A Good Catch at Sek 17, PJ

If you love steam fish, this place is for you! Located at the other end of the mamak (nearby Seventeen Mall), this place is a hit especially for those who love healthy and simple food. Mom and dad first discovered this place and finally took me here for dinner one day and I fell in love with its simple dishes.

Address: 1270-1271, Jalan 17/31, Seksyen 17, 46400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor

Their menu is not fancy with many choices but good enough for a decent healthy dinner.
They open as early as 5pm. Be there early to beat the hungry crowd.  My recommendation would be their Steamed Leopard Coral Goruper and Steamed Dragon Goruper. Sometimes these fish can go out of stock if you go too late. My first visit was at 8.30pm. It was still crowded but not that much as compared to my second visit at 7.30pm on another day. I had to walk off cause there were just too many tables unfed. Lesson learnt! Go earlier to beat the crowd.

The crowd at 6pm.

This was the first fish variant I tried there. The Steamed Leopard Coral Goruper. It is slightly more costly for this fish but it's worth every penny! This portion alone came up to around RM60. The meat is super fresh! The killer sauce is what makes this dish sooooo gooooood. Yeah! Some secret sauce the Uncle use for all his fish dishes is amazing! 

 This is the Steamed Dragon Goruper. I had this on a separate visit. This 500g cost about RM60 too. Meat is also very fresh and as good. I stole a glimpse at Uncle's fish stock in the cold ice bucket. Here are his catch! All super fresh!



The other must try is the steamed egg. It really does melt in your mouth!

The secret behind these great tasting dishes besides its killer sauce is because it's steamed to perfection in this multi-layered steamer in high temperature.

 I would certainly recommend this place if you love steam fish but do go early as it can be really hectic waiting for your dishes if you are hungry due to the overwhelming crowd especially during peak dinner time!
Hope you'll find your good catch here too!
Enjoy!
