KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 3 – If you visit the iconic Yut Kee Restaurant here, you will notice a makeshift stall at the entrance run by an elderly lady who is known as Madam Choo.

Although her shop is actually located just nearby, she is at this stall since it has more foot traffic from visitors who pop over to the kopitiam.

You will find a mix of items all prepared by her. There's an assortment of bak chang which has quite a following; she was featured one time on television for these.

You will also find a small selection of cooked Nyonya food. There are also various sambal, sauces and pickled calamansi limes.

Even though Madam Choo is a Hainanese from Langkawi, she picked up her Nyonya cooking skills when she worked as a cook at a Peranakan restaurant in Bangsar.

For the food I tried, there were some hits and misses. Most of her food items tend to have a milder taste so if you're looking for bold flavours, her food won't suit your palate.

You can pick up a packet of nasi kunyit or turmeric glutinous rice served with chicken curry (RM10 per packet) for breakfast or lunch. It's a pretty generous portion that could easily feed me for two meals.

You get a nice soft glutinous rice accompanied with a rather mediocre tasting chicken curry with potatoes. Portions are generous as you get three pieces of chicken with two pieces of potatoes.
