"It has been operating for quite a long time and many people who eat at here are local residents. I liked the 大包 sold at here because unlike 大包 from other places which usually have bones in it, the 大包 here is boneless and you did not need to worry if you might accidentally bite a bone. Besides, other food sold here is also delicious such as Loh Mee(卤面)."

"Cheap n good food with the main draw being hokkien mee with lor mee sauce. The broth is very fragrant and thick. However there is a long queue esp on weekends.. Waited 30m for food to arrive. The chicken rice is also quite good.. Also a main draw. Parking is limited so park at the roadside or turn into the road before the kopitiam to park there."

"This Chinese Kopitiam has a classic, old-school style but seats here are limited. We had hokkien mee and chicken rice for our breakfast here. Its Hokkien Mee has a thick and rich shrimp flavour. I like their chicken rice as well, the rice has a rich chicken broth flavour and the amount of chicken meat is generous."
