Great Breakie with good food and cozy environment ..Sitting upstairs is more comfy than downstairs. Curry Chee Cheong Fun , Eggs abd Toast recommended! ????????????????????????

Kopi (coffee ) is really good and so is the stir fry noodles . Intense flavour...the Straight up black was too strong for me, adding evaporated milk and sugar was perfect!

Tai Wai Goh

the Hainan tea (cham) is good and must drink, croissant is pretty decent too.

Tracy Loh

the signature dishes are really good, worth trying, toast and coffee is a must as well . do expect to queue as the crowd is always there. https://t.co/FlAoYvK6fA

Half boiled egg and dry curry on toast are a wonderful combination. Get a queue number from the machine before sightseeing to nearby attractions . It can be a long wait before you get your table.

Excellent find of a cafe. Very fun to find. Reminiscent of a small, intimate only one-barrista cafe you’d find in Japan. The military latte is worth a try. - Lele

Probably the best street art in KL today. Murals are painted with such fine detail. A crowd puller with long queue of people eagerly waiting to get in and posing for pictures. - Andrew Choong

egg tarts is a must-try, matcha crust has a hint of green tea flavor which is unique, the egg is runny and smooth and not too sweet, it's so yummy. https://t.co/b7ycCaUIJq - Tracy Loh
