For lunch, my father-in-law wanted some local Malay cooking. Tempoyak, ikan patin and all. On the last few occasions we were back in Kuala Kangsar, we went to Tasik Raban for his fix.

It was a local Malay Food restaurant located about 30 minutes out of Kuala Kangsar. The main draw there was the fish. They have the best, fresh local catch. Located on the main road to Gerik, it was popular among the motorcycle riders making the journey to the East Coast.

Place was still emptyLooks fresh, but not my kind of fish ...Ulam of courseAnd the grillTime to head homeOn a Monday afternoon such as today, there were hardly any customers and we were able to pick and choose the fish we wanted from the grill. Anita loved the food more than I did - I was more of a sea water seafood guy rather than a fresh water fish fan. And, I was definitely not a fan of tempoyak.
