One of the few remaining old shops in the city center, preserving traditional flavors — most importantly, the warmth of human connection. Despite being in a prime location, the prices are reasonable.

One of the old restaurant in Chinatown area serving up traditional Malaysian Cantonese food. Food was great!

We passed this place for few times, on our last night in KL decided to give it a try. At first we were afraid to order as we did not see any price list on the menu, fortunately there was another menu on the walk with pricing. Not too expensive for sharing portion We ordered fried noodle, sweet and sour chicken, some stir fry pak choy, and fried chicken (recommended by the young owner) and yes the fried chicken was sooo good. 81rm for 4 dishes which is ok if you eat with 3-4 people. Will come back again in our next visit to KL

After 4 weeks of travelling in Europe a friend brought me here to help me get over my jet lag and to rebalance. My body was calling out loudly for some noodles n this was answered here. Yes, very good noodles and I will definitely be coming back here again next time I'm in KL. Very warm friendly owner n waiters as well that made for a very nice welcome back to Base Camp Malaysia ????????

Fried Beef ginger horfun is really cook to perfection with extra Wok hey. Definitely order their sanghar (prawn) sang mee as it’s a yum. A real kungfu Cantonese style cooking. 2 noodles for single pax is $81

Great old Cantonese food served here. Everything is fresh and tasty. Boss is very welcoming. Fried fish is crispy with mild spicy nyonya sauce. Pork belly simply melts into your mouth.
