    I'm writing this review to keep a record. There aren't any scenic views here, but there's delicious local cuisine. I personally liked the taste and reasonable prices.

    Small restaurant selling chu char with fresh seafood ingredients. The food here is flavourful, especially the curry fish & the sambal potato leaves. It's worth the long drive here. Price is also reasonable with a decent portion..

    Highly recommended! The owner is a great cook; the steamed fish in Chaozhou style is delicious, the stir-fried pork with homemade satay sauce is very flavorful, and the stir-fried sweet potato leaves are tasty too! 😋
