We came at lunch time and though the restaurant didn't have many customers, the food was surprisingly tasty. We ordered a Peking duck set which came with duck soup, fried rice, and noodles. Very rich flavours. I particularly enjoyed the duck fried rice. The serving sizes were big and very worth the price. The staff were kind too. I recommend!

New fave fish and chips place! I wouldn't eat the gravy again, it was too thick and kinda chunky but the fish and chips were amazing! The fish was fresh, the potato cakes were crispy and delicious! They even did the Aussie classic and chucked in a few extra potato cakes for free. And they use animal fat to fry which is 10x better than canola or seed oils only. Tastes so much better and is actually better for you, so it's almost guilt free. Highly recommend this place and will be back again! Great value for money too especially in this economy.

Jalan Alor is one of the newer Malaysian restaurants, which also comes highly recommended by some, although reading some of the reviews it seems everyone's experiences can be quite mixed.
Our summary:
The Good 👍
- Cheap dishes at $10 for most and $15.50 for noodles. 💰
- Serving size is average, so fairly good value for money. 🍽️
- Authentic Kopitiam vibe
- The CKT was actually quite decent with wok hey
The OK
- The Sawarak Kolo mee was just a lot of noodles 🍜 with some meat, no veggies. I guess for $10 I can't complain but here I am writing about this.
- Fish head curry was decent.
- the Satay had a different peanut sauce flavour than what we would normally have elsewhere. Not bad, just different.
The bad 😞
- The KL Hokkien mee wasn't great. Too sweet and had a very very fishy (squid) after taste. Also took about 30mins to come.
- the Sweet Chee Chong Fun was again very sweet but and the noodles were stuck together and hard in some places. Tbh if not for the stuck hard noodles this dish would have been ok to good.
Overall, if you are looking for cheap Malaysian eats and aren't too fussed on quality, this place is worth a try. If you want something which is actually good, there are many other places in and around east of Melbourne!

This is the greatest dumpling restaurant in all the world! Our go to takeaway food always.
Vegetarian dumplings are always gross mix of vegetables that no vegetarian actually wants or appreciates but Little Dumpling has made the most DELICIOUS vegetarian dumpling of all time - being the zucchini and sesame dumplings.
The spring onion pancake is the best I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried so many). My husband raved about the pork and spring onion dumplings. This restaurant is an absolute gem and the best restaurant in the Eastern Suburbs.
Photo taken after devouring half the pancakes because I just couldn’t wait.

We ordered stir fried beef with naan bread and stir fried spicy squid. They are absolutely delicious and the ingredients are fresh! Highly recommended! Many customers came after us during dinner time, it is popular so you will expect a reasonable waiting time.
