The most popular Chinese dinner in Klang Valley is usually of the tai chao (大炒) variety, and while being able to order a huge variety of made-to-order dishes that comes out of a hot kitchen with plenty of fire power is neat, sometimes all you want is few comfort dishes to satisfy the hunger in relatively healthier fashion, such as those on the menu of Chia Yee Salted Chicken restaurant.

Update 2022: this place is permanently closed.

The restaurant is adjacent to the much more popular Da Tuan Yuan at Bandar Baru Klang, a stone’s throw away from Bukit Raja Jusco shopping mall.

The set up is clean, simple, and with minimum fuss. The menu consists of a few pages of choices with some pictures, and there are cutlery’s on the table, with urns of chili sauce strategically placed at a few condiment stations.

For the two of us, we had 1/2 a salted chicken (RM 20), a portion of steamed egg (RM 6), and blanched choy sum (RM 4).

The kampung chicken was smaller in size compared to regular variety, but is pretty firm, flavorful, and presumably healthier due to having less fat and perhaps lack of growth hormones. The steamed egg was done quite nicely, reminding me of the version we had at K.T.L Cheras, there’s a hint of sesame oil in the dish which I liked.

As for blanched choy sum, well, it provided sufficient fiber, vitamin C, and color contrast to the picture, so it did its job well.

Overall it was a simple dinner and one that I sometimes find myself cherish. This is a restaurant we will most likely revisit, since Haze is quite a fan of salted chicken.

    Friends in Ipoh sent me the packets of the ingredients and I tried cooking my own – did not enjoy it much. Maybe I did not know how to go about it.

      suituapui: the proper way is to have the whole chicken cooked in wrapped paper with salt as the medium, so you do need plenty of salt, not something very practical at home.

    The salted chicken slightly looks like roasted one with its brown hue skin

    This restaurant is now closed. The salted chicken is still available for pre-order though. Just call the lady boss, Chia Yee, half an hour in advance.
