張家傳統炭燒福州餅 Diong Gong Piang Kampung Koh Kompia

張家傳統炭燒福州餅, also known as Diong Gong Piang, is a small shop selling traditional Fuchow bagels called kompia / gong pia / gong piang (光饼).  Diong’s versions are the traditional spring onion kompia, and the pork and chive kompia.

Their version of kompia is more ‘bready’ and thicker than the usual ones. Some might complain the floury feel of the kompia and prefer the more popular Cheong Cia Gong Pian in town. However, it does present a different style and some might like it better than the others. Well, at least you don’t need to queue for 30-45 minutes to get your kompia.

Probably due to the unpredictable flow of customers, and the kompia are made fresh in batches, I notice sometimes this shop has a full cart of kompia, ready to be sold, and sometimes with an empty cart waiting for the next batch, you may want to consider calling to pre-order if you don’t want to try your luck.

張家傳統炭燒福州餅 Diong Gong Piang Kampung Koh Kompia Pork and Chive

Because of the thickness, the Pork & Chives Kompia (the ones with sesame on the outside) is a little similar to a dense meat bun with hard crisp outer layer. For me, it is not too hard or floury, as the pork is tender and flavorful. In fact, having a thin one might end up getting overpowered by the pork.

The traditional one comes with a bit of spring onion and infused oil. For this, I do felt the kompia is a little too thick but it wasn’t a deal-breaker. I still enjoy the bite with the crispy oiled outer layer.

2 pieces of Pork & Chives Kompia and 2 pieces of Traditional Spring Onion Kompia costed me RM9.20.

Restoran Lee Chuo Sitiawan Perak

Located just opposite of Kampong Koh market, Restoran Lee Chuo is an inconspicuous stall that sells great and very rare noodles.

The place is famous for its Loh Mee (RM4). The Loh Mee broth is boiled with bamboo shoots and cuttlefish, which make it so good.

Don’t leave just eating the Loh Mee thought, Restoran Lee Chuo’s Asam Laksa (RM4) is also one of the specialties. It resembled Penang Laksa perfectly. But wait… why not try out their Loh Lak? Loh Lak (RM4) is the hybrid of Loh Mee and Asam Laksa. Can you imagine the combinations of savory thick braised sauce with sourish spicy fish broth? Try it.

Next, you gotta try the very rare noodle, called 蛋燕 Dan Yan (RM4), it’s a Fuchou’s egg noodle. I bet you have never experienced this kind of noodle texture. It is a chewy, starchy, springy tapioca noodle.

Don’t forget to take the special assorted condiments such as pickled minced garlic and Kampung Koh chili sauce. There are also many other delicious noodles such as Kampua Mee (RM4), Red Wine Mee Sua, and Spicy Fish Maw Soup so please come with an empty stomach.
