The food here is good, but the service could be better. The lady who took my order seemed impatient. She asked me to hurry up, even though there was no one queuing behind me and I had only been looking at the menu for a few seconds. So, the service from that particular lady was sub-par, as she was curt and impatient.

The food is good, but the Mak Cik running the counter and taking orders needs to change her attitude. Running a food business is tiring, but that doesn't mean you can show your attitude to your customers. Without your customers, you won't be able to pay your rent.
Moral of the story: if you can't control your emotions when doing a food business, then don't do it, PERIOD!

When other mala places are ripping us off, this mala store serves flavourful mala hotpot at great prices. Picture taken midway through the meal because it was that good. Drove home with the Laqiji and it was still crispy!
