Restoran Hup Kee, an old-school Chinese restaurant located on Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, has been serving delicious dishes for 60 years. The third generation now runs the establishment, keeping their grandparents' legacy alive with signature dishes like Sweet and Sour Pork (RM13) and Fried Prawn and Taro (RM24). The restaurant is known for its clean and welcoming atmosphere, with tables and chairs in striking fire engine red lining the front.
One of their specialties is Sweet and Sour Pork, which they serve in round shapes instead of the traditional diamond-shaped batter-covered meat pieces. The dish has evolved from being made with pork belly to lean pork, appealing to diners who prefer healthier options. Another popular dish is Fried Prawn and Taro, which features crispy golden batter, bouncy prawns, and fluffy taro sticks. This dish may not look impressive, but it's incredibly satisfying, much like fast food.
The restaurant also offers other traditional dishes such as Deep Fried Ma Yau Fish with its syrup-like soy sauce and fine crispy shreds of ginger, and Siong Tong Spinach, a unique variation of the classic spinach dish. The food at Restoran Hup Kee is a perfect blend of old-school Chinese flavors and modern presentation, making it a favorite among locals.
