    Restoran Fatt Hei Len

    Head up to Cheras to find one of the most revered Chinese restaurants in Kuala Lumpur. And justifying their reputation, one can expect teeming crowd during peak hours. Flashing an array of claypot dishes such as prawn stew rice, fish with wine and pork ribs into the already extensive menu is the main attraction here. Most of the dishes don’t offer a burden to your budget but if you’re in the mood to splurge a little more, you got to try their cheese crabs. All in all, this place would be a clever pick for both varieties and flavours. 

    Tips

    Huge crowd
