About Jade Kingdom

Searing woks deliver uncompromising Malaysian hawker staples at this longstanding Heidelberg Heights institution. Operating for over twenty years and recently revamped with retro pastel tones, the dining room is stewarded by the family’s second generation. Diners lean on the kitchen for big portions built for sharing, from sizzling hotplate beancurd and beef rendang to flat rice noodles tossed over blistering heat. The signature KL hokkien mee arrives slippery and dark, loaded with fish cakes, sambal, and crisp pork lard.

  • Hawker-Style Wok Hei: Char kueh teow and KL hokkien mee hit the table with dark, smoky wok char and crunchy pork lard.
  • Multi-Decade Family Roots: Run by the family's second generation, serving generous shareable dishes in a refreshed, pastel-accented space.
  • Communal Feasting: Hearty serves of beef rendang, sizzling beancurd, and fried rice suit relaxed group feasts.

  • Generous Portions Built for Sharing

    Substantial portion sizes across rice, noodle, and stir-fry mains make it natural to share multiple dishes around the table.

    Better to come here with friends/family since the portion is quite big.
