Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia｜Fong Lye Coffee & Teahouse (1 Utama) 蓬萊咖啡與茶房

My 4th time eating here, and it's just been a positive experience every time. Everything is almost perfect at this restaurant, even the foreign staff are so well trained. The food uses the best ingredients, and nothing is compromised in their cooking, resulting in some of the best tasting dishes. Paying that little more gets you some real quality food. 2 persons meal, expect to pay around RM100. But no regrets. My only comment is that the 2-person seats are too close and need a bit more distance

Having dined at their other branches in Mid Valley and also Sunway Pyramid, Fong Lye finally opens its doors in 1 Utama. Taking over another restaurant which used to sit in the same spot, it’s just next to Zara on the Ground floor. This beautifully decorated restaurant simply oozes a very chill atmosphere, and with really generous spacing between tables, one wonders why they don't fit in more tables especially when it gets crowded during weekends and there's a queue. The menu is pretty much similar to what it was before with more additions There is an extensive range of items but most diners opt for the set meals which are good value for money and gives you a soup, the main dish and normally a side dish as well. The combination varies from set to set. The food here is very good and I was glad that my BBQ Pork set was still available and was just as good as ever. We also ordered a fish set, a pork cutlet cheese and also black pepper pork set as well. All were excellent. Notably, the soup that came with the sets was also very, very good. The watercress soup with one (just one) meatball was superb. Prices have gone up considerably, and sets are now priced at about RM40 - RM45 on average. But for the superb ambience and food quality, it's not surprising why it's still attracting so many people to dine here. A must visit for those who have not tried.

The environment was comfortable. The place seems to be quite popular but staff are still attentive. I ordered the mixed porridge and hot and sour soup. Food was delicious and comforting. I would definitely come here again and might even order the same thing!
