The staff here were very friendly and welcoming, so we decided to stop here for some dimsum and drinks.

Their Hong Kong style egg tarts were not bad, each one encased in many layers of flakey pastry. However, it wasn't served warm, which would have made them so much better.

Price: $4.80 for 3 pieces

While these weren't too bad taste-wise, my gripe is that they weren't served hot. And my firm belief is that chicken which is served neither hot nor crispy ain't fried chicken.
Price: $6.90 for chicken, $8.90 for oysters

The fried rice was okay, fairly fluffy and tasty. The chicken chop was really generous and overall quite a large portion. I had trouble finishing it! If the chicken cutlet had been served hot from the pan, this dish would have been better.

Price: $12.90

While they weren't served hot, the crust was deliciously flaky and buttery, the egg custard sweet yet not cloying, and the price point was also great! Had they just warmed it up before serving (and also maybe filled it with a little more egg), it would have been perfect.
Price: RM 4.5 for 2 tarts

The plating and presentation was so pretty. Tastewise also not bad. They use large grain rice (a bit like Japanese rice) and are not stingy with the ingredients.
Price: RM 22
