"Traditional taste, if you try once then you will remember it. If you order the signature coffee, make sure is hot, as the taste is thicker and stronger. Nasi lemak is the one must try no matter with or without the fried chicken. The bihun is always sold out, dunno why. Kaya toast is a must try. Butter cake will never disappointed, taste good and soft, always order when i am visiting. The overall taste is nice, just most of the time many item is sold out earlier. Recommend you visit it if you come to tambun area."
