The siew yuk at Wong Mei Kee is made of dreams. That, and bossman Datuk Robert's years of experience. Bring friends, family or even colleagues (anyone will enjoy it) — just make sure they're a patient bunch because the legendary dish warrants a long wait. The thick strips of Siew Yuk (from RM17) here glisten with three luscious layers: a golden-brown crackling skin, melt-in-your-mouth fat and tender lean meat. Arrive early and secure a seat in anticipation of this crowd-favourite, which only hits the chopping board at 12.30pm. To make your visit all the more worthwhile, order the low-key but also delicious Roast Chicken (from RM25).
Avg price per person: RM25
