cooked with their homemade special sauce, which has a sweet and savoury edge to the prawns, without compromising the essence of it. Getting a good load of high-cholesterol through these beauties is definitely well worth the price and definitely comes highly recommended.
