    The place is very clean, neat and presentable. Even the chef looks clean and well groomed, and he is very polite and humble. Everything is well organised, and the food tastes really good.

    You’ve found it! This is the hainanese chicken rice place that you’ve been looking for in Penang. From the warm initial welcome, to the visibly clean tables, floors, and walls, you can tell the owners respect their food and guests.

    Their chillies are packed with flavors and the chicken texture is smooth and tender. Even their unlimited refill soup are also packed with flavor! Reasonable price and definitely a place to try for chicken rice lover
