Based on 290 reviewsC'wok Cafe Patin Tempoyak in Temerloh is widely praised for its authentic and flavorful ikan patin tempoyak, noted for its creamy texture and well-balanced taste. Customers appreciate the freshness maintained by batch cooking and the availability of various freshwater fish dishes like lampam and kerai.

Some feedback highlights the early sell-out of popular dishes, suggesting an earlier visit to fully enjoy the menu. Its reasonable pricing combined with unique local flavors makes it a favored choice among both locals and visitors looking for traditional Pahang cuisine.
Stop by for late lunch, most of the dishes are gone (2pm). Suggest to come at 12pm to avoid missing out on the baung, kerai and lampam. Patin was good, not too spicy, right amount of tempoyak. There was seluang fried to bone crispiness, which was something rare. Came here to avoid the overhyped crowded usual patin tempoyak joints.
Easy & many parking. I think the best patin tempoyak I ever had. The tempoyak soup is just superb.
Patin cooked with durian paste (yempoyak) is the best. Thats what we normaly looking for. Other fish also available like fried lampam and Kerai fish. There is a stall selling fresh Sg.Pahang Patin and durian pasye (tempoyak) as well.
Serving what Termerloh is famous for, ikan patin. This is your typical, by the roadside quaint little restaurant which serves ikan patin tempoyak, which is creamy and flavourful. The dish, as according to the owner, are prepared in batches to ensure freshness. The deep fried patin and deep fried ikan lampam ( a fresh water fish) is also available, and worth trying. If you happen to drive along the LPT toward the East Coast, a quick detour to this restaurant won't disappoint you. It is not far away from Temerloh's toll plaza.
