The best breakfast suggestion place is at Fook Yuen is available at three places that is Damai, Kolombong and also at Jalan Sagunting(Gaya street). Nothing best compared to a cup of coffee and a piece of toasted bread in the early morning or evening tea. Head over to Fong Ip café for breakfast on a Sunday morning.
