An eatery called Goon Wah Restaurant

Their Guinness Stout Chicken Wings and Braised Pork Belly with Yam are two examples of their culinary excellence. Despite the lack of emphasis on aesthetics, the servings are rather substantial.

Restoran Green View
Green View is impossible to miss. Consistently high-quality design elements, such the neon lights and large internal space. It’s no surprise that this PJ staple has such a devoted following, despite the presence of a slew of other restaurants. Try the sung har mee if you’re feeling charitable. Big prawns are coated in sauce and placed on top of thin noodles, then garnished with fresh veggies. It’s worth the calories to have the braised beancurd with pumpkin sauce as a side dish.
Address: No. 8, Jalan 19/3, 46300 Petaling Jaya
Operation hour: Everyday 11:00am – 9:00pm
Wang Chiew Seafood Restaurant
Customers still come to Wang Chiew despite its less-than-ideal layout. This proves that the quality of the meal is the most important factor in many cases. There are several products on the menu, including steamed fish, which is the restaurant’s most popular item. You’re talking about the kind of fish that’ll have you piling up rice plates simply to get a taste of its succulent flesh and flaky skin. When amazing flavours hypnotise you, you don’t damn about the setting.
