Nothing has changed…

…other than the fact that the previous owners have given up this place…

…and somebody else is running it now. Word has it that the new owner has retained the old chef so the menu stays the same and of course, what we used to enjoy here will still be as good as before. Other than that, I noticed on their Facebook page that they open from 11.30 a.m. till past midnight, 12.30 a.m. unlike before when it would close at round 2.00 p.m. and then resume business at around 5.00 p.m.

At this point in time, there is this special lunch promotion…

…so for your order of one rice set at only RM10.00 nett, you will get a free drink…

We went there for lunch that day as my girl wanted the pineapple chicken rice set…

…that the mum had once and she liked it a lot. Yes, it was very nice and she sure enjoyed it. The pineapple and whatever else underneath tasted something like the Thai-style mango salad…but the serving was really so very huge, so much so that she could not finish all of it and guess who had to help her out in the end. LOL!!!

I had the vinegar pork leg with rice…

…that I had before and for this set, you get a bowl of the lovely vinegar pork leg…

…and a bowl of rice with preserved vegetables and minced pork by the side.

However, what stole the show that day was my missus’ choice of their pork belly with salted fish rice set…

The meat was really good with the very generous addition of the long kiam hu (salted fish). At other places, despite the name of the dish, one would hardly be able to get a mild hint of the salted fish but that sure was not the case here.

We’ve always enjoyed the potato salad (RM16.00)…

…that we used to get together with their awesome pork ribs so I ordered that to go with our meals with a special request to leave out the pork crackling that was mentioned in the menu. The salad was great and I liked the fact that they added an egg to it but I thought the bacon was somewhat overdone till it was very hard and over-crispy. Otherwise, it was really good.

I do think this RM10.00 (nett) lunch sets are a steal. If you go and have a plate of chap fan (mixed rice) or something at a coffee shop and if you order a drink to go with it, you would probably need for fork out at least RM7.00-8.00 and sweat it out in the hot and crowded and noisy place so at such a reasonable price, I certainly would rather make my way here and enjoy my lunch in air-conditioned comfort while being entertained by the nice music that they play here – why, lunch hour would go by so quickly you’d wish you could stay longer and not go back to the office.
