The presentation is very simple, the staff is very professional and seem to have been doing the job for ages. Everything comes normally to them. Staff is quick on recommendations and the food is served in no time. The wall is adorned with black and white pictures from the bygone era. An abacus resting on the counter reminds me of the history of the place pre-calculator.
I ordered the crispy-skinned duck, braised lamb and vegetables. The food tasted great and the chef seems to have mastered the art of perfecting the dishes through years of cooking.
Pork dishes seem to dominate the menu. I ordered homemade fish balls served in sauces. I highly recommend this location for food lovers in Kuala Lumpur.
Other places to eat in Pudu Kuala Lumpur
Pudu is an interesting place to explore local restaurants serving a wide range of Malay Chinese dishes. The area is very commercialized and most of these restaurants services the affluent business community. The quality of the food is amazing. Here are some restaurants I explored along the way. Some restaurants have over 30-40 dishes and you will be charged based on the number of servings.
The food includes vegetables, egg dishes, meat dishes and desserts as well. The average meal costs under RM 10.
