It was indeed a good way to end the week - a dinner with fellow QQQ alumni members. To say the least, it was a gathering for a group of weasels, minus its Chairperson in UK. Attendance was abysmal, only 6 members and one honorary member showed up. In any case, oh yes, we did enjoy dinner very much.
The said dinner was held in Kum Lun Tai Restaurant (non-halal) at Sri Petaling. Closely located to a Shell gas station, parking was easy. Business was very quiet for a Friday evening - only 3 tables all in all and one group in a function room. Service was reasonable. We ordered about 5 dishes and one soup.
As dictated by tradition, we started the night with a salmon Yu Sang - which is essentially salad with slices raw salmon. Taste - it was pretty ordinary, not the best, not the worst.
Soup ordered by a fellow member, a soup made of taufu. The taste resembled shark fins soup, but this was certainly more environmentally friendly. No sharks were harmed. Neither were our wallets. I would say it is a very good substitute for sharks fin soup - tasted about the same, somewhat starchy, with strips of taufu, some prawns, some crab meat and it was not oily.
The dishes were sliced fish with spring onions, a lemon chicken, vegetarian dish and sweet and sour prawns. All the dishes were very tasty, fresh, not extremely oily and would pretty much be that of a typical Chinese restaurant in Malaysia minus the lard.
To sum it up, yes, we finished all the food. Hmmm. Come to think about it, there were only two guys. These gals sure have an appetite. The bill - about RM 300 which was reasonable given the ambiance (not by the roadside with a wok next to you) and the quantity and quality of the food.
So yes, the alumni would surely return to Kum Lun Tai for another meeting in the near future.
