After our visit to New Secret Restaurant at Jalan Ong Yi How, Butterworth, hubby always wanted to try the similar type of field frog porridge. Now, we have no worries, as New Secret SP Restaurant just started their business in March 2009. It's located at Lagenda Heights, Sungai Petani, which is at the same row as Old Town Kopitiam. It's directly opposite the Village Mall. It's very convenient for us to pay a visit on our weekly trip back to Sungai Petani. :)
A clay pot of plain porridge is a must to go with the field frog. You can also order the eel if you do not have an appetite for the field frogs. Compared to the previous one we had in Butterworth, this pot of porridge tastes much better. The previous one contained lightly burnt smell, while this one is just nice. Smooth and sticky. It costs RM2 (2 pax).
We tried their "ginger and spring onion" field frog (姜葱田鸡) per our last dine in, so this time we went for their "Kung Poh" field frog (宫保田鸡) instead. This is a good choice if you like spicy stuff. I like it very much, but hubby was sweating badly during the meal. Haha...Both of us like the tender and succulent field frog meat. A pot of medium serving field frog in clay pot costs for RM18.
We ordered an extra dish, the "ginger & spring onion" eel (姜葱鳗鱼). The meat is very smooth and juicy. I believe it contains collagen which is good for skin :D. This is another delicious dish to go with porridge. A small serving of eel is RM9 per pot.
How could we forget about the greens? We ordered a plate of lettuce garnished with meat floss and oyster sauce.
From our observation, there's still room for improvement. Perhaps if they reorganize the seating places, customers will feel more convenient as currently the spaces between tables are too small. We feel quite uneasy as our chairs seems touching other customer's.

Porridge in a claypot should taste really good, too bad I don't take field frogs, they look very delicious. Can't believe that the lettuce attracts me the most, love meat floss a lot!
