Two plates of economy rice for MYR10 with refillable self service soup and plain water. Still affordable food.

  2. That is cheap! I wouldn't mind going for that...especially with our ever weakening ringgit and the dismal shape our economy is in at the moment. :(

    1. Uptown is an expensive location so 11 ringgit is considered ok.
