"Not usually a big fan of Lei Cha, but everything we ordered was surprisingly good! We tried the Lei Cha dry noodles, otah otah fries, Lei Cha peanut butter toast, and pink guava matcha drink. A tip—make sure to order your drink through the hole for a little surprise!"

"Amazing experience! Went for the hole in the wall matcha and I must say that the drinks are super delicious! Super interesting concept as well. Went back for another drink the next day, I love it!"

"I wanted to try the hole in the wall but it was raining so I dined in. What I liked about it : A lot of options to choose from. The cashier who took my order was kind enough to make suggestions based on what I liked. : The food was delivered in a timely manner. : The drink I ordered was nice. What can be improved : Just for me, the food that came need to have more taste. They should have basic condiments in the table for customers to adjust. : It is on the high/expensive side for me given the taste and size."

"Literally a hole in a wall! Love the concept and it was really fun ordering. Matcha is yummy too. If u r in Chinatown, come here for a stop! Pick ur drink from the cards, ring the tambourine, place the order and make payment. Then wait for your buzzer to buzz to collect ur drink!"

"Come here for lei cha, the portion is ok, maybe a bit small for big eater. Overall taste is mid, lei cha soup is a bit watery. Ordered the signature one, many vegetables, it comes with brown rice. You can also customise based on your preference. Not many during peak hour for lunch."

"Jamboo is honestly one of the coolest, most unexpected spots I’ve tried in the city. The drinks are great, but the experience is what makes it unforgettable - they hand your order out through a little window using a monster claw and it’s absolutely hilarious. Such a fun surprise and totally adds to the charm. The whole concept is playful, creative, and unlike anything else, and the vibe around the café is super chill. If you’re into quirky spots and good drinks with a side of entertainment, this place is a must-visit. Loved it!"

"A cute little spot that I am glad I came across on social media and was able to then drop by and get served lemonade by the most gruesome yet fun hand! The crispy cauliflower bites made by Abdul Rahman were the highlight of the day! The perfect seasoning and amazing sauce. He is such a bright and kind vibe whose hospitality was one of our best experiences in Malaysia! Kudos to all the people working at this cafe and helping make our visit with delicious drinks and food"
