  "account": "Petaling Jaya, August 17 — Grilled fish remains my favorite, evoking memories of Hing Ket Grill House in Klang, known for its turmeric-dusted stingray and exquisite sweet crab. However, Hing Ket Grill House is too far to dine at frequently, so I turned to FishBar 88 in Seri Setia, formerly known as Sungai Way. After seeing enticing photos on a friend’s Facebook page, I decided to try the place. The couple operating this coffee shop-turned-grill joint uses golden pomfret marinated with turmeric powder, set on a banana leaf and grilled over hot coals. The result is a dry-roasted, smoky dish that sets it apart from traditional grilled fish. The fish, priced at RM35 for 100 grams, is substantial enough for two with a side of rice and another seafood option. Served alongside a fiery green sambal and crunchy raw onions, the dish offers a balanced blend of heat and texture. Despite its larger size, the price for the whole fish is RM55, making it a worthwhile choice for a flavorful, satisfying dinner.",
