Do not judge the book by its cover. Nestled in the back lanes is one of Butterworth’s oldest surviving Hainanese restaurants, Bee See Heong which was established in 1962. Its cuisine, through the past half-century, has incorporated local Chinese, Malay & Indian influences. The current owner-chef is Choo Ah Sai, the son of the founder, Choo Ah Meng. The eatery is especially famous for its prawn curry and crisp deep fried fish with a thick soy caramel sauce.
