Visited for the much-raved-about pandan waffles, but was disappointed to find them sold out by 3pm on a Saturday. We settled for typical Old Chang Kee snacks (fish balls, gyozas, cheese hotdogs) and decided to try some of the main dishes: the satay, blue pea nasi lemak with satay, and Chickee curry chicken.
The satay was small and over-grilled, but the nasi lemak was decent, with fragrant rice and spicy chilli. The curry chicken, made without coconut milk, had a unique taste, and my family was split on whether it was a yay or nay.
Service left much to be desired. Indoor ventilation is poor, while outdoor seating was cramped, with mouldy cushions and inefficient overhead fans.
Overall, not a pleasant visit and won't be returning.

Ordering was fast but service was slow. Reason was there was a new guy and things were abit slower.
Ordering was fast but service was slow. The reason given was that there was a new staff member, which made things a bit slower. The lemon fish was bad; the fish seemed defrosted, battered, and lacked flavor. The Korean fried chicken rice was even worse. The flavor was lacking, and the chicken wasn't crispy at all. It would be much cheaper and better to just order the original fried chicken. The nasi lemak was average, though the fried chicken skin was alright.

This is one of the rare Old Chang Kee outlets where you can actually sit down for a proper meal — most of their locations are just small stalls for takeaway only.
However, the fried skewers offered here are usually sold out by afternoon or evening time, as shown in the picture. So customers coming specifically for the signature stall-style fried snacks are bound to be quite disappointed!
This outlet also offers local specialties like laksa and curry noodles, but these dishes are all spicy — which may not be ideal for those who are not fond of spicy food.
Considering this is inside the zoo, where prices are typically 2 to 3 times higher than outside, this shop is relatively reasonable. Customers don’t have to worry about being overcharged — after all, even their street-side pricing isn't exactly cheap. For example, chicken wings that usually cost $1.50–$2 at regular coffee shops go for $2.70 here.
Each table at this outlet clearly states that outside food and drinks are not allowed. So if you’re a tired visitor just looking for a place to rest, you’ll need to make a purchase. Luckily, there’s no minimum spending requirement.
I’d like to give it a 3.5 rating if available.

Absolutely appalled by the experience my wife and I had today. We arrived at 7:00 PM sharp, well within the stated business hours of 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM, only to be flatly turned away because the kitchen was already closed. No apologies, no explanation — just a cold “We’re closed” as if we were the ones who had done something wrong. I’ve worked in F&B before. I understand prep time and winding down, but closing the kitchen a full hour before closing time without any notice or signage? That's not just unprofessional — it's deceptive. It shows a complete lack of regard for customers who take the time to come down expecting service. If the kitchen closes at 7, say so clearly. Don’t pretend to operate till 8 PM and then dismiss people as if their time doesn’t matter. We drove out of our way to support this place, only to be met with indifference and a refusal of service during posted hours. We left hungry, frustrated, and deeply disappointed. Frankly, 1 star is far too generous. If I could leave zero, I would. This experience was not just inconvenient — it was downright disrespectful. I sincerely hope the management sees this, acknowledges the failure, and takes action — because right now, you’ve lost two customers for good unless something is done to make this right.
