"If you are in a hurry, but you want some rice. You don’t want to spend so much and you office is around Petra Jaya. It’s time for lunch, and you don’t want to combat the heat and parking. You have search the right place. For lunch, the assorted dishes of Nasi Campur is another option. For me, its always Nasik Aruk Biasa and Bee hoon soto without the Nasi Impit. Everyone is very friendly, the price is very cheap. If you see the person from the kitchen, you may need to talk to others than her because apparently she is very rude. Aside from that one person from the kitchen who I don’t know her name, the stuffs are all friendly, the price are affordable, its air conditioned with a nice view of the lake and my favourite food had never disappoint me. Mz approves!"

"Air conditioning was beautiful. That’s the only way to describe it. Food was great - it was a bit of a wait due to it being the lunchtime rush, but nothing unbearable. Food was very reasonably priced. Laksa for RM6 and it was spectacular. View is stunning - can see from window but even better at the outside seating. Attached is the panoramic view from just outside. Highly recommend!"

"Great place for breakfast and lunch. My usual choice when in the area. An oasis eatery for the surrounding area, I am sure it is a favourite for those working in government offices nearby. Cheap and good food with a view what else can you ask for. Restaurant is well run and service is also quick. Food is quick despite the crowd and staff is also swift to clear tables when patrons were done. Very cold aircond though as of the whole library."
