Seeing positive posts on this place fonally decided to have a try.
It is small so be prepared to wait if you come at the peak hour.
Bottom line is ordering is simple and at the cash register. Staff are very courteous, obliging and friendly.
You help yourself to all the various pickled chillis, sauces, hot tea, tap water, clear soup.
The food, ok it is really nice Malaysian/Singapore hawker food.
The dishes I have tried and that are really yummy include:
Hainanese Chicken rice - superb and the very authentic not watered down chilli sauce for this makes it an excellent dish.
Note there is version of this with ginger scallion sauce poured on the top for about $1 more. Also delicious.
The liver soup is so good.
The pork organ soup with steamed rice or rice noodles ia also very good.
The kolo mee is very yummy.
The duck egg fried kuey teow is good but is definitely different from the normal.
The crispy deep fried pork is very good.
They offer lunch specials as well off their menu such as Kam Heong Chicken Rice. The portions are very decent and great value for money.

Dine in a few times but never remembered to take photos... partly cos too hungry and the food are always quite nice...
Also dine in experience is really not always the best cos it's usually quite packed with customers... good sign for an eatery... however it's not an environment I like to slowly enjoy my food. Too packed... too noisy...
This time i managed to take a few pics before eating the food. Ordered takeaway through Uber Eats and food quality wise still great. Food portion "maybe" a bit smaller but it may be a perception thing as dining in food is spread out on a big plate / bowl.
This is one of the place i always recommend people to try with confidence.

had to sit outside once because tables inside were not very available at all. small establishment but oh well. still kinda burned outside from sun
got the ginger scallion chicken with noodles. very VERY flavorful and tender, i enjoyed its taste. noodles are nice but i tried with rice and it’s a lot better due to how it absorbs the flavor. the chili sauce they give is not too spicy so maybe i will add a little more next time.
i also had chili pan mee in the past, it’s definitely on the higher end of (and possibly still beyond) my spice tolerance. if you need to clear out your intestines in a rush i do recommend
most recently i dined in for the second time, and it was more proper of an experience. they have free hot soup and tea to refill! the soup is really flavorful and not too hot, whereas the tea is very hot.
i waited a fair bit for my bak chor mee (minus beansprout because i don’t like the texture okay) despite coming on open but the wait was very worth it. only $15, good spice level, full flavor, and great portion. dining in is very worth it so come early.
also this is the same location block that has gone through like 5 different iterations so i do suggest trying it before the next comes in

This place used to be flat out with long queues and wait time until Chicken Rice Corner opened up inside the shopping centre. Their chicken rice used to be bigger portion, but since the price increase, the portion has also been reduced which is probably why they’ve lost so much business to Chicken Rice Corner.
They do provide self-serve soup, condiments and tea at the corner, which can get difficult to get to when there are so many people standing in this corner waiting for table or takeaways.
When you order take away with dine-in order, they don’t bring out the takeaway until you’ve almost finished your meal, even when you ask for the takeaway to come out together. This can be frustrating when you order “additional” serve for toddlers as takeaway since they can only eat a small portion of it and saving the rest to take home.
Staff are ok, but don’t expect anything above average.

So yummy!! And I find their food as good or even better than what you’d get in Malaysia! Generous servings as well! And great chilli, soup and Chinese tea accompaniment. Went back today and was so disappointed to hear that they no longer serve their Prawn Noodle Soup! I felt it was one of the best in Perth! Ordered their Chilli Pan Mee instead today - very yummy!
