Tong's Kitchen, USJ 19 , A Friendly Neighbourhood Restaurant


This is my second visit to Tong's Kitchen in USJ19 Digital Mall. This restaurant is a popular neighbour hood restaurant and you will notice that most of the patrons know each other so is the owner of the restaurant. I forgot to blog about it during my first visit here. I can see that this restaurant has a good crowd nowadays. There are many families dining in here when I was there for dinner. In fact the place was packed with diners and all the tables were taken.

For a start, we tried out this unique dish, the Volcano Tofu. As per its' namesake, you can actually see the smoke coming out from the tofu! The sauce is nice and a little spicy but I think it would taste nicer if the tofu used is softer type.

The kids love calamari and for a change we ordered fried squid rings with salted eggs in flour batter. You can't go wrong with salted eggs.....! This dish taste really nice! yum yum!

This is the Mongolian Fried Chicken....opppps, sensitive 'word'! ha ha ha! The chicken is fried until crispy and topped with thick flavourful gravy. Red wine vinegar gave the sauce the reddish colour. Alternatively, the red wine vinegar can be substituted with Dry Sherry. The Mongolian Chicken is delicious!
All the dishes that we ate!
I forgot how much we paid for the meal......next time must write it down liao! Sign of getting old......sigh! LOL!

Pete, I have been to this place. The lady boss is very friendly and the food and price are okay to me. I find they put a little too much oil but taste wise is acceptable lah:D Next time you go there, you should go try the roast pork and the bitter gourd soup at the Chinese Resaturant, I think the name is Yip Mun, can't remembering the spelling. It is next a door step from Tong's Kitchen. Cheap and good.

While eating the volcanic tofu must sing this Deep Purple song ~ "Smoke on the *tofu* , a fire in the sky, smoke on the water.."♫..hahaha. Have not tried any Mongolian food before.
