After finish visit Bukit Tinggi, we stop by Kampung Bukit Tinggi for lunch. Initially, CS was quite worry that Kampung Bukit Tinggi might be just a small village with nothing just small houses or vegetables farm. This left turn from Karak Highway proved him wrong. We were quite surprised there are numbers of restaurant along the road. Most of the restaurant written that their specialty dishes are fresh water fish, "kampung chicken", pork trotter dishes and fresh vegetables. Some restaurant even open up their little vegetables farm or fish pond for customers to see. This is really somethings new and interesting to us.
We drove around the road a few times before we picked up 126 restaurant. It had ample of parking lot in front of the restaurant. Once we seated at the table, a waiter or lengzhai walked up to us for order
whole conversation in Chinese mixed Cantonese
Ler: you meh yu? (broken cantonese)
CS: got any fish?

my poor CS was hanging on to his chicken question. However, lucky was just 3 dishes. We were very full after we ate finish all the dishes. Typical Malaysian Chinese restaurant waiters/waitress like to rap their menu. it was really a time to train up my listening skill
