Luen Fong's history dated back to 80 years ago when it was started by the present owner's grand parent. The present owner, Choong ( We affectionately call him Lou Choong) is one my my primary schoolmates. ( SJKC Thong Hon) . The only Chinese school in Tanjong Tualang. You won't miss it as you are entering Tanjong Tualang on your left. All my family members inclusive of my parents received their Chinese education in this school. When we were kid, there were only three restaurants namely Luen Fong, Sun Mee Fong and Kong Kee, but it has mushroomed to 11 now. These are the three restaurants we got a chance to see those Hong Kong celebrities having their meal here 40 years ago when we were still young school kids. The prawns then are too expensive for us local kids. Of all the restaurants, Luen Fong served the best Chillies which is the most important ingredient when having prawns. The best size to choose from is the medium one and not the Giant Prawn. The medium one is tender and crunchy whereas, the Giant ( Tai Tou as called by most people) is heavy ( Shell is heavy) and tough. Most of the restaurants here will recommend you the Tai Tou ( Oversize ) Prawn as the only local know what to select. Ask for the medium ( Chong Har ) prawn if you happen to visit this Prawn Town again. The next delicious fish I would like to recommend to you is the 'Lum Kor Yee ' or in KL we call it ' Soon Hock '. To me, this is the best fish as compared to all the good fishes I have ever eaten. The meat is layered , tender and crunchy. The price in Tanjong Tualang is very reasonable as compared to Ipoh and KL. Do not forget to order the Fried Rice which is also my favourite. This is the only restaurant left in the country that fry rice using rubber wood as its energy source. It is just like those smoked meat. It helps to bring out its special aroma using rubber wood as compared to using LPG. This is my 'Must Visit' destination whenever I am back to Ipoh to visit my parent. I feel so proud that my hometown has become a tourist attraction now . Chin , USJ Subang Jaya. You have got the best choice in selecting your prawn feast in Tanjong Tualang.
