"Definitely a must try shop at Georgetown. You can always see people queuing up to get a seat in that restaurant. I loved the toast with half-time boiled egg on top. A very fulfilling breakfast which gives you so much of energy. Their way of preparing the toast is in a very traditional way where they use charcoal .would love to pay another visit"

"The kopitiam opens early morning until about 2100 hours. There are 3 shifts selling food. We came around 1530 hrs and was given the last bowl of curry Mee (4.5/5). Must try the lemon+asam boi drink. Lots of lemon and no sugar added."

"Even though we can’t get the old establishment’s yee mee (Robert) anymore, this successor’s is quite delicious too! Big portion, with big prawns that tasted so fresh. The lady said they only open if they can get supply of big prawns. So do call before coming to check if they’re open. We had Yee mee, Ying Yong, and salted egg+century egg porridge. All good. Price is reasonable."

"The food here is fantastic. Delicious seafood. I took Saufu Yee Mee, and it was really great. The cafe has a very limited space and has to park a bit far. So, it is recommended to come earlier"

"You gotta try the seafood fried noodles operated by a guy named Robert. It's the stall in front of the shop. Taste very good and very reasonably priced."
