Restoran Golden Dragon

Reviewed By Angel b - Kota Bharu, Malaysia

Went there on Friday night and KT town was extraordinarily crowded. We got no direction where to have our dinner as most of the restaurants are full. We ended up in this restaurant because of the friendliness of the lady boss.
The food served very fast and it was delicious esp the steam fish. However the oyster in oyster egg was not that fresh. We enjoyed our dinner and the price was lower than we expected.

Restoran Ocean

Reviewed By 88takeiteasy - Malaysia

Found this Chinese Restaurant quite by chance when walking just outside Primula Resort where I am staying. Was told the only place to find alcohol in KT was Chinatown which is a 15 minutes drive away. So, Ocean Restaurant was a pleasant discovery. Eating alone so ordered a Chinese Fried Rice , a Sweet n Sour Pork dish and a large bottle of Carlsberg. The bill came to MR 36.55 which was fair. Food was good. I am happy. : ) I hear the seafood here is good too....just ask about the prices upfront when ordering seafood. Anyways, do come to Ocean!

T. Homemade Cafe

Reviewed By mnsp1964 - Houston, Texas

While visiting family in KT we ate here many times for breakfast. There are lots of different stalls making up this one restaurant, serving curry noodles, yong taufoo, wonton noodles, nasi lemak, kaya toasts, and other treats/local kuih. very friendly hardworking staff serving coffee, teh tarik etc. Good local food, good value for your money.
during Chinese new year it was busy so service a little slow but after the New Year it was not a problem at all.
non air conditioned but with fans quite comfortable.
Highly recommend

Reviewed By sheronlee - Malacca, Malaysia

The restaurant is very small and service is very slow. When we went there at about 2.30pm on a Saturday, many of the tables were still not cleared. The staff are not friendly and very impatient. The food is a let down. The chicken rice...MoreWe are sorry to disappoint you Sheron. We will improve further on our food and service!

Gossip Kitchen is in my neighbourhood and I've enjoyed coming here with visiting family and friends. I've always experienced friendly and efficient service, even though I know the waiters find english a challenge.
The food is great, with a good mix of malay and western options. Portions are generous.
The restaurant is very clean and cosy and has the bonus of aircon.
Well worth a visit!

Bukit Tok Beng 2209 Fish Cracker Stall

Reviewed By BlessedMum77

If you're talking about original keropok lekor , I've actually tested better (and cheaper) ones than this. But they do have interesting variation of keropok lekor that made them stand out - cheese lekor , blackpepper lekor and onion lekor. And their dipping sauce is to die for!
We came right after they open, at about 8.30am. So I was served on the spot, without the need to pre-order and taking que numbers. Was told that later on in the day, waiting time to be served can be quite unbearable.

Reviewed By RenukaMalaysia - Malaysia

Nice and clean place for a family dinner or lunches. It serves Chinese/Thai fusion and western food.
We were in a group of 6. We ordered nasi goreng kampung, chicken chop, nasi paprik and some stir fried noodles. Everything was tasty and served quickly.
Service is mediocre. Price was affordable too.
