Fodor's Expert Review Chop Jing Chew

To eat like a local, you can't do better than this bustling restaurant, café, and bakery, which has been offering traditional specialties since 1946. While it may not win any style awards, it hardly matters when you catch the fragrance of freshly baked buns filled with a variety of meats, fish, vegetables, or cheese, like the roti kacang kahwin or the roti kuning. For a substantial meal, the zhi ma kway teow, a huge dish of rice noodles and fish in a rich sweet sauce, is a popular favorite, or just watch what the locals are ordering and go for whatever looks good.
