"Nak makan Nasi Arab dengan harga yang murah? Anda ditempat yang betul. Dengan harga RM8.00 sahaja anda dah boleh merasai set Nasi Arab Ayam berbanding di kedai makan yang lain di mana rata-rata menjualnya pada harga RM12-14 sepinggan. Hari yang saya pergi ke sini, saya bernasib baik sebab hampir-hampir sahaja nasinya habis dijual. Set Nasi Arab Kambing lagi awal sudah habis jadi saya order set Nasi Arab Ayam. Rasa nasinya memang berasa rempah ratusnya. Ada rasa pedas sedikit daripada lada hitam. Tak perlukan kuah, dah sedap makan begitu sahaja. ps : Lama dah nak try makan di sini tapi selalu tengok tutup saja. Kebetulan lalu di depan kedai, nampak buka apalagi singgah makan terus laa.."
