This restaurant is located in a residential area. I like the atmosphere of this restaurant. It has a lot of antiques. They sell Hokkien mee and kaya and toast. They have seafood Hokkien mee. The Hokkien mee is reasonable. However, i find that the added fish doesn't add to the taste. The kaya and toast is well done.

The food here is pretty good. I had the big prawns Hokkien Mee, around RM20, and a pumpkin barley drink, about RM5.90 if I remember correctly. The Hokkien Mee is served in a claypot, which keeps the heat right until the last bite – a nice touch. I love the ambience and décor, a charming mix of Thai and Chinese styles. You can feel the owner’s effort in creating a cosy, antique-inspired space, almost like dining in their own home. Prices are at typical café levels. Service seems to be handled by just two people. There’s no visible price list, so you’ll need to ask item by item. This is the part I disliked. The place is tucked away in a residential area – easy to miss without a signboard.

Nestled in a residential neighborhood, this cafe may not be immediately visible. Once you spot the familiar Chinese clay tile roof with sweeping curvature on the corners, be ready to step into what looks like an old Chinese inn. We came here for her famous Penang Hokkien Noodle, which may taste like Singapore's version of Prawn Noodle. The savory broth is rich with the sweetness of prawn and hits the spot immediately upon the first sip. They have many other traditional dishes worth trying. Note that parking may be challenging on a busy day, and they are only open from 7:30am to 2pm everyday except Wednesday.

This place was recommended by someone to me. I was also told that this place had their menu in Chinese so if I’m okay with it, I can give it a try..Well nowadays everything it’s in your hands..OUR BELOVED HANDPHONE with GOOGLE TRANSLATE!! .. It cannot be as difficult as old times, right? My son and I visited this place on a Saturday morning..It’s a home converted in to a shop..Very well designed and maintained..Nice ambience..I was impressed with the way it looked..We were the only customers at that moment..We sat down to order and this guy comes to take our orders..I was prepared to Google the menu but since it was not busy at that moment, he nicely and fluently explained the menu for us...I was glad he did that… Drinks were good, and really kao..I liked it..The wan tan noodles was excellent too..My son loves wan tan noodles and he is very particular about his noodles.He can distinguish each and every wan tan noodles he eats..This was nice and chewy and it reminded me the very first time I tried wan tan noodles. I would definitely recommend this place. Parking may be an issue as it’s situated in a residential area but I guess we will be lucky to get one..Please do not park in front of someone’s home..
