Goldview Hakka Food Restaurant, Paramount

My sister brought my family to this Hakka restaurant which serve home cook style dishes like yam buttons. There is nothing fancy about this family restaurant with simple setting but the thing I like was halfway through our meal, the lady boss (Si Tau Poh) went around every table to ask whether the dishes served are ok or not. Goldview Hakka Food Restaurant is located opposite the post office and Giant in Paramount, PJ. It is not hard to find this place and there are lots of good eateries here as well. We ordered Pork Stomach Soup, Wine Chicken (Hua Tiao), Hakka Yam Abacus, Long Beans fried with Roast Pork and stir fried Romaine Lettuce (Yau Mak). The total bill for 7 adults and 1 toddler came up to be RM64. This is the first time I ate Hakka Yam Abacus. The yam abacus with are cooked with rice flour are fried with mushroom, dried prawns (hae bee) and black fungus. If you have not eaten this dish before, very likely it will take you some time to acquire the taste. The yam abacus is springy and taste good! Since the yam abacus is shaped like real abacus beads, you can use them to calculate your dinner bill...ha ha ha!

The dark soya sauce Wine Chicken was rather flavourful and my elder kids like it very much. It was garnished with Chinese parsley and served in a clay pot.

The Pork Stomach soup was a little bland in taste but there were lots of ingredients inside. Probably they didn’t add a lot of MSG or salt in it. This is the first time I ate pork stomach soup with oyster mushroom and straw mushroom. It is nice to drink the piping hot soup.

There is nothing to shout about the long beans fried with roast pork. We ordered this dish because my kids love long beans. Same goes for the stir fried Yau Mak (Romaine Lettuce).

  18. I have tried a lot of hakka food when I was on my vacation in china. Not a fan of it because it didnt taste like the normal ordinary chinese food i eat usually. I guess I just didn't get use to it :)

    Have a lovely day!!
