Have been frequenting this establishment with my late father since the 1980's although it was under different managements during those years. Loved the taste of the soup, slightly thicken with herbs,spices and some thickening agent. The taste did not differ much throughout the years and have always been a favourite with the locals. They serve various parts of lamb,chicken and cow, mostly the internal organs such as the tripe,lungs and not forgetting the tongue. There are other establishments serving the same type of soup around Kuala Lumpur but none can beat this nondescript little shop tucked in an alleyway in the middle of Chow Kit Road area.

First time trying..buying tapau..delicious soup..thick..suitable for Bengali bread.. I chose International Soup priced at RM 12, Set of Bengali Bread 3 pcs @ RM 2.. (in the soup there are spare chicken parts namely young eggs, cut chicken and beef internal organs with pieces of meat) Total RM 14 (suitable for 2 people) Ok, worth it..lots of filling and more gravy..

I like the ambient here, a bit calmer. The soup is great & so does the laksa. The soup can be eaten with bread or any other choices. Try the uritan (chicken egg not fully develop - the yellow one is soup), it is not bad too.
