We arrived here at 6pm on a Saturday. Business is good, but there were still tables available. We ordered a Beggar Chicken, Salted Fish Hotplate Tofu, and Sweet Potato Leaves. Total around RM77 including rice and drinks.The chicken was RM40, tofu RM15, vege RM8. Very reasonable price for us coming from Sabah. Although the chicken is its signature dish, I don't find it exceptional. The taste is good, though for me the chicken meat is not juicy or moist enough. Other dishes pretty good.Lots of locals eat here, so there must be something extraordinary about it. Up to you to explore!
First time trying here despite coming to Kuantan for so many times hahaCame here at 6.15pm during weekends and the seats inside are fully occupied/booked and luckily there are few tables left outside which located across the walkway of other closed stores beside it lolThings that I've to applaud them would be their flash speed in delivering out our order despite the crowd they are having....that is insanely fast lol....never really expect this!Food wise I feel it is just normal and nothing exceptional that surprise my tastebud. Out of all the dishes we ordered, 2 that stands out would be the beggar chicken (RM40) in herbal broth and the meat is soft which suitable for all ages to eat. Another one would be the salted egg squid fritter (RM38), evenly battered with well balanced sauce coating together with some bitter gourd in it.It is a good experience for me to try once which is enough for now haha, price is quite reasonable as well ;)Do take note that they only accept cash or duitnow QR, hope they can adopt credit/debit card in the future as well
arrived at around 8.30 pm. was fairly busy but could find a table for 5. was wishing to get the beggar chicken but they ran out and of course we did not reserve in advance. place is fairly clean, food taste was good but nothing spectacular. we tried chili crab, baby beans in salted shrimp, ekobar in dried chili, and sizzling plate homemade beancurd with chicken slices which we all found to be salty. one thing i wished they had the hot bun to dip into chili crab. they gave some common bread instead
The food here is tasty and reasonably priced. However, the hygiene could use some improvement. It can get quite crowded on weekends and public holidays, making parking a bit of a challenge.
A very popular restaurant in Kuantan. However the kitchen churns out the food at an unbelievable speed. We hadn’t even washed our hands and served the tea when the first dish reached the table. I’ve never said this before but perhaps the food came too fast! Lol!The food was generally good but a bit heavy on the salt and MSG. The food:
- Herbal/ Beggar’s Chicken - foil wrapped (highly recommended);
- Taufoo with minced pork;
- Pork Ribs in Yam Basket;
- Spring Roll (highly recommended);
- Kangkong with Belacan.Be prepared for a busy and noisy atmosphere and likely somewhat stuffy feel. Go for the crowd favourites and don’t expect fine cuisine here. Prices are quite reasonable.
