You must stop and try the food here, as a local Malaysian the food is so delicious and we kept coming back here for more. And the prices are local priced too , cheap, tasty & clean! They only open from 3pm onwards. If you come late the nice sweets are gone so you need to come early. The staff are lovely aswell. You must try the laksa pangkor, the fluffy donut and the yellow and brown sweet. But pretty much everything is good. Try them all.

I was actually planning to try the famous Pangkor nasi lemak, but somehow stumbled upon a small local shop instead. It had a variety of breakfast options, and I went with their karipap and nasi lemak. Since seating was limited, we packed the food and enjoyed it back at the hotel. And honestly — wow — the nasi lemak was a hit with my whole family! The ikan bilis (anchovies) were especially good — super crispy and flavorful, just the way they should be. The only downside? It was RM5 per packet, which is a bit on the higher side for a small-town stall — but totally worth it for the quality and taste. Sadly, it made me realize how the nasi lemak in Kuala Lumpur has been getting worse day by day . Pangkor still knows how to do it right!
