One of my favorite restaurants. Even since moving away from KL, we always visit here for a meal when in town. Homestyle Hakka and Cantonese cooking with reasonable prices and portions. One dish we love is braised fried fish with fucuk. Not sure the proper name of this dish as I’m not Chinese, haha. I just order it that way. The place is small so it’s wise to make a reservation if going for dinner on the weekends. Parking can be tricky but there is a small parking lot just up the street on the same side of the road as the restaurant. They have a printed menu with with many items but no prices are listed. Make sure to ask if not sure. Rest assured, prices are reasonable. If you’re an English speaker, no one but the old lady and one younger lady speaks English and she’s not always there. So be prepared to piece together your Hakka or Cantonese with Bahasa to get what you want. Or just choose from the menu.
This place is very nostalgic for me and I always take the chance to stop in. It’s not fancy or innovative, just simple...
Read moreWe came to this cozy little restaurant at the famous Jalan Pudu Ulu food street for lunch after our regular haunt, Chuan Kee just next door was closed without prior notice. However we weren't disappointed as the dishes we ordered were served in big portion and palatable as well for us. The yam basket with sweet and sour pork was one of the biggest we have seen with generous fillings of meat and pineapple. The homemade tofu come with condiments like roasted pork and vegetables in claypot style while the third dish of stirred fried 4 heavenly kings comprising petai, brinjal, long beans and okra were just as awesome. The generous servings exceeded our capacity and literally we had to stuff ourselves to the hilt. Though the place is compact, it is well ventilated and comfortable to dine in. We have an alternative choice in case our favorite is not opened or we're...
Read moreAn old established food joint that serves scrumptious Hakka food. Although small, the environment for dining was cool and comfortable.
We ordered the following: Woo tow kau yoke Salted steamed kampong chicken Steamed wan yue with minced ginger Stir fried kailan Claypot egg and shredded ginger in rice wine
All dishes were served in generous portions. I particularly enjoyed the Claypot dish and there was a generous serving of rice wine that complimented the dish! Full of umami flavour!
The salted steamed kampong chicken was succulent also. Wan Yue was freshly steamed with loads of minced ginger. The white flaky flesh was scooped up to satisfy our palates.
It was our first time dining here and definitely won't be our last. We came on a Monday but the restaurant still had a good crowd.
Parking is limited and quite a hassle. Best to come early to avoid...
