What’s even better is that a meal here doesn’t cost a bomb. In fact, no more than your usual cafe and what’s even better, everything is real and made from scratch. It could very well change your lifestyle and the way you eat!
♥Verdict: Visually, Be Real hit all the right notes, thanks to the spacious and sun drenched interior. Hits and misses on the food, but I’m not sure if I’m going to revisit. Oh ya, the sourdough was not bad which I think worth trying.

We highly recommend the Cantonese Ginger Spring Onion Noodle and Soy-Sauce Steamed Pork Belly here.
We decided to check out Yuan Kee (源记) after driven by it countless of times. This place serves classic Chinese food and it is probably also the busiest restaurant in the vicinity. It is located at the end of Kepong‘s ‘wai sek kai’ just before you make the turn towards Residence condominium
Braised pork ribs with ground nuts was awesome, the meat and the nuts were well cooked to a perfect softness and most of all the taste was delicious.
They have live band during the weekends which starts from 9.00pm onwards. The Jungle City Kitchen & Bar is the new hot place for friends and families to hang out or yum cha in Kepong. If you are here for the drinks, they are quite alright with that because they have a good selection of drinks including beers. But if you are coming here for the food, order something else other than what we’d ordered.
As usual, food is my main focus so lets dive into that shall we? Before coming here, I kept my expectations low as not to avoid disappointment, if any. Unfortunately, we still walked away feeling dissatisfied with the food and the service.
The wanton mee at Restoran Kok Hing, Kepong is the default go-to place for me whenever I feel like having some wanton mee. Their char-siew, roast pork and roasted chicken are quite popular here.
Kok Hing restaurant’s wantan mee is probably my 2nd favorite after Fat Yoong. From what I saw on the signboard, their main branch seems to be in Bentong and they are famous for various charcoal roasted meat and wantan noodles.
Verdict: Wallet friendly neighborhood eatery. Pretty good value considering the portion and while it’s not mind-blowingly delicious, it’s a good meal option if you’re staying in this area.
Verdict: Like the aforementioned, Seng Kee Hokkien Mee certainly one of the better ones in Kepong area that I’ve tried. The downside would be the long waiting time, but I’ll try to come earlier on my next visit to avoid the peak hour crowd.
Verdict: An unpretentious neighbourhood restaurant that worth a go. My recommendation would be the Xiao Long Bao, 5 colours dumplings and the fish balls.
Teo Chiew Fish Ball Noodle is running on a neighbourhood business and it is a family run business (mother and daughter) Total damage is around RM40 as did make take away 1 fish ball noodle and 2 tong shui. Price is very reasonable for such homey meal. They are also famous for their yong taufu as I reach at 9pm, it was already sold out.
Top Kitchen, the stall that churns out great Penang Char Koay Teow in Kepong had relocated to a coffee shop just further down the road. Since there are still quite a number of people who don’t know about the relocation and thought they closed down, here’s the update post.
♥Verdict: Overall, it was a fairly good dinner session, with two out of three of our food belong to the category of ‘I won’t regret ordering’ and the service was friendly too.
Though it has been some time ago before my revisit, there must be something memorable about this place that got me remembering it till now- and unmistakably is their porky dish, yum. So we settled down quickly for some cuppa and savoury. We skipped the sweets as the day was still tad early, haha.
Classic Beef Burger (MYR 17) Never say no to fluffily fried spiced fries- my all time fave!
♥Verdict: Although the food was not on a stellar level but Foo Hou Dim Sim still a good place to head to for some pipping hot Dim Sum. The spacious interior and the attentive service warrant repeat visits too.

The Steamed Har Gao Dumpling comes with the pulpy huge fresh prawns in it which is just superbly good. They are really fresh and delicious.
Would we come back? Yes – if we are in the area. Eden had enough well-executed dishes to warrant a return visit. In particular, we would definitely order the siu mai, har gao, fish ball, clam dumplings, spare ribs and woo kok.
One of the few remaining surviving Dim Sum restaurants in Kepong is this one; offering Dim Sum from early morning to before mid-night! Eden Dim Sum also have another location presence in Bukit Tinggi, Klang.
A couple of items that Eden does right are: Siu Mai (both premium and normal version), Lala Mai, Char Siew Puff, Snow Crab Stick (imitation type) dim sum and fried carrot cake. The rest are pretty run of the mill standard that neither impress nor disappoint.
Conclusion, I liked what I ordered for lunch, the Pancake was definitely flavorful with distinctive pandan taste and look, the 4 pcs were infused with chocolate chips, on the side was honey and a sliced banana, very nice concoction.
很喜欢这里的环境和食物,服务就麻麻地,喜欢吃西餐的朋友可以来试试
This cafe serves many kinds of delicious Italian food besides other western food.
I especially like the rich buns. The peeling of the steamed buns is obvious.
This time I experienced good food and service.
Total bill came to RM51.50 – Half bird, 2 plates of rice, 1 bowl of Hor Fun, 2 braised eggs and 5 pork balls. Food was very decent by many standards and certainly has a place among some of the better Hainanese Chicken Rice I’ve eaten. Check out THIS too which is within the vicinity as well.
The meat was juicy and the chicken was chewy and done just right.
Awww... One of the meal served. It is Yaki Buta Hamburg Don - RM20.90, the grilled Pork with rice. When bite it, the taste is quite nice and delicious.
With decent pricing and good portions, Just Nyonya proves to be a solid place for Nyonya food. Flavours are solid for most dishes with top favorites of mine that includes Perut Ikan, Chicken Kapitan, Sweet Potato Leaf Masak Lemak Keledek, Asam Prawns and more. There are also set lunch with very decent pricing and I spied Nyonya Laksa on the menu too. I will definitely be back to try other dishes on their menu!
Verdict: Food here is flavorful with loads of spice and aroma to entice me for a return. Good food with affordable pricing, Just Nyonya definitely a hidden gem at Kepong area that I will highly recommend! Oh ya, don’t forget to check out their set lunch priced at very decent price and I’m eyeing on the Nyonya Laksa, anyone joining me?
Chicken Curry Kapitan, which is a harmonious blend of tangy tamarind, creamy coconut milk and a variety of herbs and spices.
BaWangChaJi, despite their visual elegance, is not an affront to your wallet. They are priced similarly to other tea shops that I’ve seen so you’re not paying more for a fancy printed cup here. Their tea macchiatos and Snowy Series are very unique and would be what draws me into one of their locations again. These drinks are very rich and heavy, but if I could stomach it, I would return to BaWangChaJi.

Triple ‘Q’ Ness Tau Foo Fah, 9.50 ringgit The fixed combo I went for includes a nice portion tau foo fah, topped with matcha balls + taro + black pearls. The taro and matcha balls were nice, it had the perfect equilibrium between soft, gooey and chewy, chunky. The pearls however were not as soft as I’d like them to be. Perhaps it was not boiled/ soaked long enough?? It would have been nice if it was a lil softer. It kindda defeats the purpose of the whole dessert because rather than truly being able to enjoy the dessert, here you are spending half the time trying to chew the pearls. A lil softer would be nice. Other than that, It was a good dessert, I enjoyed it.
Salted egg prawn, fresh and delicious
