Lan Je serves up Chinese food that’s pork-free and their not-to-be-missed feature food is the steamed fish. The motto at Lan Je’s is ‘one fish, one person’ which is a great excuse to not share your fish with your dinner mates. With an attractive price point of under RM20 per fish, you can also customise how spicy you’d like your fish to be made. Other dishes include a range of tofu, vegetables, and chicken dishes.

Lan Je’s first branch is located in Rawang and today, it has expanded across the Klang Valley and they can be found at Kota Damansara, Kota Kemuning, Puchong, Cheras, Selangor and Desa Aman Puri.

Opening hours of every branch varies so it’s best to do a cursory Google search for the branch you’d like to visit for their details.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”607″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]RESTAURANT CAPITOL – NASI DAGANG KELANTAN
