Read about the KL Hokkien Noodle rave review here and thought I give it a try. Perhaps my expectations were too high. It was a little sugary sweet for my liking. The lack of wok hei dampens my anticipation. Salt fish fried rice is pretty good, CKT is average fare and I did not try the BCM because it didn’t look too appetising.
Service was quick which is a plus. I reckon the Asian churches nearby brings in the lunch crowd.
Overall, it is crowded for a Sunday. Patrons must be enjoying their fares. For me, it’s just ok and I should not have been swayed by the ratings.

We came here on a Friday night, the restaurant was packed with people. Luckily we had a reservation so that we can enjoy the food there. We ordered three dishes that night, which came out in about 10 minutes and costed us $65 in total.
Their salt and pepper fried squid is one of my favourites. The squid was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They also added some stir fried vegetable toppings on top of the squid, which added more texture and flavours to the dish.
My partner had the Nasi Lemak fish, whichwas wrapped in gigantic banana leaves. The authentic presentation and taste of the fish made me feel like I was in South Asia.
Their Singapore Fried Noodle was also delicious. There were a good variety of vegetables and proteins in the dish, including vermicelli noodles, shrimps, roast pork, chicken, egg, and capsicums. I loved the generosity of the dish!
Their service was excellent too!
We would like to come back again.

Fantastic Chinese and Vietnamese vegetarian food. Recommend the vegetarian chilli beef noodle soup! For dinner the steamed mock cod fish.
If you want something special, try sizzling venison honey pepper sauce. It uses "mountain priest"/"lions mane" mushroom which you can hardly find in Australia!

Consistently good coffee. Everything here is made by the owner, and is very fresh. Even the bread is homemade, and is excellent. Has a very large and varied menu for breakfast, lunch and snacks. Don't be quick to pass this one by. Low key, and easily overlooked amongst the other food spots in this stretch of Centre Road, E Bentleigh, but definitely worth trying.
