We've found a new place for good Chinese-style roasted meats, thanks to my folks. Ming Chu styles itself a 'roasted restaurant'. Their English may not be good, but their food certainly is. It's an open concept eating place, in an old mall in a non-snazzy locale, but the place is clean, the service is decent (if only in Cantonese and Mandarin), and the roast meats are really good.

| Their display window of roast meats really stimulates the appetite. |
They offer roast chicken, duck, char siew and pork (siew yok). I really like roast chicken, but we simply could not eat that much meat, so we had half a duck (RM30), a plate of char siew and a plate of siew yok, both RM12 each. We also got a bowl of wantan soup noodles for RM2 (what a steal!) and a plate of fried wantan for RM7.
 |
| The duck was tender, not overly gamey and with very little fat. Very good! |
 |
| The char siew was lean, but moist, and the sauce was really sweet and appetizing. |
 |
| Personally, I feel siew yok has to be fatty to be good, so this was pretty yummy for me. |
 |
| The fried wantan were crispy, light and nearly oil-free. |
 |
| RM2 for a big bowl of plain wantan noodles with vegetables. What a bargain! And it was tasty too! |
 |
| Even the pickled green chillies and the chili sauce were good! |
The chicken rice only cost RM1.50 per helping, and it was as rich, yellow and creamy as the best chicken rice I have ever had. Chinese tea was 80 sen for a large glass, and there was no government tax. The meal for four, which could have fed six, came up to RM74.95. Really good value!
