Would return any time! They serve a cafetería buffet style menu with an option to order off a paper menu. There are many types of curries, spicy and BBQ chickens, lamb shanks, veggie dishes available earlier in the day, and freshly made nan. The buffet plate cost me under 20 myr and was fully loaded. Staff speaks English and provides forks and spoons for those that don't eat with their hands. Parking is very limited but seating is not.

We were visiting Kuala Lumpur and got to eat here! The food was just absolutely awesome! I don't know exact names but we had a tender coconut drink, Nasi goreng with beef, and roti canai! My friend also got a meat and broth soup with slices of bread that was delicious too!!

A good variety of food, featuring Malaysian and Indian dishes, open for long hours. Service is fast and prices are reasonable. The koayteow was particularly delicious, much more so that their very average mee goreng.

The roti pisang and teh tarik were excellent. I like the open-air setting, though it was extremely empty, presumably because I was there on a weekend morning during Ramadan.

One of our favorites for cheap eats in KL! Great roti cani, roti tissue and all kinds of other mamma food(malaysia Indian). I feed my entire family here for under $25 and everyone leaves full and satisfied. Not fancy but clean and where all the locals eat.
