Explore the flavors of Restoran Ummi Seafood, offering a diverse menu of affordable Malaysian dishes from savory dishes like Paprik Ayam to unique Kuey Teow. Located in Tanjong Karang, it's a beloved spot for locals and seafood lovers alike.
Restoran Ummi Seafood, nestled in the heart of Tanjong Karang, Selangor, serves a vibrant array of Malaysian coastal flavors that truly capture the essence of traditional seafood cuisine. This humble eatery, located at 23 Jalan Desa Mawar 1/19, offers more than just a meal—it delivers a nostalgic and authentic dining experience that locals and visitors alike cherish.
The standout dishes here are nothing short of exceptional. The Siakap Masak Halia is a masterclass in balancing bold flavors. Fresh sea bass cooked with aromatic ginger slices bursts with a fragrant, zesty warmth that is both soothing and invigorating. Meanwhile, the Ikan Merah 3 Rasa (three-flavor red snapper) is a delightful blend of sweet, sour, and spicy notes that dance on the palate, showcasing the chef’s skill in marrying contrasting tastes into harmony.
Another dish that commands attention is the Ketam Masak Blackpepper. The crab’s natural sweetness is amplified by a robust black pepper sauce that clings to each succulent bite. This dish perfectly exemplifies the “kampung” or village-style cooking approach—simple yet unforgettable.
Beyond seafood, Restoran Ummi offers a variety of Malaysian fried rice options that complement its main dishes wonderfully. The Nasi Goreng Daging and Nasi Goreng Paprik, both priced affordably at MYR 9.10, carry deep, rich flavors from wok-frying over high heat, infused with spices and fresh ingredients—adding a comforting familiarity that warms the soul. The Nasi Goreng Pattaya, wrapped in a soft omelette and served with a dash of tangy sauce, is another highlight worth trying for its unique presentation and harmonious flavors.
For meat lovers, the Daging Masak Merah stands out with tender beef simmered in a spicy, tangy red sauce, while the Daging Masak Kicap offers a savory soy-based alternative that feels deeply satisfying. Each dish is crafted with attention to detail, embodying authentic Malaysian home-style cooking.
To cleanse the palate, the hot lemon juice at MYR 3.20 refreshes with its bright, citrusy tang—a perfect end to a hearty meal.
