If I were to translate it to English it will be 'the crying
tiger meat' 😏. Ask the chef I did and here is his reply ‘Harimau
Menangis meat is the part on a cow that is so tender, juicy and nice yet it is
hard for a tiger to reach hence the tiger cried for not being able to taste it’,
so he said. Betul ke cerita ni?
This dish is famous in northern Malaysia as well as southern
Thailand, in Thai it is called Suea Rong Hai and it is usually served with
sticky rice. Their version of the story is that the appearance of the brisket
cut to the skin of a tiger and called it “tiger meat”. When the meat is
grilled, the fat that accumulates in the muscle fibers is melted by the heat
and drops like a tear. Using their imagination, they named the dish “crying
tiger”. (Source : Wikipedia)
Well, whatever the stories are, the meat is truly tender and
juicy. This, I will not lie.
Many wondered, which part lah ‘daging harimau menangis’ nih?
After hours of googling, I have found out (or narrowed
down) to the part that is berdekatan daging batang pinang or specifically di
celah peha bahagian kaki belakang lembu.
