A rendezvous diner for my family some 50 years ago which still maintained its simple and reasonable Hainanese food. A must have fried beehoon, beef steak, chicken chop ,our all time favourite for breakfast, lunch or high tea.
This typical coffee shop decor did not change over the years, but what matter most to us was the delightful and sumptuous meal though the serving portion has srinked slightly.
I missed the cake counter in my recent visit as they no longer sell cakes( their better cake was the best i tasted)
It was sad to be told that many fimiliar faces who have served my family are no longer around.
For my son, Yat sun food was all about Taiping and as for me, Yut Sun food was all about happy memories of good food cherished till todate.

Hainanese chicken chop here is good as well, similar to Yut Sun. This outlet is cleaner and with Air conditioning.

This place is probably one of my Top Pick Best Hailam Food overall in Malaysia. The Mee Hailam has a good Wok Hei taste and the Kuey Teow Beef tastes perfectly with the soft and tender noodles and beef. The Hailam Chicken Chop is well balanced taste but slightly soggy on the batter. Overall this place is a must try when visiting Taiping guys.

The air conditioning at this establishment ensures a comfortable dining experience, allowing patrons to enjoy their meals in a cool and pleasant environment.

Their chicken chop rice, priced at RM11, offers a satisfying crunch with its crispy texture. However, it's worth noting that the gravy accompanying the dish is somewhat diluted, which may affect the overall flavor profile for some customers.

For those craving a hot cup of coffee, the aroma is smooth and inviting, promising a delightful caffeine fix to accompany your meal.

Furthermore, the new yat sun are notably cleaner and brighter compared to the old location, enhancing the dining experience with a fresh and welcoming ambiance. Despite the change in surroundings, the flavor of the dishes remains largely consistent, offering a familiar taste for returning customers.

Another is, while there are minor points to consider such as the consistency of the gravy, overall, this establishment provides a satisfying dining experience with crispy chicken chop rice, aromatic coffee, and an improved atmosphere. .

Horrible steak. It was just bits of steak held together by lots of flour!

Food offering has much to be improved while the service and atmosphere is not bad. I had Hainanese chicken chop (RM14) and missus had Chicken Chop with Hailam mee (RM18). I also had Rose Syrup drink (RM2.50).
Portion wise, it's absolutely small for the price we paid while my missus had a saltish noodles which resembles more of Tai Luk mee.
Service wise, it's not bad and it's air conditioned. Toilet was clean as well. I think the owner should increase portion size for RM14 and RM18. Gravy was too watery for my liking. Can be improved further.

Ordered the fish and chips , it was really bad. Hardly any fish more batter than anything else, as you can see in the photo. The boss didn’t even bother to say anything , just got the waiter to manage and take the dish back to the kitchen. There is nothing worst than bad customer service. My husband ordered the hainanese chicken chop which was only so so . Will not be visiting again for sure

I am inclined to agree with many of the reviewers here, it's probably one of the best place that offers delish Hailam style meals. Tried the hor fun, bee hoon, and the hainanese chicken chop. The stir fries has a nice wok Hei to them. Pair these with green chili and sambal, wow... Very delish combo. Will definitely be back to try the extensive menu. Service is also fast and friendly.

Take note that there are 2 units of Yat Sun. I tried the food from the air con unit, which is diagonally across the street from the non-ac unit.

The operating hours are different though. The non-air cond unit starts at 8 and closes at 5pm.
