3 weeks agoOverall Rating: 5/5 stars FOOD: 5/5 Asam Fish (RM24) - Thick, sour and spicy sauce with generous fish content. Excellent! Burger Tofu (RM17) - Filled with minced meat, generous gravy, soft and fresh tofu. Delicious comfort food. Dry Shrimp (RM19) - Flavorful with a hint of spice, prawns are perfectly crispy. Stir Fry Potato Leaves (RM15) - Fresh but unfortunately quite bland, could use more seasoning. Marmite Lotus Root (RM17) - Crispy brown exterior with thick, hearty lotus inside. Great texture contrast. Sweet and Sour Ribs (RM19) - Crispy with tangy sauce. Well-executed classic. SERVICE: 4/5 Free water, free tea, and free soup provided—nice touch! Long wait times though, need to queue sometimes. Pro tip: Come around 5pm to avoid the dinner queue. ATMOSPHERE: 3/5 No air conditioning, only big fans available. Gets noisy but you can still hold conversations. It’s a typical kopitiam-style setting. VALUE: 5/5 6 medium-sized dishes for 8 pax—portions were sufficient and everyone left very full. Brown rice RM2, white rice RM1.80 (small). Total RM125.40 for 8 pax! Incredible value for the quality and quantity! WOULD I RETURN? Absolutely Yes
