Stumbling upon this hidden gem was a delightful surprise! The malatang is bursting with flavor, and the popcorn chicken exceeded my expectations. The service is friendly and efficient, making it perfect for a quick lunch. Skip the overpriced street food outside and indulge here instead...

I stumbled upon this place after a long search, and it was so worth it. I tried the beef malatong, and wow - the rich, flavorful broth was loaded with thinly sliced beef and a rainbow of veggies. The mix of clear noodles and kombu as a base felt both hearty and healthy!
Also, don't skip the popcorn chicken - crispy, flavorful, and paired with a delectable spicy mayo that kicks it up a notch. Perfect for a quick lunch or a cozy dinner. Highly recommend it!
