KSL City Mall
老洲海鲜粥 specialises in seafood porridge (海鲜粥), a Cantonese-style dish where fresh seafood is simmered in a rich, flavourful rice porridge base. The recommended dish is the eight treasures (八宝海鲜粥), featuring a combination of seafood ingredients in one pot. Another highlight is the giant grouper head (龙趸头), described as large enough to be a memorable dish. The restaurant uses claypot (瓦煲) preparation for its signature fish porridge, ensuring the broth develops a deep, concentrated flavour. The menu includes various seafood porridge combinations, steamed fish dishes, and other Cantonese-style seafood preparations. The restaurant caters primarily to Chinese-speaking diners, with the menu and ordering in Mandarin.
老洲海鲜粥 opens daily, typically from late morning to late evening. The restaurant is located at 35, Jalan Serigala, directly opposite KSL City Mall.

The noodle bowl was massive (gimmick), but the taste was unremarkable and average, offering nothing special or exciting. The flavors were bland and lacked depth (felt nothing but msg), leaving nothing much to be desired in terms of dining and tasting. The environment, however, stood out as the most disappointing aspect. Cramped and chaotic seating arrangements made the dining experience uncomfortable, and the overall atmosphere was messy and unsettlingly. The restaurant seemed poorly organized, creating an uncomfortable vibe for diners. To make matters worse, the toilets were dirty, old and inadequately maintained, further detracting from the experience. It absolutely a typical tourist trap, designed solely to exploit visitors without delivering quality service or a pleasant environment. Adding to the frustration, the entire operation appeared to be managed by foreign workers who seemed untrained in hospitality. The cashier, in particular, was notably unfriendly, exuding a lack of professionalism and courtesy. Such behavior only highlighted the restaurant’s disregard for providing a welcoming atmosphere to its patrons. As if these issues weren’t enough, the restaurant does not accept credit card payments, which is not only inconvenient but also baffling in this day and age. For a restaurant situated in a tourist-heavy area, this lack of payment options is a glaring oversight. All in all, the visit was thoroughly disappointing. From the average food to the chaotic environment and lack of basic amenities, this restaurant is one I will forever be banned in the future. In fact, the entire area fails to inspire a return visit. With such high rating in reviews totally a baffled and jokes!!
