"Restaurant was empty when I went around 745pm/Wed. Boss greeted us n took our order. 1) 3x Kam heong medium meat crab @rm48 - tasted nothing like Kam heong style but it was delicious nonetheless Price is unbelievably CHEAP! 2) lemon steamed grouper @RM60 - tangy n a little spicy broth. Nice n fish is fresh Singapore fried meehoon @rm10 - very nicely stir-fried with loose texture. Not a bit of lump at all. There's bits of xia mi detected in the dish too! Pandan chicken @rm12 - crispy n aromatic. Again, price is cheap! 5) steamed prawns in egg white @rm25 - not the smoothest steamed egg white but it's still nice. The prawns are fresh, crunchy but size wise? Petite! Overall dining experience was good! The lady owner/cashier seemed arrogant as some commented but she's pretty OK. Don't let her look at it misjudge her! Will definitely come again when I visit SP!"

"Firstly, the place was spacious and clean. The waitress was very attentive. Gave us various suggestions. However, most of the food tasted good. But I wouldn't recommend "sotong goreng". Was very very salty. Kinda pricy."
