The next day, we woke up SUPER early to be some of the first ones in the shop. From what my relatives tell me, this place will start selling around 6/6:30am and will sell out, typically by 9/10am. The food was definitely worth it though. Top notch! The apom manis is probably one of the stars at this eatery as they use a cooking method that is quite rare. Through using specialty ordered earthen clay pot and some super hot charcoal, they pour a batter into the pot and place another pot on top. After 30 seconds or so, he opens the pot and flips the partially cooked apom manis and allows it to finish, then serves. It’s a very delicate food; probably cousin to the crepes in France. A pretty awesome hot tip from VKeong is you can call ahead for the Apom Manis from a Mr.Ravi at 012-4707039. The Har Mee was also very tasty; you can definitely tell they did not skimp while making the prawn broth.

If I had to choose just one place to consider my favorite food spot in the world, this would be it. The eats at the food court is astounding. Sure, you may not have the same variety as you would in a more modernized eatery, but as the old adage goes, quality over quantity. The best thing, I think, that can be ordered at the food court is the ‘see hum chow fun’, It simply cannot be beat anywhere else. Various textures and flavors from the Ingredients that an uncle has painstakingly cooked on a flat wok until he deems the dish is ready. Should you still want more, there are street food vendors that are a skip, hop, and step away. Not only would I choose this food court for the great eats, but there is also an emotional attachment as my most fondest memories of family are here. It’s a place where I consider time to stand still and hope to make many trips back in the coming years.

Parking
The amount of parking around the area is decent but not many. As the town is fairly small, we typically walked from where we stayed.

After a long night out, the cousins and I decided it would be best to grab a nice breakfast before meeting up with the rest of the family/relatives. The Kopi (coffee), Kaya Toast, and Curry puff definitely hit the spot!
