Very nice char koay teow, but that's about it. It used to be a very good value for a vegetarian one, but it has since raised its prices and the portions are small. My spouse ordered a laksa and it was no where near as good as Laksa King or Chef Legenda. Good for a quick bite, but it won't fulfil.

I got the blood cockles char koay teow which was amazing. They are generous with the blood cockles and is really reminiscent of food back home. I got it with extra wok hei and you can really taste it. There’s also pork lard in there adding an extra crispiness to the dish. The prawns tasted pretty fresh too. The dish is quite oily, so I’d probably recommend getting less oil if that’s not something you like. On the side we got the lobak and spring roll combo which was very tasty as well. The lobak is very meaty and goes really nicely with the chilli sauce. The spring roll is delicious too. I got the teh tarik which is good too, not too sweet. Overall this place serves really good food and the restaurant is nice and spacious with friendly staff. I’d highly recommend trying this.

Visited during the busy lunch crowd had to queue but turnover was quick. Curry chicken noodles were fragrant, though a bit too much coconut milk for me and made the soup thick and the thin meehoon soaked it up too fast. Bbq char siu pork was dry and hard to chew. Tried their signature char kway teow but the noodles broke apart so we ended up eating with a spoon instead of chopsticks. Would try to request be with a bit more wok hei

Impressed by delicious Char Koay Teow, the coffee is nice and strong just how I like. They make a nice sweet coconut toast. Very authentic and reasonable price. Highly recommend
