Shin Mi Seafood Restaurant


The owner used to teach in Kedah before . 
After the tsunami battered this area, he bought over the 100 year old premise , and has not looked back since.





Plastic chairs, with round makeshift table tops that can turn a small table into one fit for a reunion for 10 , greet you. With steady and not so steady looking whirring fans above, to keep away the searing heat. Yeah, very typical chinese kampung style restaurant you got here.
Good wifi connection too, in case you need it.


Basic order . Fish, kangkong, omelette.
This being Hari Raya, a festive season where no other restaurant or stall was open, we didn't wanna get a nasty surprise once they showed us the bill, so we kept to a minimum.
Unlike most places , the food tastes very homecooked, just like what most Malaysian Chinese households would cook at home . Not commercial recipes. Nice but if for a change.


Very thick and meaty, this red snapper or Ang Choh cost us RM48. Bit too much chinese wine for me in the sauce.Very crispy on the outside with natural sweetness that is just unbeatable. There's something about the waters here that makes seafoods taste so much better than Penang. 


 We're cheapskates when we eat in these places. However, if you think you want some lobster or crabs, you can pick them straight out from the tank.
Sold by weight, by the per 100gm.


How to get there.
It's located just off the main road of a small village


 Let's say, you didn't rent a car for the duration of the stay, they do free pick ups from the following hotels...
Mutiara Burau Bay, The Danna and Berjaya Beach & Spa Resort. 
Contact details all as below


Location : Kuala Teriang, Langkawi

Total damage : less than RM100 for 3 dishes , rice and a couple of drinks.
