Jalan Alor Ferntree Gully

What a fantastic find! Jalan Alor in Ferntree Gully truly delivered an authentic Malaysian dining experience that did not disappoint my taste buds. The food was full of flavour, cooked to perfection, and incredibly authentic,just like what you’d find on the streets of Malaysia. Most meals are around $10, which is amazing value considering the quality and portion sizes. It’s a great spot if you’re after a delicious, satisfying meal that won’t break the bank. The place is always busy (a good sign!), and the staff are friendly and welcoming. I was extremely impressed with the quality, authenticity, and overall experience. If you love Malaysian cuisine or want to try something new, I 100% recommend checking this place out. A quick find, but one I’ll definitely be returning to!

Jalan Alor Malaysian Kitchen, Ferntree Gully Reviewed on 17/1/2025 Nestled away from the bustling and competitive Malaysian restaurant scene, Jalan Alor Malaysian Kitchen in Ferntree Gully offers a delightful escape with its affordable prices and authentic flavours. This hidden gem manages to keep costs low without compromising on quality, making it a standout choice for Malaysian cuisine enthusiasts. My visit took place on a weekday afternoon, and the café was buzzing with the lively chatter of Malaysian and Singaporean patrons, easily identifiable by their accents. The setting is reminiscent of a traditional kopi tiam, with its clean and welcoming environment, small tables, plastic stools, and paper cups for water, creating a cozy and unpretentious dining experience. Despite the trend of some restaurants cutting down on serving fried noodles due to high labour costs, Jalan Alor proudly offers a wide array of Malaysian favourites. From the aromatic Chow Kuey Teow (CKT) and Hokkien Mee to the flavourful Mee Goreng, nasi lemak, curry, and laksa dishes, the menu is a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Malaysia. The CKT, with its strong Wok Hei and generous sprinkling of dried pork bits, was a delight that could satisfy even the most discerning CKT critic. The Singapore Hokkien Mee, distinct from its KL counterpart which is fried with dark soy sauce, was equally impressive. Although I usually prefer KL Hokkien Mee, I found the Singapore version to be just as delicious. I suggest that a little extra gravy could improve the texture and enhance the flavour further. One of the most appealing aspects of Jalan Alor is its pricing. The dishes are more affordable compared to many competitors, making it well worth the trip to savour the authentic flavors without breaking the bank. In conclusion, Jalan Alor Malaysian Kitchen is a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Malaysian cuisine in a relaxed and friendly setting. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this café promises a memorable dining experience that will leave you coming back for more.

This is the best Malaysian food I have had outside Malaysia !!! Do not let the interior decor deter you. Although very bright, in a 1980’s pop culture kinda way, the restaurant was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The prices were as unbelievably good as the food and the service was quick and friendly. I would highly recommend eating here or ordering from their takeaway menu.

Food is good. Some items such as the white chicken rice, ku lo mee and curry mee are such great value for $$. The place is really busy during the weekend lunch time, and expect to wait up to 40 50 minutes.
