Ever wonder why some establishments thrive for decades while others close their doors after as little as six months? That’s the million dollar question… WHY? Well, to me, its all about getting everything to come together. Service, ambience, food, and plain good hospitality. JC is one of those establishments that has been around for a long time. They got the right formula.
Waiters that have super memories and get your orders right, the first time, WITHOUT writing them down. Specialties like roti kuning kawin, zeema kwayteow, hot buns, and a pretty decent teh tarik. Most importantly, that ambience which cannot be recreated elsewhere… the noise, the occasional smoker, the waiters’ shouting the orders… and the old man behind the counter… yes, those to me are the hallmarks of JC’s continued success 
This chap is a fellow regular… every Friday heheh
Curry puff is another favorite among patrons, especially piping hot fresh from the oven
OK this last one wasn’t taken at JC… It was taken at Yayasan Complex in town
Z’s always a sight for sore eyes heheh… Have a nice weekend everyone!
Strange enough I was there a few days ago and asked the same question. hehee.. I agree with your analysis. They had the place going like clockwork….. and that is missing in some eateries.
My hubby n i are also regular “friday morning” patrons of JC. Before we go for our bowling practice it’s a must breakfast at JC n we always see u n ur “shooting” gangs there hehe
This sunday JC lagi? hehe
Pablo: thats right… perhaps some of these so called up-market eateries have a thing or two to learn from humble JC
cdah: Bowling?? wahhh I havent bowled in a looooong time! Do wave and say hi next time
Headache: awu eh! and bring exact change for your shirts hahaha
Aku membayar udah utk baju2 ku, yay yay !!!
I’m debt free. 
InsyaAllah i’ll asked my hubby to wave n say hi for me next time we r in JC!
Yesterday we had bowling tournament organised by UNISSA (Universiti Islam Sultan Shariff Ali) for higher institutions. My hubby n i were in the UBD staff teams n our teams were both no.1!
Why dont u join us next time we bowl? hehe
As in Seria, serving the same kind of food for decades and yet still popular. Other places focus on the wrong things.
Jewelle: in Seria it’d have to be Soi Heng coffee shop for me
Jan still owes me a full breakfast there! Hahah
Hahah, kalau c Jan Shim ada blanja, aku mau ikut eh. Mana tau teperancit ia punya skillz arah ku …
Heheheh
I’ve never been there. But our former boss used to belanja us their roti inti kacang. Yummy! Anyway, sorry for asking but the restaurant is halal, ya? I will def go there when I return.
Roti kuning is best there! Hey i know that first guy in the pic. We go there after work some days. And friday morning. Maybe i was there that day man…

Mamat: wah.. u rub shoulders with the high-flyers eh? U must be one yourself heheh
syafiq: waaaahhh you know so many people ah!
Ooooo.. Let’s not play this naming games please!!! Best to leave it to the discretion of the webmaster cos you won’t get a prize for doing so.
Anon: I agree 100%
Let’s not take away that certain mystique of a nameless photograph shall we?
