Address: 315, Jalan Pudu, Pudu, 55100 Kuala Lumpur
Operating hours: 11am - 2:30pm , 5:30 - 10pm (Closed on Monday)
Old school food is the best ever! This place is one of the oldest restaurants in KL. It has been existing ever since the year 1948 which means they have been serving the customer for over 70 years. Such a legend! Starting from a humble one lot and now has expanded up to a few shop lots to cater to countless loyal patrons especially during the weekends.
Specialised in traditional Cantonese food and maintained wood-fired stoves to cook all the food. Their legendary signature food which always goes sold out daily is 'pei pa duck' (roast duck). Another old-time favourite such as the steamed tofu and fish paste is also a must-try.
Many famous celebrities such as popular HK stars such as Eric Tsang, Richard Ng has visited this restaurant. So it not surprised this restaurant has been named as the world's best Chinese Restaurant by FoodieHub (a site alleging to be the world's largest global network of food experts) in the year 2015.

3. Chuan Kee Hakka Restaurant
Address : 14, Jalan Pudu Ulu, Batu 3 Cheras, 56100 Kuala Lumpur
Operating hour : 11:30am - 3:00pm , 6:00 - 9:30pm (Daily)
If you are a Hakka, then Chuan Kee is one of the most familiar places you have been frequented to enjoy awesome Hakka styled dishes. This place has been around since 1980s and still going strong due to its regular patrons as well as the new one.
One of the most popular dishes is Claypot Stew Lamb Brisket which cook to tender and the gravy described with one word....SUPERB! For those who love steamed egg custard, here they did it to silky smooth texture and melt in your mouth. You are not in visiting any Hakka restaurant and walk away without ordering the Yong Tau Foo. Here they don't just use fish paste but also minced salted fish and some blended toasted squid too.

Recently, I read news the Federal Territory Minister has declared four areas within Klang Valley as "coronavirus red zones". The area mentioned, Lembah Pantai, Kepong, Cheras and Titiwangsa. The deployment of police, law enforcement and military personnel in these areas will increase to ensure residents comply with the Movement Control Order (MCO).
