Back in December in Taiping, the lala dish (there are about 4 to 5 ways cooked offered by the restaurant New Bee Guan) turned out to be the freshest we have ever tasted anywhere in Malaysia. Can't say we tasted that many but it was outstanding here....Locally known as lala, it is actually a type of clam found in Malaysian waters.
The "kam heong" meaning sauteed with curry powder was savoury but kinda mask the freshness of the clams.
The best and sweetest - in superior soup base and claypoot.
