It’s been a number of years since I last dropped by this
small establishment since I rarely have business around their location (which
was at Jalan Chester, right in the heart of the old Sabindo town and behind the former Pasar Gantung) and for the
fact that the area is notorious for being ‘jammed central’ especially during
the day. Nevertheless, I found myself within the area one day together with my
mom so we decided to finally give them a go. The tiny but air-conditioned Chinese
run eatery has definitely stand the test of time and is almost always packed
with people so you would think that it was an exceptional place, regardless of
their unassuming appearance right?
Well, I personally think that people were packing the kedai kopi due to the aforementioned
reasons only since I was less impressed with their food. The place was known
for their chap fan (aka the Chinese
version of the Nasi Campur) and everything was either very salty or very bland
in terms of tastes. I was hoping that after all these years that the taste might
improve but unfortunately that didn’t happen. Their pricing has also ‘grown’
exponentially and some items were even not fairly priced. I was given a tiny
portion of an omelette (approximately 1/3 of an ordinary sized omelette) that
I’ve requested from their display cabinet (meaning that it was pre-cooked no
less) and was charge an extra RM3 for it. Let’s just say that it will probably
take me another few more years to stop by the eatery again.
