A local delicacy that is loved by many, Fish Head Curry, is
the epitome of heaven in mouth. It never ceases to amaze its eater with
succulent curry gravy that thickly enticing on every sip of spoon yet the
freshness of the fish head does not halt. Restoran Kari Kepala Ikan Jalan Pudu
is among the few places situated in the middle of the city centre that offers a
good dish of fish head curry. Situated, well, along Jalan Pudu, this restaurant
cooks the classic Chinese-style curry with thick coconut milk, an aromatic one with
the flavourful herbs that are packed inside a savoury sweet yet spicy curry
broth.
The fish in used is grouper fish where per serving perhaps is of a hefty one however it is always best to be shared. Restoran Kari Kepala Ikan Jalan Pudu has been around for decades and considered among the pioneers of Chinese restaurant around Kuala Lumpur. Until today the place is always filled with customers especially during night time. Although its fish head curry dish receives the entire spotlight that it deserves but other type of dishes that this restaurant serves is worth a try as well. Roasted pork that seems to be a hit as well is a good pairing with the fish head curry dish aside from its vegetables and dried bean curd dish. Getting a parking might be a little hassle if you are unfamiliar with the place but all the inconvenience will all be worth it after having one of Restoran Kari Kepala Ikan Jalan Pudu’s specialty.
