Auntie Gaik Lean's Old School Eatery
malaysian · ★ Michelin

Memorabilia in show windows and a 60s soundtrack exude the charm of a bygone era. Chef Gaik Lean has been guarding her secret recipes for decades and she makes no compromises in terms of food quality. Many items are made from scratch, including her heavenly pie tee and gulai tumis that uses over eight ingredients in the curry paste, such as fresh saffron. Also try nasi ulam, an old-time recipe.

Moh Teng Pheow Nyonya Koay
malaysian · Bib
$
This shop specialises in Nyonya kueh – an array of cakes, dumplings, puddings and pastries that can be sweet or savoury, and steamed, deep-fried or baked. All their treats are made just as they were back in 1933, when the owner's father opened a kueh factory. In addition to kueh lapis, kueh talam, ang koo and Nyonya chang, they also serve a few Nyonya dishes. Enjoy your meal beneath a glass roof and Penang-style umbrellas in the converted patio.

Street Food · Bib

Cantonese · Bib
$$
Chinese couplets on the wall and red tablecloths lend the clean, simple space a festive vibe. Open since 1965, this no-frills joint has won the hearts of foodies, with well-made traditional Cantonese fare and fusion creations with a local twist. The deep-fried house-made tofu with dried local anchovies is a must – it's simply seasoned with soy sauce, but the umami is irresistible. Ask about the double-boiled soup of the day, which never disappoints.

Bee Hwa Cafe
chinese, local · Bib
$
Using chicken and seafood instead of pork, this charming café serves halal Malaysian-Chinese fare. The owner started the business as a street stall back in 1992 and now runs it with her son and daughter. Her char kway teow is sautéed with minced garlic rather than lard, in a secret soy sauce blend that tastes spicy-sweet. Made fresh daily, the broth for her hae mee is bursting with seafood umami; the home-made curry paste adds a kick to the noodles.

Bibik's Kitchen
Peranakan · Bib
$$
“Bibik” is an honorific used to address older Peranakan women, and the room is aptly decorated with classic Nyonya motifs. Naturally, the menu showcases the owner’s heirloom Peranakan recipes that are slightly less spicy than their counterparts elsewhere. Dishes come in three sizes – try their jiu hu char (stir-fried yam bean with shredded cuttlefish), and loh bak (deep-fried five-spice pork rolls).
