Type: Chinese Food
Signature: Seafood and Patin Fish
Famous for its Patin Fish, but we decided to order other dishes. We tried the XL Sized Signature Steamed Crab 🦀 (3.5 🌟) which we specified a 50% cooked recipe. Taste is average and it came with steamed Eggs but crab is still too cooked. The Superior Soup Lala (4 🌟) is tasty here.. A bit spicy for kids but it's full flavored. Recommended. The fried chicken (4 🌟) is also very good here. Prices are also very reasonable. Will come back to try their signature patin fish next time.

Type: Chinese Restaurant
Signature: Ipoh Taugeh Chicken
One of the favourites around this area.. This Restoran has been around a long time and it is specialised in traditional Ipoh Style taugeh chicken (4 🌟). We ordered the Signature Taugeh (bean sprouts) which was really good but would have been better with more pepper. The taste of their steamed chicken (4 🌟) is also comparable to famous branded Ipoh Taugeh Chicken stalls like Lou Wong and Cowan Street. They also have dry Curry Hor Fun (3.5 🌟) which was quite good too.. But we still prefer the traditional taste. A must visit place 👍 if you like Taugeh Chicken.

Type: Chinese Restaurant
Signature: Seafood and Chinese Dishes
Restoran has been around a long time and I have personally visited many times (and food was so so only)...so we decided to give it another try. However, on the overall.. the food remains bad. Seriously dunno why the Great reviews. For starters.. The Sweet and sour pork (2.5 🌟) which is like a food taste barometer for Chinese food... is bad. So you can almost forget about the rest of the dishes.
As a run down.. We ordered Ling Ngou Soup (2 🌟) and it was tasteless. The Salted Signature Crab 🦀 (1 🌟) was so cooked that it tasted like rubber (despite reminding them not to overcook the Crabs). Scallops with Bacon roll (3 🌟) was ok but not really up to my standard. Well most other dishes we tried were all below average. Service is bad and food here is expensive. Dont think will ever return here again.

Type: Chinese Kopitiam
Signature: Prawn Mee
One of the oldest Kopitiam near Telawi, their Prawn Mee was one of the Top in KL. The kopitiam is clean and surprisingly Breezy and not hot which earned them some points. They serve Mixed Rice 3.5 🌟 and Pork Noodles 3 🌟 too besides their Signature Prawn Mee 3.5 🌟, which was average only.. As it lacks the original prawn mee strong flavour. They have pork slices and small shrimps which was quite nice with the noodles. Prices here are very reasonable considering a Bangsar neighborhood (you can get a meal with drinks here for less than RM10). However parking is super bad.

Type: Kopitiam
Signature: Chinese Mixed-Rice
One of my regular kopitiam for takeouts (tapau). The mixed rice here boasts a variety of more than 50 different dishes which includes fried chicken, Chai ngor (vegetarian roasted goose), curry wild boar, cha siu, fried fish, and a whole variety of dishes.
My personal favourite is the kali San Chu yok (curry wild boar) and the steamed egg with chopped meat and also the ham Choi (salted vegetables).
Loke Tin also serves Tai Chao (Ala carte Chinese cooking) in the evenings. It's nice too 4 🌟. I like the fried fish, steamed Eggs and their sweet sour pork.
