Kam Long Ah Zai

We all heard about the famous curry fish head that is within walking distance from Johor Bahru's City Square. The place is quite popular and is always packed with queues and full house. It has a good history of serving curry fish head for more than 30 years.

The preparation of fish curry was open concept and you can see it all while queuing up waiting to be seated.

Fish Curry Prepartion

Pots after pots of Fish Head Curry was prepared and boiled. You can feel how busy and fast pace the staff were.

Preparation

I was more than surprise to see that Restaurant Kam Long is solely selling Curry Fish Head & Meat in different portion with no other side dishes. Restaurant opens from 8am to 4pm however during mid day when I was there, the fish tail portion had already been sold out.

Food Menu

Ingredients were pretty standard with Tau Ki, Tomatoes, Ladies Fingers etc.

Fish Head - RM 35 (Medium)

Of course we would prefer the Tail over the head as it is meatier with more flesh but just too bad that the tail portion is sold out.

Ingredients in the pot

The curry was light in taste and perfect to go with a white bowl of rice. The coconut milk taste was fragrant and not over powering. Regarding the spiciness of curry gravy, I guess its the typical Malaysian style of curry that is neither thick nor too thin.

Fish Head Curry

All in all, the fish meat was sweet and tasty, we were all satisfied by its freshness. We were quite lucky to have waited less than 10 minutes to be offered seating. However do bear in mind that you may have to share table with others and queue more as long as 30 minutes. To avoid disappointment, go earlier as fish tail is easily sold out.
