Can anyone recommend a good makan restaurant around Bkt. Beruang area apart from Xin Garden in BB Plaza. Ayer Keroh area also will do. Thks.

Hi, just looking for a decent Chinese restaurant serving good food at reasonable prices. My son is studying in the uni there and travel quite frequently to Mel esp. BB area. Hate going downtown on weekends, the jam and difficulty in finding parking space can really 'kill' you. Any recommendation. Thks.


Added on September 23, 2012, 4:19 pmThere's a big Malay 'tomyam' restaurant near the Esso petrol station on the way to the cemetry road, anyone been there? How's the food and price? Thks.

I cant give much info on bukit beruang area since I already 'jelak' eating there. Most shops are selling economy rice targeting students and factory workers. There is one baba nyonya restaurant near 7-11 opposite petronas, Family Heritage.

Others that comes into my mind Dragon Deluxe chinese restaurant at bukit baru, batu berendam. There is also one chicken rice ball shop and one char siew rice shop across the road.

I have tried the tomyam restaurant about 4 years ago, just so so. I dont see many cars at its parking lot nowadays.

You can also give the nasi kandar at MITC a try, Subaidah.

Thank you very much. You're right in your observation of food around BB. Did try 'Family Heritage' with my family but sadly, the food not as good and up to expectation esp. nyonya dishes. Will try your other makan places on my next trip. Btw, someone highly recommended Nancy Kitchen in Jonker's Walk for its nyonya's dishes, care to comment on this? Thanks again.

Oh, my last trip to Family heritage was a few years back. Too bad to hear about this. I never try Nancy Kitchen before but i guess its worth a try to check if the recommendation is true.

by the way, what course is your son doing? :-)

Sorry folks, off topic a bit, just to reply to good Mr. Human Nature (hopefully salutation correct, otherwise, my apologies)- Mech. Engineering, 3rd yr. Those days only Mel Campus offering it, if not definitely want him to be in Cyber Campus.

Was there last weekend during lunch with my family. The environment was good and a much respite from the very hot weather. Ordered 1 seafood platter, 1 chicken chop and 3 beef steaks (4 paxs). Everything was fine except for one beef steak (medium done). The beef was chewy and rubbery. Complaint to the waiter and was given a new replacement. This was palatable. Price wise reasonable.

Went to this shop, coming from Jonker Walk just before the bridge, turn left and its about 50m on the right side of the road. They specialises in Nyonya Kuih, though not many varieties and Nyonya-chang is their speciality. All of it tasted good and it's money worth.
