D’Mesra Seafood is a Malay style restaurant
in Port Klang, known for serving seafood, western and tom yam dishes. As far as
Malay restaurants goes, there are already not much publicity about them,
especially the roadside kinds, but it is
for this very reason that one have to venture out to know what's good. D’Mesra
is just another establishment in the midst of seafood restaurants, as expected
in Port Klang, but they rise up with the well maintained taste even
after all this years. The layout is simple, in
an open air setting, perfect to enjoy a fulfilling meal along with the natural
breeze from the sea.
The
menu here has quite the variety, with the added attraction of full set meals.
If you ever come along not knowing exactly what to eat, let them make most of
the choice for you. Perfect for as low as four people to as much as ten people, it supports the idea that
the merrier the better, especially when it comes to food.
Generally the set
consists of a few sources of proteins, a soup, and a form of vegetable. A few
menu choices involved, which can be ordered on its own as well, are the
Tri-flavoured Barramundi, Mixed Tom Yam, and Kailan (Chinese kale) wit Salted
Fish. The Barramundi is a favourite type of fish among the Malay community and
served wonderfully crispy deep fried, with sweet, sour and spicy sauce,
while the tom yam is nicely spicy, as it should be, cooked with a variety of
ingredients in a pot. Another favourite from the west here is the Chicken Chop
that is done right given the fact that it is served in a Malay seafood
restaurant. The service are usually fast unless it’s one of those days where it
is busier than others, so be prepared to be patient and understanding.
