Kak Nik Patin House

We have been frequenting Kak Nik's humble bistro and every time come away with a wonderfully full belly, satiated with her signature spicy 'patin tempoyak' ('patin' fish cooked in a fermented durian gravy). This isn't for everybody, as tempoyak can be an acquired taste. However,she's got loads of other dishes available as 'nasi berlauk' i.e. ready cooked dishes you could select yourself. She gets her patin fish from the Pahang River in Temerloh, so it is always super fresh with sweet tender flesh. She's got other seafood available too, along with chicken, beef (the beef in dark sauce is good) and a number of veggies including 'ulam' (raw veggies). To top everything, Kak Nik herself is really a wonderfully friendly and warm personality who welcomes anyone from all walks of life. If you want a taste of the Malay food experience, test it out for - if you're a tempoyak fan! And incidentally - the prices certainly are a steal!

We began trying to find Ikan Patin late this past year before we found this restaurant sometime this past year. We visited his homeland in Pahang an found it nearly such as this one in the center of KL yet much less pricey as otherso-called patin specialist. Although nowadays the restaurant is obstructed to road works and the parking area gets more limited, the inconvenience pays if we sit and revel in the milder taste of patin tempoyak of Kak Nik. Free gravy, free white rice, reasonable overall prices.

The very best ikan patin masak tempoyak in KL. It has plenty of choices and good in taste. Must try here in the event that you come to KL. Close to KTM Pantai Dalam.
