“ We were too hungry after a long day journey. So we made a quick order of some 8 dishes and finished them all before remembering the photos. Most dishes were good. We were not filled after the 8 so we repeated a couple of them: The Penang Kew Teo and Dry shrimp stirred fried vegetable. They are ordinary dishes available in almost every Chinese restaurants in Malaysia. But this restaurant makes them tastefully good. Staff is friendly and tables spaciously and comfortably apart. ”
