During my recent visit, I decided to try out something new. After all, we all need a little shakeup in our routine these days! I randomly started reading reviews of each and every eaterie located in Kuala Kubu Bharu town (it's not too hard given that it's a small town :p) and found this place.
Chicken Chop & Pork Chop!
Wong Ng Kee is located on the same row as Sun Sun Nam Cheong. Like Sun Sun Nam Cheong, the interior was rather old school and reminded me a lot of my hometown.
The people running Wong Ng Kee seems to be all senior citizens who really know what they're doing. I visited on a Monday afternoon, and the shop was empty when we arrived but the seats got filled up with hikers shortly.
The menu is written on the whiteboard - all in Chinese characters. They serve dishes from chicken rice, char siew rice, noodles, Chinese "dai chow" dishes etc etc. There are a few news clipping featuring the restaurant.
I was feeling the pressure from staring at the menu for too long so I decided to go for their "must-try" - Their Chicken Chop with Mushroom sauce & pork chop

The coffee here was thick & rich - just how I like it! Even though it doesn't have the layer of foam on top which I'd love, it was a delectable treat on a hot sunny afternoon.
Pork Chop RM16
Chicken Chop with Mushroom Sauce RM16
Served with a side of fries & fried eggs, with a few slices of cucumber.
The chicken chop served here is different from other Hainanese restaurants I've tried - the crust enclosing the chicken & fries is crispier - corn starch, I suppose. You can opt for the usual tomato-based sauce instead too.
I have to say the portion was huge! The chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy outside. Yums!
Similar to the Chicken Chop, the pork chop was encrusted in a crispy, cornstarch crust, served with a tomato-based sauce, fries, fried eggs and a few slices of cucumber.
Verdict: Definitely would visit this place when I'm in Kuala Kubu Baru the next time :D The food portion is huge and they are open for dinner too! The service can be a little slow, as there were only a few staffs and they seem to cook one dish at a time, but no complaints! After all, let's take a step back and enjoy the old town charm a little.
