"The food is ok because there isn't any really good food to compare at this new emerging town of Batu Kawan. The roast pork isn't crispy though it looks great. Price is slightly at the high side but this is what you get in this area. The environment is comfortable, worth mentioning the cleanliness which is spotless clean."

"The roast meat rice dish is absolutely delicious! The flavors are rich and savory, with perfectly roasted meats that have crispy skin and tender, juicy insides. The rice complements the dish well, soaking up all the flavors, making every bite satisfying. It's a hearty and flavorful meal that's hard to resist!"

"Before leaving comment, I had read the previous comments by other customers. Some said this one is heavy taste. I always prefer heavy taste but I think it is light. Quite recommended for the reason not many MSG. After finishing the food, won't feel thirsty. Old people also like their char siew."

Their service is nice, the food delivery is also arrange in proper manner, won't increase customer burden for having their meal. Definitely will visit them again."

"The 4 mixed platter (Roasted Chicken, Roasted Duck, Roasted Pork, and Lap Cheong) and the Cai Boey were served in generous portions, which was large enough for light eaters to enjoy. The meat was artfully sliced into thick large chunks that gave a juicy and succulent texture. A blend of savoury soya sauce is drizzled table-side, and they did well in complementing the expertly cooked chicken. Its doneness was close to perfection, and there weren’t any overly fibrous bits. My dining companion and I were huge fans of how the chicken was prepared. Definitely will come back again."
