What I like about the food is that all are served hot, very 'chinesey' and above all, they are prepared in accordance to Halal principle. Love the simple and contemporary decor with complementing light fittings and furniture. It was quite hidden from the busy main street but once I discovered the place, it was very cozy, airy and have lots of ample parking spaces. They even have free Wifi for my quick blogging surge. The restaurant decor and ambiance are very much suitable for friends and family gathering and even business hangout. Contemporary chinese caligraphy adorns the wall with all the matching pieces.

Favorite Dish: I must say that I love the prawn oat. I can even eat them on its own. Other notable dishes includes the hot and spicy torch ginger tom yam. . very creamy even though they are almost clear soup.

Here's a quaint little coffee shop with an authentic local feel. The ambience is like in the 1940's - 1960's. You'll find old stuff hanging around the shop eg. the gramaphone, the old radio, old ashtrays, sarongs, etc.

New Lucky restaurant is a great seafood place.

You can eat indoors or outdoors.

I'd prefer to eat outdoors because somehow my bill always seem cheaper when i eat outdoors.

Favorite Dish: The other day, my family had:-
Kampong Chicken
Crab with dried prawns and curry leaves (their specialty)
Steamed tofu
Stir fried mini french beans
frogs legs fried with ginger and oyster sauce

Bill came up to RM 147.00
There wasn't any service charge! Just goverment tax.

Thought it was pretty reasonable. Well, I enjoyed the food and I will definitely come back again.

This restaurant serves typical Chinese dishes with rice. Everything here is cooked with a little tea in it even the rice! but don't worry, it doesn't spoil the taste!
Decor is good, very presentable.
Staff are friendly, alert and courteous.
Prices are reasonable. Usually a party of 4 would cost about RM 100 which is about USD 29!

This place is a must-try in JB if you love Malaysian authentic Chinese cuisine.

My favourites are the salad prawns, the steamed tofu with mince meat, the string beans, the cod fish... yummy! Oh yes, the roast duck is very good too.

If you're a lover of noodles, I think you'll surely wanna try this out!! I discovered this fabulous noodles stall on my recent shopping trip across the causeway in JB.

This stall is in a relatively old shop, some may complain of the lack of ambience and non air-conditioned, but I would say, who cares??-- I will not mind sweating a little for food that I think is truly worth it. Quality matters =)

I think it's really rare nowadays to find homemade noodles (other than those in expensive restaurants). This stall sells not only homemade noodles which are smooth and chewy, but also homemade fishballs which I think is truly, simply, totally YUMMY!! Most importantly, it is selling at only RM 4 per bowl!!

Starts selling at 9.00 am till around 2 pm only.

Favorite Dish: MEE POK!! (dry thick noodles)
The homemade noodles go very well with the light seasoning and vinegar. Its not those noodles mixed with soya sauce that you can find everywhere and anywhere. Other ingredients that can be found are my favourite fishballs, meatballs, small prawns, minced pork and beansprouts. Alternatively, you can try the thin noodles. But I still think the mee pok is the best! =) **note: you may request for your noodles to be lard-free

Kuew Tiao Soup
The kuew tiao is also very smooth, and the best part is the soup.
