"Last time I went to this branch was probably 4-5 years ago. I've tried the branch in market 88 a few times back then, but the taste was always below par to this pavilion branch. I tried again recently here & am quite satisfied with the taste, still as good as i remembered."

"One of my favourite places to eat kuetiau sup I love the soup especially bcos got hamchoi and milk. I always order the one that got fried fish and prawn ball, tastes very fresh too!! The only downside is that I noticed that the fish and prawn ball is getting smaller their fried bean curd and popiah are superbb very crispy!!"
