They have a lot of outlets around the KL city, in BB Plaza and Sungai Wang, if I'm not mistaken. There are always A LOT of people there. I recently went when my dad came over to KL, we ate with his friends at Esquire Kitchen for lunch too. It was also packed, the Subang outlet has a lot of office workers eating there. Food is so so only to me, don't know why it's so popular. The pork chop noodles looks interesting but I don't like dry pork chop.Huai Binhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650045372566415386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907130910502562719.post-61923414480744343132016-07-01T12:19:57.878+08:002016-07-01T12:19:57.878+08:00Not a big fan of xiao lung bao.
