Restaurant Jin Xuan Hong Kong :

This restaurant serves delicious food with a blend of Cantonese, Chinese, and Malaysian styles. They offer delicious dishes such as congee, chow mein noodles, fried rice, Malaysian curry, and chicken satay and most importantly Dim Sum to those who visit it. It is also immensely popular among locals who have been visiting this restaurant for several years now. Besides the dim sum, do try their Portuguese egg tart. I like the texture of the tart’s pastry. Unlike the normal tart where the pastry are very firm and filling, the Portugueses tart one is more flaky and soft. Their Portuguese tart is a must to me every time I order food from JIn Xuang Hong Kong. Price-wise, at least RM 50 – 60 for 2 persons, depending on the types of food you ordered as well. Jin Xuan Hong Kong has few outlets spreads across KL and Selangor. My favourite one is the one in Damansara since it’s the closest to me

Way Modern Chinois

Way Modern Chinois specialises in Chinese food. They have an extensive menu that offers traditional dishes as well as some fusion dishes. They also have other specialities such as fish, dim sum and vegetarian options. Their menu is meant for sharing.

This restaurant’s bestseller is their signature Phoenix Claws. They have three varieties to choose from braised seafood, spicy pork or chicken. It is recommended to share this between two or more people. This dish is a must-try, even if you’re not a big seafood fan. The meat falls off the bone and it’s incredibly flavourful. You cannot really go wrong with this one!

Another popular dish here is the shrimp wontons. They are fresh, and they are steamed to perfection.

The location of this restaurant is also amazing and strategic, I would say. The area is also full of restaurants, bars, etc. Mind you that this restaurant’s modern interior design and ambience are amazing—a cosy and dark place with a luxurious feel.

Opening Hours: 12:00PM to 03:00PM | 06:00PM to 10:30PM. Opens daily.
