This is an open letter to Penangites who were spotted checking out Yut Kee,KL out of curiousity.Not meant for KLites.
Dear Penangites who intend to check Yut Kee out in the future,
You know what?Penang has better.You know why?Because this shop is actually known for it's cheap western chops which most shops in KL absolutely flop at.If KLites want to eat chops they look for hainanese run ones like these,or go to Coliseum(where almost everyone is dead oredy),L'Coq Deur (which is no more existent) or Mimaland(where some might be still alive),but we have so many lah,we can eat in macalister road,fettes park etc etc,throw one stone also good but in KL ah they just ain't good at the batter and sauce.The people come for butter cakes but they are of the oily moist variety which you won't like..The noodles are too salty and frankly ok only lah.Haiya the other dishes are just mediocre lah,Penang has better.Honestly lah.
Reason why KL people like to linger here is because....
One the crowd very up wan for coffeeshop standard,
Two the fact that this is real hainanese not like Penang ones which bluff people.
Three the chairs and tables are so nice and cool and old and well sat on,
Four because it's got an old upstairs eating area with nice old stairs and windows to look out at the road.
Five,cos Mimaland too far,Coliseum more stuck up and L' Coq Deur no more.
Six,here they can park in the backlane and when they actually break the law by parking on the road shoulder funnily most times the police and council seems to turn a blind eye to this area.
Then finally Seven,because last time,long long ago they had very old cooks but now they mostly residing in some urn or under some headstone already.
The taukay soh is so haughty,I suspect she thinks she is some Hongkong megastar and as such treats her customers to seeing her latest specs and painted toenails and big red fish lips.They are authentic by the way,not botoxed,that's why they're getting floppier due to gravitational pull.
Madame Megastar never glances at her hubby but likes to checkout and be extra smiley and chatty to good looking men because she stills thinks she is that hot broad from 30/40 years ago.
Her hubby mostly hangs out with other men at other tables cos they pay him more attention than his two storeys down from Tokio Hotel hairstyle 'hawt' old broad wife.
Penangites,why you wanna try out this shop for?It's gonna make your kids think you're weird for making the journey all the way down here for something they can get better at home and make your old folks smile upside down,not to mention allow the taukaysoh to go for hourly changes of steamy sexy pedicure colours.
Please lah,come back to Penang and eat lah.Our most ok only shop ah can be better than this lah.
