    People resident in Jelutong should be familiar with Soon Lai Seafood , a neighbourhood zhu char restaurant that has been entrenched in Batu Lanchang for decades. The restaurant is so popular among the locals that usually it is full house during the weekends dinner hour, as…

    Instead of any fancy place (she warned me not to bring her for Japanese food), one of mom’s favorite places is this inconspicuous house-turned-restaurant place that goes by the name of Soon Lai Seafood Restaurant .
