New Year Dinner with Family @ Icon Kitchen, Bukit Jalil

Had a family dinner to usher into the new year.
Initially we decided to dine-in at our usual place (Tasty Wok Bukit Jalil), but that shop was not opened on 1st Jan, so we headed to a nearby restaurant - Icon Kitchen
It was crowded on a Saturday evening despite already past 8.
We went to get a table on the first floor which has lesser people and better distancing between tables.
ordered an asam pedas steamed tilapia.
The long beans gave some crunch to the dish...sour with mild spicy yet so appetising!
minced pork tofu & stir fried romaine lettuce in 'fuyu' (fermented beancurd)
yes, this is superb! the minced pork is so flavorful and good to eat with rice
We also ordered a plate of salted egg deep fried squid. It was served with fries - all coated in salted egg. Killer dish! i swept clean this whole plate.
lastly, a more conventional 'dai-chow' dish - Sweet and sour pork
Overall a satisfying dinner despite the long wait. The dishes were all nicely done with taste and texture all hit the right note.
Total damage: RM146.75 for 5 pax

You found an alternative 'usual place'! Food looks delicious ad pricing is so reasonable.

Price looks ok. Did your father eat with you all? If yes, then he can only eat from a limited dishes and not the fish and not the squid?
